“Also,” said one of the INSURGENT slaves, “many anti-racism activists have tried to use Capacianism to try to prevent racism by exposing what it looked like in the past. However, Capacianism is centered around recreating the past, not analyzing the past to move forward into the present, as Michael observed, so it is difficult to use Capacianism for anti-racism campaigns. In addition, I think it actually hinders current anti-racism movements, because although racism has its roots in the past, civil rights Capacianists only acknowledge the impacts of racism in the past, but they fail to acknowledge its impacts TODAY, making Michael’s observation even more relevant. We could learn from history, sure, and prevent mistakes made in history, but what about the mistakes made in the present?”
