I was being sarcastic. I think your idea is weak. OK, so they call it something else. Let’s label people who are now called “White” as “Carrots”, and Black people as “Turnips”, it doesn’t change anything. Now Carrots are seen as racist and having Carrot privilege, and Turnips as being abused, and the Turnips would still be trying to teach the Carrots how to think, feel, act, and speak, in order to “become better Carrots”. It doesn’t change anything.
