- Concerning race, it exist as a truth but not a fact, just like time. (Everything after this is just my opinion and not from Academia so criticism is cool but don't expect me to get defensive and say, "I am correct."😉Time is a man made construct to help given ways to organize and schedule.
If one talks about past, present and future in terms relative to the time passing by it seems pretty futile. Every nanosecond I type would be in the past and each thing word I am about to type is in the future, but the present does not exist because there is no pausing. In terms of history, it is more applicable but not in a literal, everyday sense.
Race is the same in that we are all people, and carry unknown capacity which varies depending on our situation as we grow. No black person is certain to be "x" and so on.
With white guilt, it's more something we all are exposed to as a result of lies concerning the past and images/perceptions given to us by the European dominated world. The fact that a lot of people feel inferiority/superiority complexes simply from race is proof of this. If we need to discuss that further let's do so, but denying that that sort of tension exist amongst people is being very forgiving.
