Most white Americans are not familiar with the concept of ‘racial passing’. The idea is simple enough; an individual from a particular racial group is perceived as belonging to another and lives their life according to that assumption, but the reality of ‘passing’ is complex, troubling and often incredibly dangerous.

For the first time in American history, a former president was convicted of
felony crimes in May, and a month later the Supreme Court decided presidents

stretched and worn the limits of our imaginations. Most Americans never thought
they’d witness the overturning of Roe
v. Wade, or the U.S Capitol...
