Multiracial Whiteness - understanding BhB

 
Fantom 2021-01-24 18:35:24 

What are we to make of ................ Latino (or black) voters inspired by Trump? And what are we to make of unmistakably White mob violence that also includes non-White participants? I call this phenomenon multiracial whiteness — the promise that they, too, can lay claim to the politics of aggression, exclusion and domination.


Rooted in America’s ugly history of white supremacy, indigenous dispossession and anti-blackness, multiracial whiteness is an ideology invested in the unequal distribution of land, wealth, power and privilege — a form of hierarchy in which the standing of one section of the population is premised on the debasement of others. Multiracial whiteness reflects an understanding of whiteness as a political color and not simply a racial identity — a discriminatory worldview in which feelings of freedom and belonging are produced through the persecution and dehumanization of others.


Multiracial whiteness offers citizens of every background the freedom to call Muslims terrorists, demand that undocumented immigrants be rounded up and deported, deride BLM as a movement of thugs and criminals, and accuse Democrats of being blood-drinking pedophiles.


Now, I have a better understanding of BeathisBalls - he wants to be white to have the privilege of whiteness so bad he becomes anti-black and anti-brown and antidemocratic and anti-immigrant. He is whiter than white.

We used to say in the Caribbean, he is more British than the real English.

From WaPo: Thank you Cristina Beltran

I didn't know Norm was Portuguese (or of Portuguese descent).

Now I can understand his stance in that ongoing argument with Courtesy on that other near-infamous thread.

I'm all mixed up with Guinean, Indian, Scottish (on two sides of the family), yet I don't go around talking about it.

Ok, I might've mentioned the Indian side a few times, but that's only to score points with Khaga. wink

Yeah....am black with black, black added plus a trickle of deep black and some chocolate black too.

You don't see me bragging about it.

O...oh oh wait.....are we only being modest about White ancestry?

That's the prize that can make us seem entitled?


My bad.

In reply to Drapsey Here's my genotype, 60% Afro, 40% Indo & 10% Dutch...a good guesstimate based on my parents & grandparents' phenotype, genotype & what they told me! Probably do a gene test someday. Fool stop.

Fool stop.


That is so appropriate. I know you think it's cute.....but it is deftly appropriate.


A play on the full stop. Period.

A period signifies an end to what comes before it. A sort of declaration that says the thought that comes before it is finished.

So the fool indeed has stopped.
