in my opinion, there are 2 key takeaways from 'white fragility' by robin diangelo:

1. racism is not an ‘either / or’ binary but rather a continuum &
2. the challenge is to accept and grapple with this truth.

in 'what white people can do next', emma dabiri unveils race as a social construct—something invented rather than something that has always existed.

i loved her voice throughout the narrative. it isn't just strong or matter-of-fact. it's fierce, it's frustrated, it's hopeful, it's kind. it is all of these things, and it is entirely one of a kind.

Could we please take a moment to think about a subject no one likes?

The US is in a race war.
Conservatives, White Supremacists are controlling the country.
People are disappearing.

Canadian conservatives, the CPC are mimicking their US counterparts.
Do you get it now?

I don't want a White Canada and I am sure you feel the same.

Let's help everyone get to the polls.

Vote for a diverse country not a divided Canada

Trump supporters in the US are Poilievre supporters in Canada.

Choose wisely, #Canada.

“All people are created equal.”
What was that they wrote?
Their truth on parchment paper.
Not an opinion or judgement,
but a false reality?

Hallo liebe Evangelikale in den USA,
hier eine buchstabentreue Auslegung des Wortes, wie sie bei euch so beliebt ist:

"Gott" ist auf Latein "deus".
Das Wort dekliniert sich:
deus, dei, deo, deum, deo.

"dei" ist Genitiv, bedeutet also "Gottes"

"#dei" - also Diversität, Gleichheit und Inklusion - ist demnach Gottes Wille.

Findet Ihr auch in den Evangelien.

Auf die Nächstenliebe!

Bunt is beautiful!

"The erasure of Indigenous, Black, Hispanic, and female veterans from our military history is an attempt to elevate white men as the sole actors in our history. It is also an attempt to erase a vision of a nation in which Americans of all backgrounds come together to work—and fight—for the common good."
