Summary: In this speech Tim Wise offers an incisive critique of colorblind race logics in US politics. To be blind to color, he argues, is to be blind to the consequences of color, making it impossible to effectively address racial inequality. In the talk Wise points to employment discrimination (18:00, 32:00), racial profiling (11:00), wealth disparities (13:00), housing discrimination (22:00), and health care disparities (42:00) in a nice explication of institutional racism, and he counters the popular notion among white Americans that the United States suddenly became post-racial following the election of President Barack Obama in 2008. While this clip is rich with information on racial inequality generally, it is particularly useful in broaching the topic of colorblind racism. After watching it, students can be engaged in a discussion about the consequences of denying the existence of race, which remains a central principle of social organization irrespective of whether people talk about it or not. Note that Wise explores the topic of colorblind racism in his book Colorblind: the Rise of Post-Racial Politics and the Retreat from Racial Equity and in a nice pair of essays he wrote (here and here).

Thank you for posting his essays. I would much prefer to read than to listen, and I'm not always given the option.

I appreciate that you've provided the links.

I used to hitchhike, back in the day. When I hitchhiked with a black friend, nearly every driver who picked us up commented that they didn't notice a person's color. Strangely, no one ever made that comment to me (I'm white) when I was hitchhiking alone.

I suffered from what they called peripheral artery disease (PAD). I have been suffering for years, Me and my wife searched for a medical cure, and then we came across a testimony of a man who suffered the same and was cured by Dr Chief Lucky.

I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga Michael to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr Odunga. Well, his email is [email protected] and you can also call or Whats-app him at +2348167159012 so you guys can contact him
