Its easy to find the stated reason. Of course, it's not the real reason.

If you read my post and you understand English you know it has nothing to do with the word Black being capitalized

No one woke up one day and thought, "hmm...yes... it just seems to make sense from an objective social and historical standpoint to capitalize black but not white. Ah yes...This is definitely the most logical and sober way to approach this matter. Very academic."

Literally no one. Not even the most brain rotted white liberal. It's total culture war rhetoric. Antagonism was the point, the whole point, and nothing else but the point.

Gee, I wonder how blacks would react if white was capitalized and black wasn't. It's a real mystery! They totally wouldn't feel antagonized!

as a white person, I feel that the all lowercase rebranding gives us an image of casual, youthful cool

Not that you all care, but the National Association of Black Journalists says when using a color word to describe race always capitalize it:

Hey genius,

As I already said there were dozens upon dozens of potential multiple choice given throughout this thing. Not just a handful of racial and gender identities, but stuff like Yes, No, Maybe, Agree, Disagee … on and on and on and on and on. One answer was given with a lowercase letter. Not a mistake. Just a weird fucking thing to do.

You can lead a lawyer and/or real estate guy from Seattle to an article but by god, you cannot make him read it.
