Don't take the blue pill

Not to recognise the impact of the past on today's realities, from the
US south to Africa, leads ineluctably to racism

In the film The Matrix, Morpheus (played by Laurence Fishburne) offers
Neo (Keanu Reeves) a stark choice. He can either gain a greater
understanding of the complex forces that comprise the world in which he
lives; or he can continue in a state of imperilled ignorance as though
they do not exist. "You take the blue pill and the story ends,"
promises Morpheus. "You wake in your bed and you believe whatever you
want to believe. You take the red pill and you stay in Wonderland and I
show you how deep the rabbit hole goes."
