“People think that if we don’t talk about racism, than we are no longer racist. The problem is when we don’t talk about racism, that’s what’s disrespectful. That’s saying that my opinion, my position, my experience, doesn’t matter. If you respect me, you ask me what I think and then we can have an engagement about it.” —Otha Day
WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT RACISM
Racism is real, but race is an invented concept. We are not so different. We may be different colors on the outside, but on the inside we are far more alike than we are different. It’s a matter of getting past the initial reaction that we are a different race so we are going to act racist toward each other. But, if we can see something joyful in one another that is meaningful, then we can move beyond feeling racist.
