Well the point is obviously lost on you. But I will try. I argue that one can not ignore color, it is part of the equation. However, color is but one aspect of someone existence, integral, yes, but not all defining. Like religion and ethnicity, one can not ignore these things.

The question, as I say time and time again is:

Do you see only color, or do you see color AND something more? When crossing the color line one must do so with eyes wide open, less one is liable to smack one forehead on something.

He argues for both at the same time! He demands that you see color and that you also put on preconceived bias glasses that says all Blacks are carbon copies of each other and oppress...

I make no such argument. It isn't about individuals, it is not whether you go out of your way to denigrate someone, it about how racism in the U.S. is systemic and endemic. Your attitide shows what happens when people refuse to see that.

Wise up. There are Whites that are oppressed and Blacks that are oppressors!

Examples of this would be nice.

Now how can one do better than say that they will try to treat others fairly no matter what their color or race is?

By acting in such way that tries to understand all factors, including race. In an ideal world it would not really matter, but reality is not the same way.

How can the anyone imagine that people of any race are too stupid to
realize that people of another race (read group) have different factual
histories, goals, values etc?

You would be surprised. Many people act and speak as it this was irrelevant, presuposing that their experiences are either superior to or trump those of others. Problem is that these attitudes are so ingrained, that the speaker...

Problem is that these attitudes are so ingrained, that the speaker doesn't realise what he or she is saying or doing. To them it is perfectly normal, non-offensive and perhaps even beneficial. But sadly that is not enough.
