    Apparently the dream came true for republicans. Liberals though, not so much...

    Liberals could be color blind, if they wanted.

    Against my better judgement and in opposition to what I said I would do, I turned on NPR yesterday for a few minutes for one of the news shows. The commentators were focused on the subject of immigration. A correspondent from the Republican Party convention earnestly explained to the NPR audence that Republicans draw a distinction between illegal immigrants and legal immigrants. Because, you know, that is such a foreign concept, illegal vs. legal immigration status. That needs explaining!

    They also carefully explained that Melania Trump came into this country legally, the implication being "no those Republicans are not hypocrites, now let's all be fair here."

    I could hardly turn it off fast enough.

    I don't think it matters much if someone is an illegal or legal immigrant.

    It's simple. You could stop putting people into racial boxes if you wanted.
    If you want to discuss it further, tell me why you do not.

    Are you "color blind" when it comes to race?

    Now, no more questions until you answer one.

    You, Alan, may very well be completely and totally not racist. That is possible.

    But that does not mean that everyone else is. That also does not mean that white privilege is not real.
