Your white cognitive dissonance is the only thing showing.When you say "white people need to listen to black people" to me that's naive because that assumes that white people are ignorant about racism.Just started reading Michael Eric Dyson’s newest book, and it already speaks directly to something I have been thinking for a long time: That white people need to listen to black people. Here’s an excerpt talking about a meeting with some prominent black folks (Horne, Belafonte, Baldwin) and Bobby Kennedy.
“In fact, the brutal battering he suffered at the hands of the Baldwin crew offers an important lesson to white people about how to start real change. And that involves sometimes sitting silently, and finally, as black folks have been forced to do, listening, and listening, and listening, and listening some more.”
How can people who screw you over be unaware about the fact that they're screwing you over ?
That dumb act white people put on is an act
And you think the people who can do all that fancy smart sh*t are all of sudden clueless about racism ? And need educating by black people ?
- They can tell you what weather was like a 100 thousand years ago.
- They can tell you how exactly how deep every ocean is.
- They can tell you how hot the sun is.
They know.
Seeing black people fked up is white supremacist like Taz, Mudda, SobieskiSavedEurope, harmonica, Claudette, Rambunctious, kaz, get off on. This is what many black people don't get. But u think "Well if tell them how much this racism affects black people, they'll change"
NO !!!
The reason many whites get angry at black people is because many of them think
WHY CAN'T BLACK PEOPLE JUST DIE !!!!!!!!!!
How is it possible that we are still here?
They never expected us to last this long and grow stronger despite all the drugs, war, molestation, slavery, guns, police brutality, AIDS, glass ceilings, minstrel shows/ media destruction/ music destruction, prison systems, killings of our boys and girls, poison water/ food supply, Katrina, Haiti etc…etc…etc.
They are baffled at our resilience and cannot come to terms with it. If they were placed in our situation, any of them, they would have died off centuries ago! This is what they fear most but will NEVER dare admit.
Please understand that white racism stems from fear of genetic annihilation and envy of our hue. Racism is about white genetic survival.
So the thought that they can change this behaviour is a high level expectation.
Your paranoia is showing, my friend.
