[Alan] Freeman blamed the tendency of judges to focus on the perspective of the perpetrator of racial discrimination—what did he intend, what did he do—rather than on the perspective of the victim—in what ways do legal arrangements impede his freedom.@Tattie
I'm sorry. I knew nothing of the KKK or similar until I was maybe late 20s or so, certainly not when young (I'm now late 60s and led a rather sheltered life) so, yes, it would have just passed me by. I frequently miss the subtext in books and films too, only taking things at face value. This is obviously a "me" problem that I still need to work on. -

Sfaict you are in Edinburgh and I'm in England, neither of which had the KKK doing their thing. I feel there's a difference in how actions are received which is dependent on location. What is probably acceptable here isn't necessarily OK everywhere else. But one should still be mindful of misunderstandings. -

But wearing a white pointed hat and cloak is just a fashion statement!
