    There are people who believe that any kind of fix to counter discrimination is unnecessary, because “well I’m not racist, and I certainly haven’t discriminated in X way, so nothing needs to change”. They are either unaware or ignoring the reality that the effects of past discrimination don’t go away just because the people that did it are gone.

      Thank you. I never thought of it that way even though I’m quite passionate about the topic. Passionate but not well informed it seems…
