Please do educate me about "people like me"...I can't wait to hear it.

"Color-Savvy" or "Color-Conscious" would mean that discussions on race relations acknowledge the historical and sociological differences people have endured (and continue to endure) due to their racial identities. It isn't about deeming that anyone is "better" or "worse" than anybody else based on whether one's skin is lighter or darker. At least, that would be my intent when I use it. I can't speak for anyone else here.

"ColorBLIND" implies that one's experiences based on racial identity should somehow be rendered invisible or meaningless. That simply isn't realistic.

Yes, I know that isn't LITERALLY what you mean when you refer to "colorblindness." I agree that the original intent of the word "colorblind" was to signify the sentiments of somebody who doesn't care about another person's racial/ethnic background, and instead will judge them as an individual. That's how I regard people in general, as well. But society itself hasn't delivered on that promise. Not enough power players are actually practicing what the particular term would claim to preach. For that reason, I believe that a change of wording/phrasing is appropriate, in this instance.
