why saying "I don't see color" is problematic

episode 5: The problem with being "color-blind"

In modern media, racism has become a hot topic. From denying it at all, to demanding its dismantling, or even trying to convince others that they're far from racist, people from all walks of life constantly converse about the concept of racism. Though the systemic injustices are enough to make my blood boil, there is one common phrase that irritates me like no other: "I don't see color". In this short episode, which is a bit of a deviation from the rest of the episodes, I discuss the harm that this common phrase can cause for so many People of Color.
