Dr Manabu Sakamoto (he/him) on Nostr: I've been seeing clever-sounding commentators advocating for increasing integration ...
I've been seeing clever-sounding commentators advocating for increasing integration as a solution to the underlying cause of the recent race riots, but I don't really understand what they mean. It doesn't help that they don't elaborate on it either. Ultimately, they still paint immigrants being different as a bad thing. So again, immigrants are being blamed and the solution is for immigrants to 'integrate'. But aren't immigrants already integrated by renting and buying things locally?
