As Donald Trump changes his tune on cutting taxes for the rich, House Republicans are scrambling to save their personal tax cuts.
Corporate America and the rich have used anti-racism to distract from broader inequality. Ensuring that every racial group has identical access to society’s limited resources does nothing to change an economy that exploits the many to enrich the few.
