A:The police need our help finding a robber.
B:How do you know?
A:The TV news is reporting a bank robbery.
B:Do they know what the robber looks like?
A:Yes, he's 6 feet tall, 200 pounds, black hair, and about 30 years old.
B:What race is he?
A:They didn't say.
B:The TV news doesn't tell us the race anymore.
A:Of course not. That would be racist.
B:But how can we identify someone if we don't know their race?
A:Don't ask me.
B:Then they also shouldn't tell us if the robber is male or female, because that is sexist.
