“We tend to demand more of #Western states and societies, implying that they are enlightened and should know better. Counterintuitively perhaps, there’s something #patronizing and #discriminatory in the very assumption that the #Russians — or #Indians, or #Chinese, or #Cubans, for that matter — have a lesser moral, cultural, and societal #capacity to grasp and grapple with #racial #injustice, (…)

Paez was arraigned for the latter.
