Eddie Glaude: ‘We Like to Think of the Racist as the Loud Racist, the Roseanne Barr, the Donald Trump, KKK Person’

EXCERPT:

GLAUDE JR.: "So we like to think of the racist as the loud racist, the Roseanne Barr, the Donald Trump, the KKK person. But the racial habits are very different. We learn race just simply by navigating one’s environment. just think about it. People learn race by driving around their city. Because the city has been zoned in such a way where black people live on one side, white people live on the other, brown people live in another. And then as you drive around, you see different resource allocation. You see as you cross the tracks in the south, you’re from the south, you know what happens. The neighborhood suddenly looks different."
