doing and being

I have been doing a bit of research for a workshop about creating inclusive and accessible learning opportunities in multi-cultural settings. Whew. One thing I found was this video by IllDoctrine. He makes the point that, when you want to call a behaviour racist it is better to talk about the doing as racist and not accuse the person of being racist because that is a no win argument. It is a point that has been made by others but I think that IllD does it particularly well.
