I just came across this article that identifies Microagression. It is a subtopic of Critical Race theory. It all starts with acedemia and education. Now it's permeating into politics and even more threatening, private enterprise. Soon anything you say, will be used against you, the new Miranda Warning. This is cultural marxism. I am not defending the article, I am making you aware of it.
Microaggressions are subtle insults (verbal, nonverbal, and/or visual) directed toward people of color, often automatically or unconsciously they say. This is a one way street for these propagandists. What if a black Microagresses an Hispanic? An Hispanic microagresses a Black?
Critical Race Theory, Racial

Abstract: Using critical race theory as a framework, the study
described in this article provides an examination of racial microaggressions and how they influence
the collegiate racial climate. Using focus group interview data from African American students
at three universities, it reveals that racial microaggressions exist in both academic and social spaces
in the collegiate environment. The study shows how African American students experience and
respond to racial microaggressions. It also demonstrates how racial microaggressions have a negative
impact on the campus racial climate.
. . . one must not look for the gross and obvious. The subtle, cumulative miniassault is the substance of
today's racism. . . (Pierce, 1974, p. 516)
In and of itself a microaggression may seem harmless, but the cumulative burden of a lifetime of rnicroaggressions
can theoretically contribute to diminished mortality, augmented morbidity, and flattened confidence.
(Pierce, 1995, p. 281)
