To be perceived as an individual, to not be associated with anything negative because of your skin color, she notes, is a privilege largely afforded to white people; although most school shooters, domestic terrorists, and rapists in the United States are white, it is rare to see a white man on the street reduced to a stereotype. Likewise, people of color often endure having their views attributed to their racial identities

My dad told me:
If you look for racists- you can find them anywhere. If you look for people of goodwill- you will find them everywhere. Which you look for is a personal DECISION.
I appreciate that man.

This quote doesn't just cover appearances...
Everyone generally sees what they expect to see instead of what's really there.

I don't know that I have one. It's an interesting viewpoint she represents. I do absolutely believe that many white "progressives" (hate that term) say and do all the white things...while never actually interacting IRL with any of the people they claim to care so much about.
