good piece. add to the idea of race, ethnicity, and specifically in the u.s. hispanic. so instead of black, it becomes color--people of color. when you consider the attacks on muslims imposed by trump, it becomes still a wider umbrella of abusive racialism: white as opposed to arabs, mexicans, blacks, africans, etc etc.
not so much asians. not so much jews. definitely not norwegians!
in fact, it is the aryan mind again: we saw it in south africa and of course nazi germany, but also northern europe. it wanted to conquer the world. it's back in this newest, old iteration.
