postrace
Following the competition
Postrace describes a society or perspective that treats race as no longer a significant factor in determining life outcomes or social dynamics.
The term gained currency after Barack Obama's 2008 election, when some commentators declared America had entered a postrace era.
Critics argue the concept ignores persistent racial inequalities: The idea of a postrace America is a fantasy.
Often used skeptically or in scare quotes.
