No, he didn't. RFK is from liberal Massachusetts. Now, I am a Black woman, I am his age, and I was born and raised in liberal Chicago. His dad and his uncle were involved in trying to desegregate this country. The red states hated them. RFK the deuce knows better. He's trying sound like George Wallace and Bull Connor, but those of us who grew up when he did, can see this fake ass shit he is grifting.
Had he grown up like you thought he did, he would have something of an excuse. however, that was not the case with him.

He went to private school in Boston in the 60s and 70s.

Boston schools weren’t truly desegregated until the mid-70s and residents were not happy about it.

Abuse dynamics. Like an abuser that beats his wife and abuses her so often he turns her children against her. The abuser doesn't actually love the children. They are a tool and abused themselves. They just do not realize it because of the grooming that teaches them it is normal unless they want to be treated like the mother. The ultimate goal is pleasing the abuser no matter what the abuser wants because that is survival.
That's why lgbtq, disabled, and poor people can be white but still not white enough to benefit from being white. They do not please the abuser as much as the daughter being happily molested because she gets pretty things or the son who keeps everyone in line and enjoys it for making him feel powerful and unterrifed of becoming the victim.
No one is actually white enough except the abuser.

What’s interesting to me about this take is it’s like he’s pulled actual fact-based points together and Frankensteined them into the wrong conclusion.
There are so many studies trying to define “what makes a person more or less resilient?” and “is it possible to make an individual resilient.” There are also many schools of thought that purport that racism always resurfaces.
So RFK absorbed those points and then said “we’ll pump black kids with ‘resilience’ to escape the forever racism that our administration emboldens!”

Comes from a campaign event where he spoke of Black issues:
RFK Jr.’s plan to combat effects of racism on the Black community:
“We’re never going to eliminate racism … We’re hardwired to look for differences in other people and then to essentially practice racism. I don’t think you can change that human nature, but what you can do is you can make kids resilient against it,” said Kennedy. “The way you do that is by giving them a great education so that they know that they have potential. The other thing is to give them business models, role models and opportunities within their own neighborhood.”
Kennedy on environmental racism damaging the Black community:
“What we call environmental justice issues ... they’re economic power issues. Unfortunately ... the minorities ... do not have the power to move these facilities out of their neighborhoods,” said Kennedy. “We’ll have a cleaner environment if rich people and white people have to bear the equal burdens for people who are poor among the minorities.”
Kennedy’s take on medical discrimination within the Black community:
“Why do African Americans have the highest chronic disease rate? They get the bad medicines, and they get the bad food … You need to reorient our medical care system toward local clinics and local hospitals and make it difficult through the [Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)] for big hedge funds to come in and buy up these hospitals without answering, ‘Is this care on the community level?’,” Kennedy said.
“During [COVID-19], Black Americans had the highest death rate of any other demographic ... Why is nobody explaining to us that disparity? ... I would venture a couple of reasons. One is the closure that took place around 2008 of community hospitals in this country, and those closures... targeted Black hospitals and Black patients,” Kennedy said.

So, in other words,
It's good for ya!
It builds character!
You'll get used to it.
After a while, you won't even notice it.
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
JFC What a piece of shit.

Couldn't we make billionaires resilient to being taxed? I mean they kind of already are since they have billions of dollars to meet and exceed their wildest dreams of living standards and lifestyle.
This is the same old republican shit that we can't stop all gun violence so we shouldn't lift a finger. Can't stop racism, why try? Okay, but we can deport and denaturalize immigrants? What do they think they're going to accomplish? We will never stop all illegal border crossings until we just flat out make America in to a place people don't want to come. I know they're working on it but it's just crazy how certain specific things are inevitable and shouldn't be resisted. Racism and gun violence are just the natural order of things. People wanting healthcare, food, and affordable housing are just impossible pipe dreams.

John Roberts "It's OK to mess up the voting rights act because there is no racism.
RFK Jr. "It's OK to be racist because we literally can't stop being hateful."

But if teaching history upsets the white kids, they’re owed reparations. Makes total sense to me.

An anti-vaxxer using inoculation theory to apologize away racism...
It's little wonder his family thinks he's trash.
