They fully recognize race is a factor. They are only recognizing two distant areas with a high population of black people shouldn’t be one district. If you look at the map it’s grouping two random areas together that’s are not even close and it just happens to be areas with more black people. Democrats recognize race and that it plays a factor in this country, republicans deny race exists and that it plays a factor while designing a system that systematically targets people of color.
Racism already is a driving factor in how Republicans draw district maps. There is no other plausible explanation for why there has never been more than one Black representative in a state in which over a quarter of voters are Black.
It’s not racist to be capable of identifying the effects of racism. It’s not racist to try to eliminate the effects of racism.
