Fuck that.
Fuck that. Do you want to mislead a racist into interviewing or hiring you? Besides that, I'm really tired of the cancer that is the anticipation or expectation of racism. I understand there are lots of examples of racism on a regionally wide scale, and that there are hotspots. For the localities suffering from racism: it's inexcusable, tragic that some are so far behind the 21st century and no doubt badly wanting of immediate remediation. Absent some circumstance where this kind of conscious behavior modification is clearly required, why would anybody do this? It's disingenuous, dishonest and not a reflection of who you really are. Besides that, it frames the entire situation in this defensive "here comes the racism" posture that isn't healthy or likely to help anybody. I truly believe the racism/sexism blinders are traps. That's not to say they don't exist but the existence of the concept sometimes itself harms the subject group. I completely understand that some people characterize others based upon origin, sex, belief system, or background. But so what? Those people lack the ability to reflect upon their own beliefs or have broken morals; neither of which makes them someone you'd want to befriend, work with or work for. Wouldn't it be better to never show up for an interview because you weren't invited because you mentioned the NAACP, rather than have a bad experience at the interview? Rather than believing in racism, believe in excellence and push yourself to excel. Any employer you'd want to work for will appreciate diversity in its staff, and they're not going to be looking for someone who's merely mediocre regardless of their race.
