    My first reaction was to wonder why anyone would care what her race is. It is the least interesting or important thing about her

          it’s mostly a problem in the situation where a person goes “Racism is over, you shouldn’t complain”

          You can’t dismiss the power that race has in people’s lives to this day because institutional racism still exists, and the consequences of the more overt institutional racism of the past are still in effect.
