[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“Our tribalistic group identities are something to overcome, not encourage.“ Yes! It’s so weird that the people who claim they don’t want race to be an issue are always making race an issue. [/quote] This country was founded on the principle of group identities (race) so it will never just 'not be an issue'.[/quote] That’s a quasi-religious argument. We aren’t living a biblical narrative; America is not bound by original sin. As race and racism are social constructs, they can be undone.[/quote] DP: Sure, they can be undone. But we're nowhere near that, and it's not going to be "not an issue" for a very long time.[/quote]
