What about if we honor Martin Luther King Day by passing a bill mandating that in education, public access, housing and employment, people be judged (and rewarded or penalized) not on the color of their skins but on the content of their characters? In other words, why don’t we just judge people as individuals, based upon their individual histories?

Let’s embrace legal, governmental, and sociocultural colorblindedness and mandate equality of opportunity, not equality of result.

And the same thing goes for gender and sexual orientation differences, too.
