This is where I feel like everyone talks past each other


Each side is using an entirely different definition of racism. By your definition, I don't believe the country is inherently racist. But if we define racism as the historical sum of many laws that add up to hurting black people, I do. But neither side has to address the issues if people can just say yes/no using different definitions. Conservatives who don't believe they are racist don't like being told they are, while liberals see all the ways that racism is alive in their eyes and get mad when others just hand wave it away.
