So much of that seems so... obsolete. Of course, being of Russian/Palestinian extraction (e.g. Caucasian) I don't have this experience personally--but I don't see it. I used to see it. I don't see it anymore.

That's the point of talking about it- it is invisible to those in the "benefit" group.

That assumes I don't look around and notice what happens to other people. In fact, I do -- I have a special interest in processes and social infrastructure -- and I just don't see this kind of unspoken discrimination in the lives of people of color with whom I interact. Maybe I am really that blind but I don't think so.
