"DR FRANCES CRESS WELSING - ANALYSING AND UNDERSTANDING RACISM"

Dr Francis Cress Welsing gives us clear understanding of how white supremacy works and what it's real intentions are towards Black people.

this is a short video where she specifically deals with white supremacy. watch and learn it is very important

If people are getting their news about a whole country from a one off post being like “I know I’m not the victim here but seeing people like me being targeted makes me feel bad and unsafe” I fear that person is never going to have a nuanced view of the world anyway

Y'know voting is like less than 1% of what you can do to make a difference in your life and everybody else's life, right?

Y'know voting once or twice for a white supremacist who's maybe less evil than the other white supremacist doesn't make you a good or morally correct person, right?

Be real.

Do you even know what's happening in your city? Do you even follow your town council decisions?

When's the last time you read a fucking book by a Black author about the Black experience in America in the 21st century? (Or literally anything focusing on race/sociology/history)

When's the last time you donated to your city or towns' mutual aid group? Not a church charity, not a non-profit, a mutual aid group. A group of your neighbors, your community members, who come together for no other reason than to give care to other community members. When's the last time you interacted with them?

When's the last time you offered anything to a houseless person? Do you offer them money or food or water or an umbrella to provide shade since most of our cities are eviscerating all of our tree canopies in a time of climate catastrophe and record houselessness?

Whose fucking land are you on!? You are most likely a settler, a gentrifier, and abusing your position as a "comrade" or "ally" to get away with not facing what violence you enact every single day. You are an uninvited guest using our resources and killing our indigenous ways. You are doing all of these things if you are not actively working against the colonial white supremacist model. You must be actively working against these systems or else you are simply part of them.

If you want to "stop fascism" or "save democracy" or "dismantle the system" you need to do it in your own home and in your own mind first.

There's a lot of bigoted, very specifically racist movies where white people are like "lets remake/rewrite x movie!" Like i don't know how to tell you that if you tried to do that, the rewritten version would be completely different & unrecognizable because it's central plot/themes/etc rely on racism at their core

By the way, a pastor in Springfield has alleged that flyers for a Klan revival are being spread, alongside a message targeting Haitians. Cut it with the fucking cat and dog jokes. This is serious.

Image of the flyer under the cut for obvious reasons.

He murdered him because he was black. They invited he because he murdered a black man. Half the country voted for this mentality, because they are this mentality. Noted

The racist comment made about Puerto Rico at the MSG MAGA rally is a white supremacist talking point

[nero-neptune]

i'm afraid that there's Never gonna be a concentrated effort to get the nazis off of tumbler dot com, bc no one knows what a nazi (or neo-nazi, for that matter) actually is! additionally, no one knows what nazi rhetoric even is, not when it's passes the "Uses Progressive Language" test, bc using the Good Words™ is all you need to let extremely racist messages fly under the nazi-detecting radar. god forbid anyone look in the mirror and ask "am I the bad guy??" and get their shit together.

this website: "hey staff !! >:((( when are you gonna get rid of all the nazis?!?!"

also this website: *makes the 358th conspiratorial post that Strongly Suggests that bloodthirsty jews (with dual loyalty, Of Course) control the media. this post has over 20k notes*

The nature of time is that (culturally) Christian Euro/Anglo colonial consumers (hereafter white ‘people’) fetishize the idea of being ‘close to nature’ or ‘primitive’ or ‘savage’ and latch on to the idea that there are groups of people in the world who are somehow bestial or who have some kind of special powers from holding animist beliefs/beliefs that acknowledge the body as opposed to the Christian belief that the body is a kind of useless appendage to a person. We see this across decades from the 19thC to today in the racist fetishization of indigenous people across the globe, particularly residents of the Americas, Australasia, and southern/eastern Africa.

White consumers use a warped conception of other cultures to live out the fantasies that the Christian soul/body stuff engenders. You keep getting told that your emotions and physical sensations are the devil’s work? You want to get in touch with those physical sensations, but you don’t want it to interfere with your worldview? Simply project them on to a convenient group of people with slightly different conventions from you. Imagine how cool it would be to be 100% physical sensation (especially those pesky violent and/or sexual urges) and no mental burden, then unleash that in a way that causes millions of deaths worldwide via the dehumanization of entire nations of people just trying to live their lives. White consumers love a Proud Warrior Race Guy.

Flash forward to the 2010s, it’s generally considered impolite to spread the same propaganda that justified the genocide and dispossession of many different groups of people. However white culture hasn’t changed that much and normal human activities still need to be explained away to maintain the veneer of white intellectualism that has been used to justify white violence for years and years. You can’t just stomp around and clap your hands and dance badly, you’ve got to project it somewhere else.

But wait! There’s a community of people considered ‘tribal’ and ‘savage’, considered violent and bestial, who were never colonized! It’s…the Norse. Fetishizing early medieval North Sea raiders can’t be cultural appropriation, see, they’re white! It’s not offensive to replace an entire culture with white (male) ideas of what’s cool if that culture is totally unassociated with colonizer stereotypes and is in fact a culture of colonizers!

And that’s my theory on why there are so many Norse-inspired folk bands/video games/tv shows/memes/literally anything in the 2010s. VSaga not counted because that manga has been running since 2003 and is actually well-researched and comes out of a culture with a similar but distinct tradition of racism. The Euro storytelling tendencies of needing some kind of violent avatar have taken on ye anciente Norseman now that people care a little bit about the gallons of blood used to sketch other ethnic stereotypes. Done and dusted. Except the other side is that the fetishization of early medieval Norse culture is literally just white supremacist 101 and a lot of artists don’t step around that nearly as carefully as they should

Feel like the "anti-military people supporting palestine is hypocritical" crowd doesn't understand that being anti-military isn't being anti-fighting it's being anti killing civilians for geopolitical gain

Witches, I'm going to need you all to learn to discern the type of source you're getting your information from, and what kind of biases are associated with it. Don't just gobble it up because it's a "historical source" or from some sort of anthropological source either.

Historical sources are great. But if the person you're taking as an authority to learn from, is someone originally from a different country and culture to the one you intend to learn, someone that talks about it in third person all the time, practically reading word for word from a christian missionary's manuscript about pre-christian traditions and beliefs, and a translation at that? because they admit that don't even speak the native language of that tradition or culture...?

They may be very well researched, on english sources at least. But I still wouldn't take them as a proper authority on the matter. They're speaking from what they've read from very biased sources. That's practically hearsay. They're not first hand experiences. Not even second-hand, because it's what an outsider to that culture saw, and very likely misinterpreted, because of their own cultural differences as an outsider, and then may even have altered some more because of their goal as a missionary. An here you come, modern reader, to try to interpret these older texts with your modern eyes, maybe even from a completely different culture to the first two involved aswell, making it a double or triple conundrum of time, culture and sociohistorical context, yet again. That is, without taking into account your own individual biases towards the text you're reading and what you expect to find, or do, for your own personal goals. Multiply all that for the amount of people standing between you, and that original first-hand account. You see the problem?

The least the author can do in such cases (because sometimes, that third-hand account really is all we have access to in the present) is 1) acknowledge how the sources they're using are biased, and 2) beware the reader on how those biases may have affected the material you're reading, to somehow be able to infer what the original would've looked like without that effect. You may want to take it a step further and consider your own sociocultural position, and how it could affect your personal interpretation upon reading it. If the author(s) don't even mention biases...? and even try to pass it all off as "certainty"...? 🚩🚩🚩

Take everything from that author with a mountain of salt. Consider it entertainment, maybe inspiration, anything except treating it as "professional" or "expert work"... as I see some people doing.

And always prioritize first-hand sources. Always. Prioritize. First. Hand. Sources. Talk to a native from that area, learn the language of the culture or tradition you're interested in, really immerse yourself in it, and you'll have an easier time spotting bullshit.

The only people who benefit when black people and jews are divided are white supremacists

i don't want to put my uninformed foot in my mouth or get involved with the Discourse but i've been seeing the two extremes of reactions to the korean low birth rates issue (on tumblr and twitter both) and i'm just kind of like. look. i feel like "low birth rates (in many countries but especially japan and korea as part of this conversation) are more broadly the result of capitalism/a culture of overwhelming overwork that makes social relationships and having families incredibly inaccessible to young people" and "low birth rates are very much a part of the current conversation about misogyny and social expectations for women in korea especially in the context of reproduction as 'unpaid labor' for women" are statements that can both be true

I have been trying to say something for ten minutes. And all I have to say is fuck all of you. Fuck you Trumpies - I hope you get effected by everything you voted for - fuck you white leftists that didn't vote because you expected Kamala to win - I hope the moral high ground and convenience was worth it - fuck everyone who just decided to be complacent, and most of all, Fuck You Donald.
