Eddie Glaude, Jr.

Princeton University


“The thing that I see will come out of this, if anything can come out of this, is that we have finally shattered the illusion that we’ve entered into some kind of post racial utopia. The murder of Trayvon Martin has sort of demonstrated very clearly, the emptiness of colored-blind language. Colored-blind language only hides the way race continues to work in this moment. So, racial disadvantage and inequality continues to be perpetuated and produced.”
