Reply to comment by soulstudios in Existence is infinitely richer than our descriptions of it. So, rather than cling to reductive explanations that only ‘close’ life’s possibilities, we should ‘open’ reality by seeing ourselves as perpetual students | Interview with Black Existentialist Lewis Gordon by philosophybreak

I’m not a person that has interest in celebrating or promoting empowerment based on my race, but it’s most certainly an interesting topic to think about and discuss.

On the surface, race empowerment does not seem like a bad thing for any race to promote, yet it’s only considered acceptable by certain races mainly due to the historic amount of racial hate through most of modern history.

I understand the apprehension of some folks to openly allow and tolerate members of all races celebrating racial empowerment, however we should also use critical thinking and clear judgement to distinguish between what is actual hate and what is empowerment.
