You sound as if you’re going by another definition of racism. It is the presence of privilege and power.

“I do’t know who’s racist and who’s not; nor do I care. It doesn’t stop me from doing what I do.” Well, that’s because you aren’t Black. When you are Black, racism actually does stop you from what you want to do an it also stagnates artistic creativity on many levels.

One thing about being a non-Black person of color is that you don’t identify with many of the racial tropes that come with anti-Blackness.
