Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
This is a little problematic. Though it does accurately portray the function of racism to maintain power through arbitrary means, that have shaped social constructs in our reality.... it also unintentionally undermines the real pain behind racism by suggesting "I don't see racism, why do you, and why can't it all be merit based the way I see it from my given perspective". The guy is so sweet though and it's definitely interesting to hear his perspective. It makes the way our entire system functions appear as silly. But it really should be vehemently rejected. For me, it points to a scarier reality that as a society we give truth to power through our complicit acceptance of an unpalatable, atrocious system that still very much pervades society and plays large factor in people's quality of life.
I really like his videos. And he's honest...even made a video about someone asking him how blind people know when they've wiped enough after they poop.
Papa bless Tommy
