I always thought anti-racist meant “this will stop with me.” My understanding was that anti-racism meant, if you hear/see something racist, take a part in ending it. I think you can be anti-racist, and walk the fine line of being forgiving of unintentional missteps, while also helping people realize why what they did was wrong.
- lupire 4y agoThat view is less extreme than Kendi's position which staked a claim on the term "anti-racist" in public conversation.

Extra points if you want overrepresentation, to compensate for past imbalances. Explicitly, you must accept the proposition that the son is not only to be blamed for the sins of the father, but also to be blamed for the sins of all who share similar ancestry. Individual behavior or innocence is irrelevant.
