However, from a social perspective, more work must be done to reverse the effects of three hundred years of deep-seated racism, discriminatory practices, prejudging, and psychological damage that exist throughout the Western Hemisphere in regards to this issue that we call race.
At the time of this writing, though scientists have proven the falsity of race, I see no ongoing effort to eradicate the social construct of it. There is no one who I know of that has gone onto a television broadcast and made a public statement saying: "Folks, when our ancestors created a concept that we now call race, it was a lie. It was created for exploitative purposes." No one has yet made this type of comment with total and deep contrition: "Let us work to undo the falsehoods that were created because of the concept of race. We shall do this from a public and a private perspective; intellectually and academically; let us change or correct what is reflected in the literature, the newspapers, the cinema, on the television, and in the textbooks used by our children and young adults."

A mailing list for networking and discussion, and a would-be safe place for those who've encountered antisemitism and anti-arab sentiment in the Neopagan subculture, plus a page responding to some defenses of racialism seen in the Pagan community. | |
