If I am understanding correctly, this is saying that being neutral and ignoring differences, you would be racist or promoting inequality. I 100% agree with this "article". When you ignore differences, you allow inequality to exist. Not everything in life just works itself out when you leave it alone, if there's a problem, fix it. If you see someone being racially discriminated, don't be neutral. By keeping walking and ignoring, you are supporting racism. If you think a change has to be made, don't wait for someone else to do so. Of you can identify the problem, you need to find a way to actively support and promote a solution. A problem as big as systemic racism will not fix itself. If you have the mindset "if I don't favor one group, or get into something that doesn't involve me, things will work themselves out" nothing will ever get done. You have to be the change you want to see. We are humans, we all have a story, our own struggles, context and we all are unique in some way. It's remarkably ridiculous to even think everyone is the same, because we're not. We are individualized and we all deserve to be treated as humans; with compassion. Viewing everyone as the same won't solve the problem, it is the problem. Sure, you could go on and on about how physically, we all have the same body structure and we're all basically the same, but you're ignoring the part of the body that is most important. Our minds and feelings. That's what makes us different and unique. When you walk past a hate crime of some sort, you cannot ignore it if jtou want to fix it. That black, mexican, white, asian human being has a story. A heart, morals, values and compassion. Don't walk past that. Don't walk down the street viewing everyone as the same, because that's impossible. Being neutral, is being hateful. Acknowledge color and their history. We're all different, but we're still humans. Start acting like it.
