A picture that portrays Trumpist America

Sometimes a single image is capable of condensing the spirit of an era. In this case, the photograph by Cheney Orr, of the Reuters agency, in which a young black girl is seen surrounded by white supremacists with their faces covered in a subway car, perfectly captures what it means to belong to a minority in the midst of Trumpism. Furthermore, the fact that the image was captured during the celebrations in Washington of the 250th anniversary of the independence of the United States gives it even more value, because it shows that, a quarter of a millennium later, what was the most advanced democratic experiment in its world has not yet resolved what has always been its pending issue: the real equality of all human beings, regardless of their race, gender, or religion.
