LRTs - Honestly, any time I think of the history of whiteness, I wonder about the evil done by my blood.

That discovery is horrifying, and Kim is right - whiteness will never grapple with these acts or confront them, just as it hasn't with lynching, slavery, genocide... Reading about what Confederate soldiers did to "scare" enslaved blacks into staying in the South is horrifying, but it's something I NEVER read about until I went deliberately searching through primary sources.

16 years of school between primary and uni - not one word.
