I fear our country is losing the battle to fight and end racism. Racism may never truly be ended, but our will to fight and end is being lost to our new fondness over creating new social segregation. This neo-segregation isn't about divided bathrooms or who sits in the back of the bus. This new segregation is about creating social rules, values, morals, and beliefs that are allowed and not allowed for certain ethnic groups.
For Example:
Justin Beiber started growing dreadlocks: AAs claimed racial appropriation and therefore Justin cut his dreadlocks. I think he may have even apologized for it. It used to be that imitation was the highest form of flattery, not anymore, you're a racist.
AAVE or African American Vernacular English is words that are created by AAs. However, more and more commentary is coming out against white people using AAVE. The AA culture has a lot to offer. If whites like the created slang, why can't it be seen again as flattery and acceptance of black culture. To keep language, which has evolved since inception as something you own racially, is a new segregation.
Can Non-Black People Use AAVE? — The Black Explosion.
Social behavior. Everyone knows about Will Smith and the slap. I honestly feel that most people would agree that what Will did, in the context of the evening and the historical, comedic nature of the hosts, was wrong. However, commentary from certain backgrounds point the finger at white people and what is referred to as "White Gaze" or "respectability politics", which is the idea that the only way to behave in society and obtain respect is to act as white people do.

Individuals should be held accountable for their actions, regardless of the audience. If Will Smith's actions had been done at the Apollo in front of a predominant black audience, is it more acceptable? Proper social behavior, manners, etiquette, laws, rules, etc., shouldn't be bound, restricted, or changed based on one's color. What Will Smith did was wrong, regardless of his skin.
More recently, Jack Del Rio and the dust up he is causing is outlandish. Why can't any man, regardless of skin color, compare the so called insurrection to the violence, looting, and criminality of BLM rioters? Neo-segragation.
Hypocritical racial rules are not creating social harmony but rather are creating an imaginary line of racial segregation and social discord.
All of us have to do better. White people, stop being racist fucktards, please! African American, stop being racist fucktards please!

What does 'respectability politics' mean? Will Smith's Oscars slap sparks debate over policing Black behavior
Some responses to Will Smith's slap are being criticized for playing into "respectability politics." Here's what that means.
More recently, Jack Del Rio and the dust up he is causing is outlandish. Why can't any man, regardless of skin color, compare the so called insurrection to the violence, looting, and criminality of BLM rioters? Neo-segragation.
