Will we ever get to that point? Untrue. The nefariousness of systemic racism is it does not depend upon individuals to be overtly, willfully racist. The racism is embedded into our systems by past racists, and those systems will never be purged of racism until active measures are taken by people who come after those racists who started it. This is at the core of why conservatives are pissed off over CRT (the ones who understand at least some of CRT, anyway). To purge our systems of racism, it requires people who benefit from that system to acknowledge their privilege and actually put in hard work to effect the positive change of creating a society with no systemic racism.* This actually isn't a goal of CRT, because completely eliminating systemic racism is unrealistic. But it's the dream, I guess. --- PotD Paradiso* www.potdparadiso.net <cite>wydrah posted [p:956612324] in People on ...
