“I am not a racist” is not the same as “there is no racism”
For the longest time, I thought about racism in an individual context: if I didn’t express racist feelings, or see them expressed, it was hard to imagine that “racism” was widespread, or if it was real, that it was my responsibility to address it. But “I am not racist” can be true and “racism is widespread and a problem” can also be true.
