Blackmon. Stating Scientific Realism. Common-sense Realism Naturalized. We inhabit a common reality, which has a structure that exists independently of what people think and say about it, except insofar as reality is comprised of thoughts, theories, and other symbols, and except insofar as reality is dependent on thoughts, theories, and other symbols in ways that might be uncovered by science.. As human beings we are free, however as we have already studied our freedom is limited by many things and we also know that we all have unique moral visions. If we stumbled across a ‘Ring of Invisibility’, what kind of affect would this have on us? Would we view this ring as a way of gaining extra freedom? Would we no longer need to consider the rules, laws and limitations? Are we only moral people because of the fear of the consequences, or is our moral vision a part of us regardless of law and consequences? . Exploration and Discovery: Where Ideas Come From.

I welcome you, my intelligent and curious reader, to journey with me as I share my stories, thoughts, and insights of living with a subtle and quiet kind of racism, I call Invisible Inequity. Over decades, my perspectives on racism emerged from having a White family, a Black family, and being Jewish, from birth. I invite you to discover what may be some of the lesser-known historical facts and theories of racism\'s unspoken origins with me and come to your own conclusions.The invisibility of Racism is a well-researched book written to educate, motivate, and inspire the consciousness of both White-Presenting people, and Visual Minority people, regarding the nature, consequences, and possible solutions to racism in the modern world, pertaining specifically to the United States, Canada, and United Kingdom.The ultimate intention of this compilation of facts, and my personal experiences, is to begin to inspire the transformation of racially ignorant people, and racially neutral people, of any race, to act and think as anti-racists.I believe this is a worthy topic that we all can benefit from exploring because we don\'t talk about it easily - and frankly, that\'s because we don\'t know how to, yet.We need more anti-racists in the world today to end the overdue long reign of racism in our world, and this book invites you to see reasons and purpose to think and act in anti-racist ways.Please enjoy.It\'s a great day to be alive!
