Well said, thank you. I make a big deal about racialism to try to bring these issues into focus. We can’t make any progress without exposing the myth of race and how power structures have used the myth to keep control over society. Race is one tool of oppression among others.

Too much anti racism activism is of the meme flinging politics of our time, int his case, race against race. There’s not enough deep thinking, not enough meaningful dialogue, and not enough learning of history and thinking. I’m stunned by how few anti racism activists and writers are aware of Black philosophers and what they’ve written about racism. Like you say, we have to consider race categorization to be able to move beyond it. The resources are there if people would look.
