About our class disscussion last night. . .

The video that we watched in class was built entirely on the premis that all human beings on earth are more alike than unlike eachother. I don't feel like any racial bias was intentional or malicious. I respect the views of those in class who were concerned about unbalanced racial content, but I'm not convinced that it is relevant enough to the topic at hand to devote significant class time to.

Let's talk about racism, injustice, where they come from and how we can change them; but let's do it from the standpoint of politcs and language. If we pick apart all of our material like this we will miss the information it is trying to convey. (Last night's video was about EP, not the paradigm of power in race)
