Mister G 9,163 Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 When she spoke out about how she thought she knew so much about equality in the LGBTQ+ community, and that the reality for so long is that itās calibrated in whiteness, and then equating white supremacy to the zero sum theory and how someone with white rage thinks a person of color winning is a loss for themā¦this entire conversation was so good and Iām glad I watched it.Ā Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm about halfway through and honestly the entire thing will be worth watching. It's an excellent conversation and deeply reflective about her personal growth and gives perspective about what's been going through her mind this past year. It deserves our full attentionĀ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's very kindĀ I will probably need some time to fully get my head around the concept. But if I'm correct that it comes down to "whiteness as a system", I think I know where to start.Ā Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
