Thank you for that insight -- very interesting. Do you think that we can overcome the mistaken impression that no affirmative action equals racism? Treating everyone the same, with no special considerations for race, would indicate 'no' racism to me.

I don't know. I guess it depends on people's backgrounds and mindsets. I think it is very difficult to change the mind of a person who is still on the Dim plantation. For most of them, racism is in everybody, every institution, every process. For them, you can't escape it. It's like being a damn feminist.
