small great things against racism

That's because racism isn't just about hate. We all have biases, even if we don't think we do. It's because racism is also about who has power... and who has access to it.

"When I started working on this case, ladies and gentlemen, I didn't see myself as a racist. Now I realise I am. Not because I hate people of different races but because -- intentionally or unintentionally -- I've gotten a boost from the colour of my skin, just like Ruth Jefferson suffered a setback because of hers.
