[quote=Anonymous]I think some people of color refuse to acknowledge systemic racism because it is so much harder to deal with than just thinking that a specific individual being a bigot. We can say okay I have a teacher this year who has a problem with me but it’s one class for one year and then I’ll move on. It’s difficult, but we can tell ourselves that it’s just 10 months. That much easier to soldier on from than the idea that there are racist policies in our public school systems that will impact us for 13 years at minimum and impact our children, too if we don’t address them. The latter can feel insurmountable. Particularly if there are few people of color in your community. The work of dismantling systemic racism wasn’t meant to be done solo. If you live in a majority white area, white allies against racism will be especially important to you. [/quote]
