Unfortunately, it's a complex topic that is sufficiently outside my specialization that I'm unwilling to really dive deeply into it. For instance, if I tried to say whether I personally thought race is more talked about in the US than in the rest of the world, that would just be one random guy's (me) opinion. What would I be basing it off of, personal travels? That's not good data.

The only even remotely honest answer I can give is "I don't really know."

I have to know what I'm talking about first, for there to be any kind of point.
