Thinking before I speak: I understand where they are coming from but on the flip side why hold white people responsible for Something their ancestors did to their ancestors centuries ago and they refuse to better themselves. Unpopular fact: black on black crime leads to more black deaths that we never hear about then the few white on black. And oh my gods you want to start a fire storm have the balls to point that out. Or the balls to point out how many white people have been killed in drive by shootings by black people for no other reason then it was a white person in “their” territory.
Excuse me? What the fuck are you talking about?! You clearly do not understand where people are coming from and this is possibly the most ignorant comment I have ever had on on my blog.
It’s not just about holding white people accountable for things their ancestors did. How ignorant can you be? It’s about holding the system accountable, a system that was built and perpetuated by people in power (white Europeans) that built and upheld systems that benefit themselves and holds other people down. This system of colonialism and oppression may have started with enslaving people, stealing land but that thread is baked into our laws and our institutions like red lining, segregated schools, and even the history of policing in America. This isn’t something that happened in a vacuum centuries ago. It is a gruesome living thing that is perpetuated over and over by people who are afraid to lose power over others and it’s easier to hide in ignorance that examine your own advantages.
Your fear of examining your participation in systemic oppression it is such a tell. Your “black on black crime” nonsense is a favorite talking point of white supremacists. I see you for who you are and you are no friend to me.
White people, especially ignorant ones who get bent out of shape when people point out the advantages they have in structural racism, make easy targets but it also shows you true intentions.
