Many modern black “conservatives” consistently ignore that we would still be either enslaved people or living without equal rights under the law if not for the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. These so-called black “conservatives” have not studied history because they miss this essential aspect of black history to talk about some untrue tale white conservatives made up about some fake plantation the democratic party made for blacks.
“The Boondocks” is an animated show about a black grandfather who took care of his two grandchildren. One of the characters in the show is a blue-collar black man named Uncle Ruckus. Uncle Ruckus held white supremacist views and despised everything about being black. He disliked being black so much that he claimed to have a skin disease that made him dark called “revitiligo.” Uncle Ruckus is an example of a person with internalized racism. Dr. Karen Pike defines internalized racism as the “internalization of racial oppression by the racially subordinated.“ Blacks who suffer from internalized racism believe and promote negative stereotypes of black people. They will adopt white racist beliefs and thinking. This is the literal meaning of acting white, and it has nothing to do with getting good grades or going to college.
“The dominant group [whites] control the construction of reality through the production of ideologies or “knowledge” that circulate throughout society where they inform social norms, organizational practices, bureaucratic procedures, and common-sense knowledge. In this way, the interests of the oppressors are presented as reflecting everyone’s best interests, thereby getting oppressed groups to accept the dominant group’s interests as their own and minimize conflict.” -Dr. Karen Pyke
This acceptance of white supremacy as the norm leads to conclusions that racism is not a problem or does not exist. Internalized racism creates a justification for racism. This acceptance of white supremacy as the norm leads to conclusions that racism is not a problem or does not exist. Internalized racism creates a justification for racism. As this happens, people in racially oppressed groups internalize the validity of their oppression. Because they have done so, they find no reason to question or fight the system. These types will argue how racism would be no problem by pathologizing blacks while reciting the same anti-black memes as the racist subculture. They refuse to debate the implications of racist policies and the damage they have created because that will not be acceptable in the social circles where they desire acceptance. Internalized racism is a behavior exhibited in right-wing black conservatives who have been allowed into the national discourse on race.
