Wealth Gap/Racism III
The best solution to racism, discrimination, and deficiencies in our economic system is reasonable and intelligent behavior. Time will destroy the last remnants of this old and tiresome problem, but only if society can stop taking an extreme (and hypocritical) position to counter racism.
“Racism will become an ugly memory only when universities teach a valid concept of human nature: one based on the tenets that the individual’s mind is competent, that the human intellect is efficacious, that we possess free will, that individuals are to be judged as individuals—and that deriving one’s identity from one’s race is a corruption.” -Gary Hull, Ph.D.
As Dr. Hull points out so eloquently, celebrating racial differences and valuing individuals based on their race is not the answer to traditional racism and discrimination. On the contrary, such multicultural are racist in and of themselves. If you cannot learn to be colorblind, society will continue to be involved in this infantile catch-22.
