Race in Earthsea: does it really matter?

Some of the links are active. If you know of replacement urls for the deadlinks, please let me know.

In rereading the comments from that original post I see that three years ago, I had more patience with the white privilege tango. It reminds me of a conversation I had with a friend in discussing badly behaved people. I said, "The burden is, to know that good manners are the responsibility of the person who has them. Which means in order to exercise them I must be more mindful of how I behave."

"Or," she said. "You could just hang out with better people."
