If the actual issue is that the system is "structurally" racist, why do we even care about blaming people for their silence, or lack thereof? Isn't it a basic starting point of performing a proper "structural" or "root-cause" based analysis of a problematic system, that one should avoid preemptively assigning blame? You really can't have it both ways, this whole way of thinking makes zero sense.
