Not looking to be superior. It's just a statement that in nearly all cases, when someone prefaces a statement with "Not to be racist," or "I'm not being racist," or "This statement might seem racist but it's not," then the statement that follows after is usually racist. It's a positive correlation, and there are many people that will back that up.

For example: a book about it, another book about it, a rationalwiki article about it, and a Washington Post podcast about it.

It does exist. It's on page 308 of Old/new World: New & Selected Poems by Peter Skrzynecki.

It begins with the words...

> "Curious to see how deep was the pond
> I plunged my hand
> into the deepest end -
> but quickly withdrew
> when I felt the cold
> encircle my arm like an icy clamp"

That's all I could pull out of Google Books, the book is on sale on Amazon for $12.

It's also available in the Quadrant magazine.
