Whether or not you perceive yourself as a "racist", you still very likely contribute to racism because you were socialized in a racist context.  It's not about proving you're not a "racist", its about rewiring your thoughts and making a conscious effort to combat your own and others' racist attitudes.  Unless you are making an actual effort, you're probably contributing to the problem.

At first I felt nervous to present such a heavy and dense topic + set of readings, because I was worried that the class wouldn't have anything to say. But now I feel really excited about how we all had something to say and that we're working to challenge how we see and think about the students we are teaching. I feel that personally I still have a ways to go in terms of taking what I have learned and applying it to how I teach and work with my students.
