don't measure. I'm talking about what that progress can HIDE. And if it doesn't effect you directly, it's a whole different conversation.

I don't see why it would. If you think you've gone from a 10 to a 5, it shows you're only halfway there.

And you get the difference between, say, needing to lose 20 lbs and being at 10 - and GENERATIONAL racial discrimination, yes?

I see the difference between two totally different things, yes. How do you see the psychology of goals differently?

Obviously not. But I don't know how to ask you any more clearly than I have whether having goals & measuring progress can be inspirational.

I'm saying the former is fine, for yourself. I'm saying expecting the same of the latter is insulting to ask of other people. Clearer?

Again, not really the question being asked. I think you must be having too many conversations to focus. Maybe another time.

when discussing topics like this. Racial inequality is BETTER, yes. I don't think we should celebrate, we should ask why not MORE.

I remember Peter Tatchell on this. Got a lot of grief for saying 'Bravo!' to report that 42% of US Muslims support same sex marriage.

Because it wasn't 100%. He wasn't allowed to note & celebrate this big shift in the right direction.Such a shame to be negative all the time
