  That's true... but then "racism" cannot exist. So people keep the idea on life support. Maybe culturalism is a better word.

    Not if race is a social construct.

  Oh yes. Very BLM article. Whole medicine has know for years that diseases and treatment differ by race. Saying that it does not matter will only make things worse for other races. Several labs are actively pursuing black and other minorities as volunteer for their clinical trials for this reason. If that does not matter we will never see studies looking for African americans or Asians.
