Battle of Blair Mountain is a fun read, if you want a good example of America doing something really awful.
I should clarify that it's fine to be patriotic and like the country you live in, but you shouldn't deflect criticism of the nation under the guise of patriotism, nor should you ignore the very many many things that the United States has done. (And before anyone says something like "WHAT ABOUT IRAN" or China or Russia or some shit, I criticize them too. It's possible to dislike multiple regimes)
I will say, again, that what most people accuse of "black supremacy" is just so that they can try and paint the other side as hypocritical, when in actuality it's just the other side trying to paint them as hypocritical. I can with utmost certainty say that white nationalism is worse than black nationalism, because white nationalism enslaved millions for hundreds of years, and black nationalism barely exists.
If anyone does say WHAT ABOUT IRAN we could just give them the 1953 coup as a fun read too.
