    In an ideal world it wouldn’t matter. However human perception is not perfect and if we ignore color then we ignore equity with its subsequent derivatives. Culturally I one day hope that the world learns move beyond that

      I don’t expect people to ignore color, I just don’t think we should look only at color. I don’t think physical characteristics are irrelevant, but you can’t define a group of people by that alone.

      Edit: will someone explain to me why this is controversial?
