They could at least uhh idk not contract with ice or other law enforcement if they wanted to show support
This is the main point to me. All the vocab adjustment is so inconsequential over the hope of actual ends to real effects on racism.
I won't try to speak for black people, but I would hope/bet they they'd give white people full license to use the N-word if it meant every cop that ever mistreated someone for their race goes behind bars, no more pay disparity by race, or loan/homebuying mistreatment, and no more wealth gap effects in economic progress.
