If you thought the toxic racial obsession in establishment media wouldn’t make its way into the World Cup the way it did in coverage of the World Series, you would be wrong.

The Washington Post is demanding to know, “Why doesn’t Argentina have more Black players in the World Cup?” The piece, written by Erika Denise Edwards, answered its own question, initially claiming that just 1% of the Argentine population was black. More specifically, the country has just under 150,000 black residents in a population of nearly 45.8 million. With only 26 people on a World Cup roster, it isn’t exactly clear what Edwards or the Washington Post expected to see when Argentina took the field.
