I think it would be fun to do with “whiteness” what @ConceptualJames has done with 1619.
"Be not afraid of whiteness. Some are born white, some achieve whiteness, and some have whiteness thrust upon 'em."
“Why, then the world's mine oyster.
Which I with whiteness will open.”
"Did my heart love till now? Forswear it, sight,
For I ne'er saw true whiteness till this night."
“What's in a name? That which we call whiteness
By any other word would smell as sweet.”
“Please, sir, I want some whiteness.”
“The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in our whiteness.”
“There is nothing either good or bad, but whiteness makes it so.”
“You speak an infinite deal of whiteness.”
“By the pricking of my thumbs,
Some new whiteness this way comes”
“It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of whiteness and more whiteness,
Signifying nothing.”
“It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of whiteness must be in want of a wife.”
“Though this be whiteness, yet there is method in’t.”
“Whiteness is heavy and light, bright and dark, hot and cold, sick and healthy, asleep and awake- its everything except what it is!”
“We are such stuff as whiteness is made on, and our little life is rounded with whiteness.”
“Two things are infinite: the universe and human whiteness; and I'm not sure about the universe.”
“Be the whiteness that you wish to see in the world.”

I’ve wondered if it’s worth sharing “my story.” I’m a pretty private person so it feels weird to share. But I think it’s worth it bc we all need encouragement that ordinary ppl can do something about what’s happening to our country. So, why do I talk about Woke stuff?

The Woke Mob: my survival story

My husband and I co-founded a justice-oriented non-profit org 11 years ago. At the time, we knew nothing about Critical Social Justice or Critical Theory. Our motivation was to address disparities in mental health care. 1/
We’d learned that lay people (ppl without clinical training) made up the majority of trauma care providers around the world working with vulnerable populations (refugees, human trafficking survivors, etc). We wanted to help equip those lay people with good resources. 2/
