Dear Editor:
Dr. Reeb’s op-ed on the Racial Privacy Initiative was dead-on! He is correct to assert that those opposed to the abolition of “racial” classification are truly “racialists.”
Their passion for “boxing in” their fellow Americans based on arbitrary and 17th century junk science methods of classification is no different than those in “white” supremacist circles who desparately wish to retain such classifications. By fighting to retain “racial” classifications, these individuals are sharing a blood-stained stage with David Duke, Don Black and Matt Hale.
This is truly where they belong, with those of their kind. A “racialist” is a “racialist is a “racialist”. It doesn’t matter why. Its wrong all the way around. Thank you Dr. Reeb.
Sincerely,
