    Let’s pause for a word from #ThurgoodMarshall on the #constitutionality of race-aware policies:

    “During most of the past 200 years, the #Constitution, as interpreted by this #Court, did not prohibit the most ingenious and pervasive forms of discrimination against the Negro. Now, when a state acts to remedy the effects of that legacy of discrimination, I cannot believe that the same Constitution stands as a barrier”

    "#ColorblindRacism [rhetorics] also allow their users to claim their opponents are bringing race into otherwise race-neutral situations. Highlighting the codes, dog whistles, and evasions of colorblindness can bring accusations of 'pulling the race card', which [falsely] equates noticing racial inequality with perpetuating racial inequality"

    "#ColorblindRacism is a characteristic of many of the most damaging rollback of civil rights law. By co-opting civil rights language, reactionaries attempted to seize the moral high grant while undermining affirmative action, voting rights, equal employment opportunities, and school desegregation"

    Remember that #MalcolmX quote from above?

    "Once biases are built into seemingly legitimate social sorting mechanisms, no ill intent is needed--following the rules reproduces racial inequality"

    "From a scientific perspective, the #incoherence of racial categories is a weakness, undermining claims about the connection between biology and outcomes

    But for political actors, #malleable racial categories are a strength, as the boundaries of inclusion and exclusion can expand or contract according to the needs of the powerful"

    Chapter 1: clarifying "Race as a #SocialConstruct"

    Metaphor 1: Another term for #SocialConstruct is a collective hallucination that we are all acting on

    Metaphor 2: money is also a social construct, but just saying "I no longer believe in money" will not make inequality in resources go away
