The premise is flawed - beyond wishful thinking, do you have any reasons to believe in equal capabilities across e.g. all racial groups for any given activity? Because there is vastly more research showing the contrary.
> They’re going to see “race blindness” for what it is—an attempt to sweep under the rug generations of oppression because it’s uncomfortable and we’d rather pretend “we’re all good now, right?”
Because at some point, we're gonna have to move on from this perpetual oppression and victimhood mentality. What solutions do you propose to correct "generations of oppression" that do not oppress other racial groups?
