“I begin with a basic and ironic premise: when dealing with racism, we too often think in terms of black & white. No, not black people and white people, but rather innocence/guilt, right/wrong, good/evil. The most dangerous aspect of evil is its ability to snuff out empathy, even for its own evil bad-ass self.

Yet I ask—do our Anglo racial linguistic norms really offer the right and only lens by which to judge them?” Run of Play
