In his allegorical tale "Racism's Secret Bonding," legal scholar Derrick Bell imagined the occurrence of fourth of July "racial data storms." During these storms, the consciousness of each and every White American was flooded with full information about the slave trade, slavery, lynching, Jim Crow, and contemporary discrimination, as well as a powerful emotional appreciation for the human suffering entailed by these conditions. Bell's "racial data storms" created great turmoil, anxiety, and demands for action. These demands focused on preventing future waves of "racial data storms" but also sought significant progressive policy intervention against discrimination and inequality. Bell mused that by the time the "racial data storms" had stopped, they "left behind them the greatest social reform movement America had ever known" (1992, p. 150
