Overview
When someone says (often with the very best of intentions) “I don’t see colour or race” many people of colour cringe. Why is that? In this expert seminar from Bruce’s Lifelong Learning course at Carleton University, we will dissect this comment and summarize what the psychological research says about it. We will find that although it is dressed in some of the best clothing it hides a rather pernicious message.
