Notice how 'black' is capitalized but 'white' is in lower case. This is now becoming the norm, even in newspapers.

I would love to hear the rationale for capitalizing one race over another from these woke editors. I am sure they will just string together a bunch of platitudes into a meaningless word salad that they think makes sense.

Try capitalizing white, but not black. That would be considered a 'hate crime'.

It's called capitalization racism.

It STARTED in newspapers. They defined it in their “style guides” and other writers emulate them.
