A new national survey conducted by conservative think tank Manhattan Institute found that Millennial Republicans are more likely to call themselves racist than Baby Boomer Republicans.
A total of 34% of Republican survey respondents between the ages of 30 and 49 answered “I am such person” when asked for their views on individuals who openly express racist views. Only 3% of Republican survey respondents over the age of 65 answered “I am such person.”
A total of 23% of Republican survey respondents between the ages of 18 and 29 and 6% between the ages of 50 to 64 also answered “I am such person.”
There is much more nuance these days. Some anti-racist literature even says that we are all racist but that we can work on not being prejudice. These books will say that part of being anti-racist is seeing that racism exists in lots of ways and that we shouldn’t be denying that these things exist, we should be working on reducing the harm from it.
