THIS IS WHAT WHITE SUPREMACY LOOKS LIKE

EVERYDAY occurrence in this country along with privileged white males being treated with the care & attention of babies

I want whiteness to feel discomfort & pain until it cares for ours as we’re expected to care for its

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER

I wanted to take time today to address an issue related to how Black women continue to be targeted, with increasing intensity, online & how tech & its leaders facilitate it

Also, w/o context, ppl who speak out are being attacked

THREAD 1/

#causeascene
I can admit that I have, until recently, spent a great deal of time, within the safety of the cocoon I created for myself as a Black womAn from GA in the U.S.

I've always known, even as a child, that my well-being was directly tied to white supremacy and racism... 2/
what I wasn't aware of until recently, was how intimately connected my well-being and that of Black women was now being impacted by the decisions of tech leaders

It took this conversation with @digitalsista on the @causeascenePod, to open my eyes 3/

There’s one thing that I can say about Twitter, there’s ALWAYS an opportunity for me to learn and to be challenged

I continue to grapple with the fact that ppl are complex and how to develop strategy that clearly defines where to draw my line

Here’s an example 1/

#causeascene
.@shaunking retweeted @Amy_Siskind, a white woman who caused harm Black women this year & has yet to face any impactful [that I’m aware of] consequences for her actions & I’m reminded of the current #GDIStrike & the harm @girldevelopit has caused in much the same way 2/
Seeing this, I found myself wondering if this is a one off

Is “the work” more important than the messenger

Can we really detach the “movement” from the “mover”

And, I keep coming back to NO 3/

White women, in large numbers, also refuse to own their role in maintaining & promoting white supremacy

They’re all for fighting the patriarchy to the point where they don’t lose the comforts and benefits of relational privilege

10 Red Flags to Look Out For in Women (A THREAD)

These are all from my past experience with women. Mostly from one woman that I spent way too much time with. I felt bad for her and bought in to this psychopath's web.

This can happen to you if you don't see the warning signs!
1. Daddy issues / All men are jerks

Obvious one but this is a sign of past issues. If all men are jerks, she's the issue. Too many princesses out there who think their shit don't stink.

They expect the perfect ideal mate but can't cook. But at least they have debt!
A poor role model in a father will lead to a woman not knowing what to look for in a man. She holds resentment towards all men because her initial experience with a man (her father) has tainted her perception. Hard for these women to get over.

Thread: Here’s Yet Another Reason to VOTE RED in the Mid-Term Elections

1. This one in particular just burns me up. What a crock of dung! I am going to provide the below verbatim with permission from Combat Veterans for Congress PAC.
2. Here is the editorial with which I fully agree: Prior To The Midterm Election CNN Is Calling “White Males” A Terror Threat To The Nation
3. On October 29, 2018, CNN’s Don Lemon stated on a national TV broadcast “We have to stop demonizing people and realize the biggest terror threat in this country is “White Men”, most of them radicalized to the right, and we have to start doing something about them.”

@SurvivorsnetBtn @RASASC_London @survivorstrust @Danvers07943910 @ObjectUK @BrightonSurvivorsNET “In the light of a highly disturbing increase of #transphobia locally & nationally…” IF everything anybody says or does is #transphobia, of course you can say it is rising. Any reputable statistics?
@SurvivorsnetBtn @RASASC_London @survivorstrust @Danvers07943910 @ObjectUK “…so the date @Womans_Place_UK event feels like a concerted effort to make #trans ppl, & particularly #transwomen, feel #intimidated and #invalidated” Is it the position of SN that the sensitivities of #transwomen mean that #democracy should be suspended any time they say so?

Thread: Today I have led 140 MPs from 6 parties urging @theresa_may to take immediate action to address the #Windrush crisis. What is going on is grotesque, immoral and inhumane. It is a stain on our nation’s conscience and the PM must act urgently to right this historic wrong.
After World War II we invited the Windrush Generation over as citizens to help rebuild our country, and now their children are being treated like criminals. The government is essentially stripping people of the rights that our government itself granted decades ago.
These individuals have done nothing wrong and there is no basis upon which the Home Office can justify what they are doing. These individuals have lived in this country for decades – working hard, paying taxes, raising their families and contributing so much to our country.
