While "colorblindness" asked people to act like racism isn't still a serious problem when it clearly is, "see my race" fails to equip people to think outside of the strict, socially constructed racial boxes, which fails at preparing people to understand people who fall outside them, most notably mixed race people, and encourages the notion that people of different races are inherently, insurmountably different.

It is a mistake to build more social structures around the notion of race. We should want it to go away while acknowledging the conditions aren't there yet.
