    What?

    When have I ever argued that racism has not had effect on black communities?

    Systematic racism is very real this is just not an example of that.

    What exactly do think my views are?

    I'm not making a claim about you but @Os Trigonum

    Maybe I should have used different phrasing. I never said you don't believe systemic racism doesn't exist. You are African American if I recall correctly so I know when I discuss these things I'm outside looking in.

    @Os Trigonum just found a small sliver of you disagreeing with a specific example and I'm just saying that of course he would agree this one time with you on this subject when it's the one time you are saying it isn't an example of systemic racism when you usually acknowledge it and probably experience it.

    thought this was interesting. an argument that the "discourse of individualism" itself contributes to the perpetuation of racism.

    Nope.

    Everybody is affected by these stories and this woman is just causing further division.

    It's people like this that make me sick. Just fanning the flames.
