That's a word. But it's part of the narrative that poor Southerners are to blame for everything so we can pretend that's the only place racists live and not really evaluate the larger national problem.
When Black and PoC told White folx to talk to their racist relatives during the holidays past four years, they were all like "we don't wanna ruin the mood" over their dry ass unseasoned turkey. And now it's all "let's reach out to them in love." Bye.
...I don't care how progressive you are as a White adult, or that you voted for Obama twice - if you stayed silent around friends and family racist rantings and beliefs YOU ARE COMPLICIT. PERIOD.
Black people have been under the boot of racism, white supremacy, economic anxiety, inequality and so much else. Despite it all, we somehow didn’t vote for a racist and didn’t storm not nary a U.S. capitol. But sure, let’s keep centering everything around aggrieved white people.
I'm so grateful for your mentions today! I've received lots of DMs about mentoring. I have an online coaching program for hairstylists called The Academy. Please click here to learn more and join the waiting list: https://t.co/3HAYWKvogI
I'm old enough to remember when too many news leaders questioned if Black journalists could cover Black Lives Matter & the nation's civil unrest. They claimed we couldn't be objective. Now I ask those leaders, can white journalists effectively cover the Trump insurrection story? pic.twitter.com/d4v4EX9xCV
