I'll let the article do the talking.
"At a time of so much death and suffering in this country and around the world from the Covid-19 pandemic, it can be easy, I suppose, to take any incidents that don’t result in death as minor occurrences.
But they aren’t. The continued public assault on black people, particularly black men, by the white public and by the police predates the pandemic and will outlast it. This racial street theater against black people is an endemic, primal feature of the Republic.
Specifically, I am enraged by white women weaponizing racial anxiety, using their white femininity to activate systems of white terror against black men. This has long been a power white women realized they had and that they exerted."

"Throughout history, white women have used the violence of white men and the institutions these men control as their own muscle."

(Not all white women have done this, so these words don't apply to those who don't act that way. It applies to those in here who do. The ones who play the I'm white race card but then when called on their racism, a person is attacking her because she's a woman.)
"Indeed, untold numbers of lynchings were executed because white women had claimed that a black man raped, assaulted, talked to or glanced at them.
But it goes even further than that. The Tulsa Race massacre, the destruction of Black Wall Street, was spurred by an incident between a white female elevator operator and a black man. As the Oklahoma Historical Society points out, the most common explanation is that he stepped on her toe. As many as 300 people were killed because of it.
In 1944, 14-year-old George Stinney Jr. was electrocuted for the killing of two little white girls. He was the youngest person executed in the United States in the 20th century.
A circuit court judge threw out Stinney’s conviction in 2014."

(But that was in the past... Today we see a new rendition of this behavior -the Karen.)
"In a disturbing number of the recent cases of the police being called on black people for doing everyday, mundane things, the calls have been initiated by white women."
Example: A white woman in New York’s Central Park told a black man, that she was going to call the police and tell them that he was threatening her life.
History has a way of repeating itself and this part of history will not be allowed to return.
How White Women Use Themselves as Instruments of Terror
