A "stale monoculture" is one that uses bright colors and patterns to create an illusion of individuality while largely being interchangeable when it comes to interests, personality, and outlook on the world.

While a "vibrant diversity" is a melting pot of ideas, views, and beliefs that doesn't need to create a way to artificially differentiating yourself through a means that's less than skin deep.

The scum in our society decided to start wearing things like running clothes as an everyday outfit, and replacing "sports" with "active" makes it easier for them to rationalize doing so.

More white people get shot by police than black people btw. Black people get shot at a higher rate relatively, and it's definitely a racial issue. It's also an everybody issue if you choose to also frame it that way. Same with immigration reform. A better pathway to legal status would mean that employers can't hold illegal status over people to abuse them, undercutting citizens. Fair housing could be sold as preventing people from discriminating against rednecks or southerners or republicans or etc. Voting rights are another thing where minorities are more likely to be affected on account of being targeted but poor white people are collateral damage in this too. If you have an independent group pushing it they can talk about how it would stop democrats from doing it too. Etc.

Seriously, you don't have to abandon good policies. You just have to also try to convince white people those things are good things.
