America is not colorblind This is a reality check

5. This is precisely the problem with obsessively focusing on race

It fractionalizes people. The president is half-white. Tiger Woods is half-Asian. My nephews and nieces are half-Asian as well. Some might not see the harm in it. But the act of labeling people in terms like half-this or three-quarters that ultimately undermines our humanity. It gives those who wish to keep our civilization in a tribal and feudal state that much more incentive to chip away at our humanity, to keep us all isolated. People are just people. And we love and cherish those close to us not for their heritage but for who they are. I have never loved a half-person in my life. I don't feel that I need to explain the reason why. Humanity is total. So is love. Please remember that always.
