The Most Terrifying Villain in Get Out Is White Womanhood by Aisha Harris (full article).

“‘White liberal racism’ has been accurately pinpointed as the movie’s symbolic Big Bad, the villain that, when left unchecked, will destroy us all.”

Including Jordan Peele on Jeff Goldsmith’s The Q&A Podcast, The Birth of a Nation, King Kong, To Kill a Mockingbird, Jack Johnson, The Scottsboro Boys (#tw: lynching et. al), Emmett Till, the 1923 Rosewood Masacre, A History of Rape Reports and Lynching in the US (#tw: rape), Odell Beckham Jr., women who voted Trump, the West/Swift feud, Key and Peele’s “Othello Tis My Shite” sketch, the Democratic 1994/1996 Crime and Welfare Bills signed by Bill Clinton and the Super-Predator myth. #getoutspoilers #get out spoilers #spoilers

White women didnt’ ask to be used this way by racists. We really, really didn’t.

didnt a white girl just get busted for saying she was gangraped by a bunch of black men this year. and then days later came out as a liar? Rhetorical question, yes the fuck she did.

Like… In a post about white women using their victimhood as a weapon, you identify as a white woman and proceed to play the victim. Sit with that. And be a more critical thinker.

The lack of self awareness is staggering

if she wasn’t so shite at makeup she could’ve fooled people

this is the story of the girl lying about being gang raped x that @sojournerlies was referring to

“In 1994 Susan Smith claimed that she’d been carjacked in South Carolina by a black man who drove away with her two young sons (ages 3 years old and 14 months). For nine days, she made dramatic pleas on national television for their rescue.“

In 2007 Amanda Knox was accused of murdering her roommate, Meredith Kercher in Perugia, Italy. Naturally, she was like, “Uh uh, not me!” and blamed Diya “Patrick” Lumumba, her boss, and Lumumba was arrested.

In 2010 Bethanny Storro claimed that she was attacked outside a Vancouver, Wash., coffee shop by a black woman who approached her and asked her whether she wanted something to drink. She claimed the woman said, “Hey, pretty girl,” and then threw a cup of acid in her face, disfiguring her. Police went on to investigate and started to think that Storro wasn’t telling the truth. And she wasn’t.

After Storro held a news conference shortly after surgery, with her head wrapped in gauze, she was booked as a guest on The Oprah Winfrey Show, but she canceled the appearance after Oprah’s staff did some digging and things weren’t adding up.

In 2013, in an exclusive interview with ABC News, Storro discussed how she used the acid on herself in a failed suicide attempt because of a then-undiagnosed mental illness called body dysmorphic disorder. The illness causes an obsession with minor or imagined physical flaws. She admitted that when she was a national story, she felt that she “mattered.” She said, “In that moment I felt like I was cared for and I mattered.” She also claimed that she didn’t mean to blame it on anyone else. Right.

this is probably the most infamous case, screenshot taken of this article x

so get your head out of your ass and stop wailing when we’re called out on racism and look around you instead of trying to make excuses for yourself/ourselves and try to silence Black folks

White women and their feminism speaks to agency of a woman and their choices but the minute it’s about racism, it’s all about how they were tricked, forced, or manipulated into being racist and how the real culprit is white men. Like they break their backs to play the victim even if it means they use the same sexist tropes

❝ Django Jane is a response to me feeling the sting of the threats being made to my rights as a woman, as a black woman, as a sexually liberated woman, even just as a daughter with parents who have been oppressed for many decades. Black women and those who have been the ‘other’, and the marginalised in society – that’s who I wanted to support, and that was more important than my discomfort about speaking out. ❞ —Janelle Monáe

i love characters who have like…. an unreasonable amount of backstory. before they entered the time frame of the tv show they personally saved the life of four different foreign dignitaries, spent five years as a mountain hermit, have lived on every continent including antarctica, speak twelve languages, have studied every form of martial arts you can think of, are an expert vintner, were the subject of two separate famous works of art, and have been implicated in eighteen bank heists around the world. they’re 25 years old. no one questions this.
