Now that’s a strawman, because I never claimed black history month equated to reverse racism. I only pointed to it as an example of how as a society we try not to deny the racial injustices of the past and make it a point to teach all public school students about it. I was using it to refute the idea that denial is still the main problem regarding race.

It’s not a strawman in that I wasn’t speaking to you specifically about your exact points, especially since this is a free form open forum of multiple nuanced conversations. You never said ‘black history month… reverse racism.’

Ignorance and fear is the main problem regarding race. Denial is a symptom of that.
