It seems like the only thing centrists care about it overt racism. That’s a huge problem for them and they see it as “worse” than covert racism because for them racism is largely an aesthetics problem. It makes them feel icky and it hurts people’s feelings. They don’t seem to understand that for Black people racism isn’t about our feelings getting hurt. It’s about ‘how will this harm me? Will I get arrested, fired, killed? Will my kid get punished, hurt, killed?’ We aren’t worried about our feelings. We learned how to manage that by the time we left elementary school. We are trying to survive and covert racism is just as bad as overt racism and in a lot of cases it’s worse.
There is no “better racism.”
