The term post-racial is puzzling:

I find the people who most use that term are the biggest racists, seemingly terrified that people will get along.

They don’t want anything “post” about racism at all.

That’s similar to the term transparency,commonly used by people covering up all kinds of stuff, including pedophilia.

How so?

Huh? Believe it or not, there actually were some people who thought Obama's election meant racism was coming to an end and the country was becoming post-racial. It seems very naive now, but there were such people back in 2008. That's what "post-racialism" was about.
