[quote]Microaggressions aren't just innocent blunders – research
links them with racial bias
A white man shares publicly that a group of Black Harvard
graduates “look like gang members to me” and claims he would
have said the same of white people dressed similarly. A white
physician mistakes a Black physician for a janitor and says it
was an honest mistake. A white woman asks to touch a Black
classmate’s hair, is scolded for doing so and sulks, “I was just
curious.”
It’s a pattern that recurs countless times, in myriad
interactions and contexts, across American society. A white
person says something that is experienced as racially biased, is
called on it and reacts defensively.
...
Their main argument: Microaggressions are innocuous and
innocent, not associated with racism at all. Many contend that
those who complain about microaggressions are manipulating
victimhood and being too sensitive.[/quote]
So, are they correct? Of course not:
[quote]We found direct support for what recipients of
microaggressions have been saying all along: Students who are
more likely to say they commit microaggressions are more likely
to score higher on measures of racial bias. One’s likelihood of
microaggressing also predicts how racist one is judged to be by
lab observers, as they watch real interactions unfold.
...
In our studies, other kinds of microaggressions, including those
that explicitly deny racism, are strongly and explicitly related
to white participants’ self-reported levels of racial bias. For
instance, the more racial bias a participant says they have, the
more likely they are to say, “All lives matter, not just Black
lives.” These expressions are more than small doses of toxin.
Still, even in these cases, racial bias does not explain all of
it, leaving ample room for defensiveness and claims that the
recipient is being too sensitive.
In our research, participants who agreed with the statement “A
lot of minorities are too sensitive these days” showed some of
the highest levels of racial bias.[/quote]

More folkism:

ive-occupies-theater-in-switzerland-demands-non-white-theater/
[quote]The action has been launched by Experi Theater
collective, which describes itself as a “non-white performance
group.” The group has featured a number of non-White artists and
performers over the years.
Critics of the group claim a theater space that excludes White
people is racist, according to news outlet Neue Züricher
Zeitung. However, the group has responded that such criticisms
are actually racist.
“There is no racism against whites,” the group argues. They
claim that racism is a White construct that oppresses people who
are non-White. “That’s why it’s so important to unlearn White
practices and structures in anti-racist work,” they
write.[/quote]
If they had demanded a "black" theatre, that would have been
racist. A "non-white" theatre is anti-racist.

[quote]The infuriating charge of 'racism against white people'
...
Not so they could feel the sickly apprehension that can
accompany a simple traffic stop.
Not so they could feel the indignation of being asked to account
for yourself just walking down the street.
Not so they could feel what it’s like when your bank loan is
denied, your home appraises for less, your doctor doesn’t take
your pain seriously, you don’t get the job, your preschooler
gets suspended, the shopkeeper follows you around, you can’t
hail a taxi or you wind up in handcuffs, because of the melanin
in your skin.
No, I wish white people could be Black so they could know how it
feels to deal with all of that — and then hear white people
complain how hard they have it.
The reference is to a recent political ad. You likely haven’t
seen it if you’re not in Georgia, but it surfaced on Twitter the
other day courtesy of Isaac Hayes III (yes, the son of that
Isaac Hayes), where it reminded us that, in matters of race,
some of our white brethren and sistren — repeating for emphasis:
some — are shameless beyond words and clueless beyond parody.
“When did racism against white people become OK?” asks the
announcer. The piano frets worriedly behind him, and white
people gaze soulfully into the camera as he lists supposed acts
of “left-wing racism” and “anti-white bigotry” they face from
President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris. We lack
space to detail those claims, but it won’t surprise you that
they’ve been debunked by Factcheck.org, Politifact and The
Washington Post. Nor will you be stunned to learn the ads are
funded by something called America First Legal, led by Stephen
Miller
...
Yes, the spot is obviously a direct descendant of the
notoriously racist Willie Horton ad of 1988. But our attention
today is on how it tries to neutralize the language of liberal
protest by co-opting it, i.e., re-framing “racism” as something
suffered by white [s]folks[/s]. It’s a rhetorical trick the
white right has used for years. Which is not to say it has lost
its power to infuriate. This narrative that racism is a “both
sides” phenomenon may be comfort food for them, but it is a
libel upon my ancestors.
Again, however, it is not new. Maybe you recall a 2016 exchange
about racism between Bryan Richter, a white cop in Austin Texas,
and Breaion King, a black woman. “Do you believe it goes both
ways?” he asked her. This, after he had body-slammed the
112-pound woman, handcuffed her, stuffed her in the back of his
car and lectured her on the “violent tendencies” of, ahem, Black
people.
...
One wishes they could be Black, but for their sake, it’s
probably best that they can’t. If they were, they’d have to deal
with white people like themselves.
They could not handle that.[/quote]

Use of the term "white privilege" decreases support for racially

The term "good white person" is as big of an oxymoron as saying
"good Jewish person". They are both the same exact thing!

[quote]They tell Black men to talk, act and do right — then get
behind Herschel Walker. Sounds about white
...
Today’s topic: “How To Be A Black Man.”
It’s a subject on which white conservatives are often quick to
offer instruction to actual Black men, their utter lack of
relevant experience notwithstanding. In split screens on Fox
“News,” online and in emails to Black male columnists, they give
unsought counsel.
Black men, they say, should educate themselves. Speak the King’s
English. Be honest. Abstain from violence. And for goodness
sake, stop having babies out of wedlock.
Then, white conservatives turn around and offer as a candidate
in last week’s Georgia senatorial run-off a Black college
dropout whose mother tongue is gibberish, who is estranged from
fact if not reality itself, who has a reported history of
abusing women, including threatening at least one with a
handgun, and who has fathered multiple children by women to whom
he was not married.
...
ultimately there is, for conservatives, really only one
inviolable rule in that regard: Don’t make white people feel
bad. Don’t make them see what they’d rather not see or know what
they’d rather not know. In fact, don’t even remind them you’re
Black, unless it be to reinforce their cherished narrative of
how racism went away a long, long time ago. If you simply must
discuss racism in a present-day context, then talk about how
white folk are the new victims.
...
It’s a price no person of conscience should be willing to pay,
much less a Black man who, by definition, wakes up on the wrong
side of systemic injustice every day. Yet, there’s always
someone willing to forfeit his dignity, happy to shuck and grin,
for the fool’s gold of approval from those who would otherwise
hold him in contempt.[/quote]

Rao has a long history of anti-White rhetoric.
She has urged followers on Twitter to, "Make a banner about
Ending Whiteness. March Against Whiteness. Rally Against
Whiteness. Raise your megaphone Against Whiteness. Take to the
streets Against Whiteness. Until and unless we eradicate toxic
whiteness, the violence will never stop."
She also has suggested, "Literally everything wrong with this
‘country’ is due to toxic whiteness. It is not a side show. It
is every single main event. Center stage."[/quote]
