George Yancy's Philosophical Argument On Race

George Yancy’s philosophical argument on race, the visible and racism is strong in terms of the issue of race and how blacks are experiencing racism contemporarily. Yancy breaks down the historical nature and thoughts way before his years, fully explaining why some white people think the racist thoughts they do and unconsciously act out the motions. Yancy breaks down his experience of white racism and the gestures that he feels line up with other blacks that have come to recognize the same gestures. The way he uses one example of the woman and himself on the elevator and the quiet motions that she does in order to affirm him, as a threat is a greater intermediary for the larger set of experiences that make up the scene of contemporary America.
