It's Postracial...NOT!!!

So I keep attempting to focus on some aspect of the human experience that doesn't revolve around race, gender, and identity...and damned if I'm able to do so without circling back and finding myself right where I started. I try, honestly I do, to find a way to view the world and my place in it without reverting to an analysis that privileges my reality as a woman of color...a middle-aged woman of color, at that; let's add age to the mix! I'm wondering how others are faring. Do you notice your racialized experience? If you don't, I'll wager you're not a person of color. Would love to know what others are experiencing. How does your identity inform your day to day life?
