He calls this out in a later paragraph, mentioning that in the modern discourse it's too difficult to not. "(It’s almost impossible to actually have a conversation where you stop using the term “black.” So I hope, you know, when I say black and white, I’m not implying that I believe those terms are true. I’m just using it because that’s the way we speak about people.)"
- oska 8y agoThank you for pointing that out. I did read a good part of the interview but obviously missed that bit. But I disagree with him here (while finding a lot of the rest of what I read insightful). How we speak about people is not fixed and change can come from us choosing to speak differently. Not that I'm suggesting we force others to speak differently, but we can make the change ourselves (which will be heard by others and perhaps picked up).
