Fed Up

Jesse Taylor:

Post-racialism’s advocates usually fall into two broad camps: minority advocates who want us to move past the restrictive effects of race on society, and racist white people who are really fed up with having to restrain their awesome jokes about how Sasha Obama crip walks to school every day.  Post-racialism can only work with a full and complete understanding of race’s effects on society coupled with a conscious effort to remedy those effects; anything else is just providing cover to racism.
