Abazigal@Thapsyrensays You are still expecting people to act against their own self interests. It’s never going to happen.
Shine@Abazigal @Thapsyrensays but it is in our interest. Creating a better society for everyone is something we all benefit from.
@shine For context, I come from a country (Singapore) where racial harmony is implemented as a top-down approach. It’s taught in schools, it’s enforced by law, we still encounter racist incidents, but at least it’s clear where we stand from a policy perspective.
My opinion is that racism in the US is structural, and structural problems often don’t have individual solutions. Feel free to disagree, but you are basically asking the foxes to go against their nature and not eat the hens.
