In rough outline, historians will have to make sense of the engagement between europeans and africans after ocean-crossing technology.
First chapter will be enslavement, then colonial rule and segregation, and finally a weird century or so of quasi-religious commitment to the bit of blank-slatism and interchangeability / color-blindness.
Seems like MLK will be the one name associated with this most recent chapter. "From the middle of the 20th century through the middle of the 21st, European peoples acted as if there were no racial distinctions, and zealously repressed any recognition of such. This was best personified by the beatification of the American MLK, who at least superficially came to represent 'color blindness'" etc
