Actually, I have no idea what color you are. That "our" was referring to me + white people + Anne, because we're white.

If you keep making it a bloody issue, it will always be an issue.

That's true, but ignoring a large issue that is currently working to undermine and oppress people in the country I live, every day, just because people are socialized not to see it? I'm not a "minority" so speaking for them here is tentative at best, but for a HUGE number of people in this country, they can't just "see past it". That's... yeah, I think that deserves to be made an "issue" of. It's not as simple as just being colorblind and hoping it will go away.
