I Am None Of This

RACE HAS NO BASIS IN REALITY Using the concept of race is a bit like categorising cars by their colour rather than their make. Or saying that as a cherry turns from green to red, it’s turning from one type of fruit into another. The historical concept of race, as we know it, came about as a means to further empire and slavery: to make it palatable. The concepts that were invented to explaining and justify both exploitation and apartheid are so ingrained, that even the advent of modern genetics can’t wash away these primitive modes of thoughts – they are still with us, alive and kicking.
