White &Christian are considered default & harmless norm in the U.S.
White women are afforded an innocence that is both a reward & a leash that ensures they work diligently on behalf of a patriarchy upon which their own livelihood depends.

Marjorie Taylor Greene's "armor of God" rant is a reminder for white people in the U.S.:
