I genuinely genuinely genuinely hate it when something is centred as “non-white”. I see it way too often. It literally sets white as the default, the core or original point of comparison, and everything else is a variation or off-shoot of it. It centres whiteness as the base, and literally everyone else as defined by their not being white. Their lack of whiteness. As though white is the only way to be right.
The term “of colour” is LITERALLY right there. Instead of “a non-white cast” or “non-white movie”, consider this: a cast of colour or a movie of colour, you fools, you eurocentric cowards. Especially if it’s a black cast or black movie. Just say BLACK. It’s not a slur. I promise.
How self-centred and egocentric do you have to be to take something that focuses on a marginalized group or a certain identity, whose main focus of that particular piece of ground-breaking media IS that group, and then go around and phrase and frame all discussion around it by their lack of whiteness or straightness or what-have-you-ness?
Are you so afraid of not being the focus or centre of attention for two seconds that you’d make any reference to their colour or racial background into being about how they’re not white? That’s where we are at, in 2018, year 1 PBP (Post Black Panther)? Really?
How can you so blatantly miss the point? Or is it as I think and you’re fully cognizant of your erasure of black people and people of colour, to intentionally and maliciously bring whiteness to the table as the default?
Stop framing the narrative around whiteness to the detriment and exclusion of people of colour and particularly black people.
And yes white and non-black people can reblog this.
What Israel is doing with African Immigrants is no different than what our own government is trying to do with Muslim immigrants. It’s racist, disgusting, and sick. Israel is racist, disgusting, and sick.
If we’re calling out Trump for his white supremacist, racist bullshit, than we need to do the same for Israel, because they’re is literally no difference. Open up your eyes tumblr, don’t start complaining about the US and talk about how pro-black and pro-immigration you are if you’re gonna turn a blind our towards Israel.
Yall were silent when Trump declared Jerusalem’s isreal’s capital, yall are silent now when they’re evicting African immigrants. i Don’t know wtf yall stan Israel so much but it’s so fucking disgusting and disheartening. It’s one of the most inhuman god awful places in this day and age, and i’m tired of people ignoring it.
Honestly fuck Israel and anyone who blindly supports it. We need to open our eyes, it’s racism is NO DIFFERENT than that of Donald Trump, the KKK, and other shitty group in America. Like this is all racial based, why don’t you care?
Seeing you all stay fucking quiet when white devil Trump handed over Jerusalem to Israel nearly had my crying (in legit sadness). Seeing yall silent when Israel is kicking African immigrants out is just infuriating. Yall are all so pro-black and immigrant except when Israel is involved doing the most inhumane shit. I don’t get tumblr sometimes.
I think it sounds like an awesome idea. We do not need more people in the world, we don’t need people who are so poor that they counterfeit checks to have children that they also can’t afford, and anyone who does want children after this can just adopt. It’s a pretty excellent solution.
If everyone who shared your opinion just dropped dead you wouldn’t be missed.
If you can recognize that people who are poor can’t come up and you think the solution is to sterilize them in exchange for their freedom instead of I don’t know creating more job opportunities by cutting hours while paying better and continuously adjusting your pay to inflation then I really don’t think there is a single reason for you to be wasting air like this.
when Black women are upset with or dislike someone nonblack the first thing yall jump to is that we’re “hating” “bitter” & “negative” none of our feelings are ever validated and are more often than not dismissed as being delusional & we’re bullies.
nonblack women are allowed to be multidimensional people with valid feelings about wrongdoing done or said against them but us? our only crime is that we’re not seen as soft and therefore not worth the defense.
