Still bending over backwards to accommodate a racial equity narrative. How about you don’t look at a child’s skin color before you decide how they are educated and instead focus on doing the best you can for each instead of trying to make everything about achieving social justice goals. Anything else is racism.

So simple! We just need to stop looking at color and all inequality will go away! I wonder why nobody's thought of that before.

We were doing that for most of the 90s and early 2000s and it was working. It's only because of grifters and agitators and "thought leaders" who try to make a buck off of divisions and needless debates that we see this resurgence in these types of politics. And underneath the veneer of race concern-trolling there's a resurgence in communist ideas trying to use the wedge of race as the basis for justifying both the redistribution of wealth and the dissolution of merit-based systems.
