Did you just assume the author was a man? Uh oh...And you'll have to explain what is apparently so funny.

Trees, and the shade they provide, are actually markers of race and class...According to the data collected by the Texas A&M Forest Service, in Houston’s "medium to high" developed areas, there are an estimated 3.7 trees per person. In similar areas in Austin there are 4 trees per person and in San Antonio there are 7.5."There is disparity here. [Houston has] low tree canopy cover and high heat."
It seems both of you believe it is reprehensible to make comments regarding the proximity of a particular race to monkeys
DOES THIS FAMILIAL PREFERENCE MAKE YOU A "RACIST" ?
SKIN TONE ≠ "RACE"
DOES THIS FAMILIAL PREFERENCE MAKE YOU A "RACIST" ?My worldview would say that valuing familial ties is a moral obligation. But there are CRT advocates who would accuse me of racism for that. Black Lives Matter is one such organization that believes valuing the nuclear family is a form of white supremacy.
SKIN TONE ≠ "RACE"This is the problem with the social construct of race. There are benefits to these manmade categories, but you have identified a major weakness. The parameters for different categories are sometimes contradictory (are Russians Asian or white?). In my worldview, there is ultimately only one race (human) with many shades of the same color based on melanin count. I admit I am more melanin-challenged than my darker counterparts.We are not an evolving group of organisms, some being closer to monkeys than others. We are an utterly distinct group that have always been and will always be human.
You weren't folllowing - he was specifically talkin' about how the article says that the iconic image explaining evolution is casuing systemic racism
"Even as an opinion piece, I hope both evolutionists and creationists can agree that this is just bad argumentation and should never have made it into a publication like this. But this is Critical Race Theory. Whiteness is evil and is to blame for basically everything wrong with society. I hope people can see the logical end of such reasoning."
