SOOOOO, I’M SORRY TO DO THIS BUT
I’m moving back to my old tumblr.
I’m just tired of being anonymous.

I’ll still post here when I need shit anonymous.

“We ask readers to take feminists’ achievements as important and significant in their own right but also to recognize that different women have come to understand gender inequality and women’s oppression differently.”
basically, “read what we’re teaching you and take it in, but realize we don’t know everything and individual women can pretty much teach you a shit ton too”
i’m thinking about going back to my old blog.

When I say that I hate white people, or that I wish white people weren’t around, people (usually white) always look at me and tell me that I should stop hating myself, or that I’m self-loathing, or better yet, they seem to think that they’re helping me realize that I’m white too. I know I’m white. And I know that I am part of the society that ostracizes and marginalizes POC, and I hate my whiteness just as much as anybody else’s.
If blackness represented what whiteness represented in society, I’d hate that. Or if brownness represented what whiteness represented in society, I’d hate that too. But they don’t. Because it wasn’t Black or Brown people who enslaved hundreds of thousands of white people and sold them as if they were objects, and it wasn’t Black or Brown people who kidnapped white people from their home and brought them to land colonized by Black or Brown people and forced them to work for free. And it isn’t POC that to this day ask that white presidents prove their nationality, or who completely dismiss white people’s opinions as irrational or angry.
Whiteness, to me, represents thinking you’re better than everybody because you’re white. It represents the way that school education teaches me about my people and about white people before anything else. It represents every white kid who uses the n-word like it’s no big deal. It represents the thousands of people who think that racism doesn’t exist anymore because Obama is the president, or because Kanye is just as successful as Eminem.
It’s not that I don’t want to be white. It’s that I don’t want to represent whiteness.
