This is really interesting and reminded me of 'Toni Morrison's book, 'Playing the the Dark', which she addresses the significance of the black present in the White American consciousness and literature. She wrote in a way that was profound, without using the obscure language that made this article difficult to understand.

When stretching the conceptual categories normally associated with a word, it would be a course to explain.

Intellectual snobbery gets no-one anywhere significant.
