Race has shifted from institutional sites to everyday micro-relational interactions

Evidence

The register of race has shifted from the broadly institutional, from which it is at least explicitly excised, to the micro-relational of everyday interactions, on the one hand, and the macro-political strategizing of geo-global interests, on the other. The two in the end go hand in glove, to extend that bloody metaphor I invoked earlier. — David Theo Goldberg, The Threat of Race, 139
