despise the kind of genetic project of determining just how black or how white one is, but there is a way in which whiteness can mask the idea that we are, in fact, racially -- that blood or our mother's milk is, in fact, all the same genetic material. so there is sort of power in that moment of telling the neo-nazi, telling the racist, actually, your blood is my blood. we are flesh of the same flesh. >> and what people like about that moment is that, obviously, this person has a sort of almost religious, theological belief about the separation of races, that white and black are actually -- rather than a social construction. it's this genetic wall that can't be breached. and having realized that he, himself, is part black, he's sort of being forced to confront the myth around which he's built his life. >> although the notion of being part black is, itself, sort of patently ridiculous, right? because it is socially constructed, and yet there's something about sort of that
