Culture was different in the 90s.
People paid less attention to race and more attention to character.
Nowadays between BLM riots and pushing CRT everywhere, more and more people are aware and focus on the racial differences.
Pushing BLM and CRT hard has led to many noticing the existence of racial differences in IQ and racial differences in propensity to commit crime that have existed for decades.
In the 90s, people were focusing more on the individual.
Colorblindess likely won't be coming back in the age where the battle is between race baiting vs racial realism.

I lived in the Deep South in the 90s. You know, where there are actual black people everywhere instead of token ones and segregated neighborhoods. This is a bold faced lie spoken of raw naivety.
I was getting two months a year (Feb for Blacks, November for Indians) of constant "special speakers" preaching raw white guilt in schools. And we weren't even 10 yet. Our news and local politicians ran on entirely race based platforms, and the "fake news" train was full steam even then.
There was never colorblindness in places it mattered. Only in places where you might see ONE black dude a day in a crowded city. You know, where it doesn't fucking make a difference.
It was simpler to not see it because the internet limited our vision, and the media hard controlled the narrative and you didn't have any reason to not trust them.
Things are worse now to an extent, but really its worse in that we are bombarded with how prevalent it is. So it seems like its complete hell, but its mostly they are just more open and honest about it.
What the fuck are you talking about.
Translation: I was too young to pay attention then and think that my GENOCIDAL BRAINWASHING FROM YOUTH was an actual state of affairs.
Holy shit, man.

My memory of the 90s was much different than what you experienced.
The overload of wokeness nowadays has maybe given me a rosier picture of the 90s it seems.
Thanks for sharing your experience, this is something I didn't really know at all.
