So, the #PLANAct town hall last night was 🔥, but I want to talk about a specific thing I noticed re: who showed up and who *tends* to show up at stuff like this. (thread) (1/)
The organization spearheading the PLAN coalition is focused on justice-involved women and gender-expansive folks, who are primarily Black and brown. And Black and brown women turn up; and Black and brown men turn up; and white women turn up. You know who doesn't? White men. (2/)
I think that comes from a few things:
First: People who aren't white cisgender men are more likely to be at least marginally aware of intersections of marginalization and injustice, and to see problems that don't primarily impact them as nonetheless being relevant to them. (3/)
