Because I still am one. Because it never goes away. Because as a white person, I have absorbed messages for my entire life that I am better than the majority of people on earth, I have absorbed messages telling me that the only lives worth caring about are the ones belonging to those with pale skin. Every day of my life, I absorb more messages that tell me that. Those voices in my head are pretty loud.
There is no “delete” button for that.
What can happen is that the voices of people of color can be louder. If you really listen, if you commit yourself to looking whiteness in the face for what it is, you can hear other voices, voices screaming out their own humanity in the face of white supremacy. They shout pretty loudly.
But the racism is still there. It always will be. It never goes away. You can fight it, but you are never absolved.
As soon as you say: “I’m not racist” you wash your hands of any further responsibility to fight those messages that tell you that white skin makes you better, that anyone without it doesn’t deserve empathy or human dignity. As soon as you say “I’m not racist” you commit yourself fully to racism.
Yup.
holy shitsauce the white tears in the comments are off the charts
applause for people who can put things eloquently
Here’s the Humble Indie Bundle V pack of video games. Basically, it’s just like the image says: Pay what you want, help charity, get cross-platform, DRM-free games. All of the games work on Mac, Windows, and Linux and if you pay a minimum of $1, you’ll get a Steam key in addition to DRM-free direct downloads.
- For any amount you pay, you get Amnesia: The Dark Descent, Psychonauts, LIMBO, and Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP!
- If you pay more than $7.35, you also get Bastion!
- And in addition to all five games, you get the soundtracks for all five games in FLAC and MP3!
- You can pick and choose exactly how your purchase is divided, either donating to charity, the game developers, or Humble Bundle Inc.
So don’t be dumb. Just do this. It’s for charity and for some of the best games ever.
yeah, do it
do you understand how good of a deal this is?
it’s actually somewhat mind bending
it is your moral imperative to get this deal folks

BUYING THIS

Christina Hendricks was goth in the 90s and it is seriously my favorite thing about her.
