After reading “The Injustice of This Moment Is Not an Aberration” I learned that the progression of racial injustice is an illusion to society and I thought this was very interesting since society is often advocating for justice and racism but when we reflect upon our actions in history and in modern-day, it shows that the progress we made is often undone in the future which proves society hasn’t made any progress to racial discrimination and all of our efforts in fixing racism is an illusion made by ourselves in order to feel self-comfort. “Despite appearances, our nation remains trapped in a cycle of racial reform, backlash and re-formation of systems of racial and social control” An example of this is the election of President Obama and President Trump, where society went back to elect a president that believes in racism going back to a time that was left behind. This example of the presidents shows the contrast between society. I think that society isn’t necessarily going backwards in their progress towards racial justice but instead need to have a common opinion and work together on it. To be continued.
