| 0:00.0 | We're being asked to decide between competing views of racial harmony, one that either focuses on the colorblind ideal and racial equality or the other which is about obvious difference, implicit bias, and the mission of equity. |
| 0:15.0 | And your schools cannot do both. |
| 0:18.0 | We don't have to choose between the colorblind world or the world of racial |
| 0:22.4 | essentialism. There's this other world where you can believe that there are certain things like |
| 0:26.4 | redlining and the failure for us to do reconstruction properly and all the other inequalities |
