The positivity of the thoughts from Thomas

Enjoyed hearing from Thomas and his thoughts as well as Andrew. This kind of sphere of thought resonates with me as I'm probably what Thomas and Andrew might call an "old anti racist" ie...grew up in the 80s and 90s taught we are all human beings to be treated with respect not a colour or race first and only. After hearing this podcast maybe in the end they'll be 2 ways to be anti racist...the old and the new but they both may work.
The new by dividing and pointing out the difference or the old which is individual respect for a person or people based on their character and actions. I'll choose the latter every time.
