The reason I’ve asked what topic you were talking about so many times is because you said
It’s not like I lived in a bubble, I just don’t like how conversations about this topic always become racially charged despite that never being the real problem.
I wanted to know because the topic of our conversation and the post were commenting under and the top comment we first started talking about are all things race is pertinent to. I didn’t want to assume that you had regressive, essentialist liberal ideas about race, so I asked.
Since you gave voice to your ideas about race: can you expound a little on how racially charged topics are a waste of time? We can’t change our history and remove the social construct of race from society and it has had material effects that anyone can see. Are those effects and their remuneration racially charged topics? If they aren’t, what is?
