nice. I'm ready to get on that Reading Rainbow

@William_1994 - WA I missed this somehow, this is really well wrote. The only thing I would add is citations.

@CarletonJ I have edited my draft to appeal to race as an instrument for community and establishing virtue, rather than as an a priori concept. Although the latter is closer to my position, I feel that my new draft will be more persuasive as it appeals to the Thomist ethics to which my friend adheres.

Communities arise within a specific people whom share history, language, and customs; that almost always means within a race. These communities allows us to comprehend the telos of being human, although expressed differently; consider the aesthetic in black and white churches. As such, we must be aware of our race to establish the virtues that lead to our flourishing. In this way, we may think of a community as a family and a race as an extended family. The moral laws applying to this extended family are much like those applying a person’s biological family, specifically concerning love and duty. A mother loves her child more than other children, so also should people within a certain ethno-cultural community (expressed within a race) feel a special filial love between them and act in accordance to actualize their virtues.

@William_1994 - WA This is perfect. Have you ever considered writing articles or even a book?

I used to write occasional articles under my pseudonym ("Cultural Heresy"), but I deleted everything after Cville. I would like to do that again in future.

@William_1994 - WA wait a minute, do you use Twitter? One of the accounts I follow is Cultural Heresy.

Yes, that's me haha

Hahaha this is crazy. I've been following you for some time now. I enjoy your tweets.
