@moonmonday the fact that a person would say to a person of colour that 'I don't see race' is an indicator that they do see race. Unless of course this is a standard statement they make during interactions with all human beings of all races, including their own.People do see race and they need to be conscious of that to ensure their biases do not impact the interaction. To proclaim that you don't see race, means you will also ignore your ingrained racial biases/stereotypes, thus unknowingly making decisions based on those biases and stereotypes. Thus unknowingly contributing the cycle of racism.
