Average Racism post I too‚ have never heard the term “average racist”. I believe it is a term to remove accountability. Average is “in between”; it is the mean‚ not swaying one way or the other. So average is therefore neutral. Neutrality does not excuse responsibility.

Although Janie is dealing with a number of issues throughout the book‚ racism is not one of the things she struggles with. When Janie was very young and impressionable as people at that age tend to be‚ she was constantly around white people. Living among them for most of her youth‚ she was probably around them more than those who most resembled her.
