What does it mean when a person says [someone] is playing the race/gender/religion/etc. card?

Asked by tinyfaery (44083points) August 7th, 2008

Correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t the fact that someone is a woman, black, Jewish, etc. necessarily determine the point of view from which they speak and act? Why is it bad when someone “plays” this card?
