“Race is always a trigger in politics, but now a third of the nation are people of color — and their numbers are growing”

Yep. So much for the liberal utopia of every race getting along with each other which is nonsense.

Well, members of every race can certainly get along with each other individually. And they're all equal under the ideals of our system.

So, inasmuch as individuals can be both free and civil, in aggregate, every race should be able to get along together as long as a strong majority of people within each race embrace what it is to be a free American.

Just as I don't want government policy to treat me any specific way because of my race, similarly I believe that we as individuals should try to do the same.

Peaceful coexistence is an important aspect of Freedom, so hopefully the notion that "races can all get along" is neither "liberal" nor "utopian", but an important goal to strive for in a thriving, color blind America of the future.
