Solidarity Is For White Women…In Academia

 

“The professor grabbed my tablet and closed it on my hands while I was opening my document and then proceeded to try to take my tablet from me while one of my hands was sandwiched in between the tablet and the keyboard.  In dismay I responded, …”

▶ Maternal Colonialism: Feminism – Mexica Movement

Feminism was created as the means for white women to gain the same stolen and genocidal fruits of male dominated white supremacy.

Community Village‘s insight:

 

If feminism = pro women’s rights. All women (regardless or race or time) who respect themselves and all men who love women are feminists.

The concept of women’s rights existed before the English word ‘feminist’ and before the books on feminism were written.

feminism: the advocacy of women’s rights on the grounds of political, social, and economic equality to men.

Feminism will overlap with racism, but that doesn’t mean that feminism is bad. It means racism that exists within feminism is bad.

Forty Million Dollar Slaves: The Rise, Fall, and Redemption of the Black Athlete

 

From Jackie Robinson to Muhammad Ali and Arthur Ashe, African American athletes have been at the center of modern culture, their on-the-field heroics admired and stratospheric earnings envied. But for all their money, fame, and achievement, says New York Times columnist William C. Rhoden, black athletes still find themselves on the periphery of true power in the multibillion-dollar industry their talent built.

Rule No. 1: Notice Difference

My son has taken to calling himself Black as he has learned that Black is a culture/ethnic heritage and not necessarily a skin color. At school someone overheard him say, “Cause I’m Black!

 

Community Village‘s insight:

 

This blog is one of the best I’ve run accross in speaking insightful truth about race relations. Even if you are not a parent or a transracial parent, it’s still a good blog – quality insightful writing from a mom who is a great asset to our community of truth tellers and oppression fighters.

 

In this article she explains that http://city-made.com/tag/recover/ it’s not racist to notice physical difference. However, when someone mentions race when it’s not relevant to the story or Igunga when they try to spin the story to demonize a certain group, that is racist.

Can We Recognize?

For so many people of European heritage, the process of decolonization begins with the deep recognition of some powerful understandings. You have ancestors. And those ancestors go back for thousand…

Why Decolonize?

“Do you know the people you come from?” This is the one question most commonly asked by the world’s Indigenous peoples to people of European heritage.

 

…decolonization is a powerful process that allows us to:

  • Re-connnect with the places we come from, and the ways of life that shaped our ancestor’s experience and continue to live hidden within ourselves;
  • Reawaken the identity of who we are in a line of people from ancient ancestors to future generations;
  • Restore a sacred way of life through relationships with the animals, plants, and other living relatives who made our lives possible;
  • Become more effective allies in anti-racist action, solidarity work, and resistance struggles of Indigenous people and other people of color;
  • Make healing of historic traumas possible for ourselves, and for Indigenous people who suffer from colonization and genocide.”
