Greetings,
Did you post on here before by another name? You remind me of guy who use to post on here by the name of Jeff?
Like it has been said on here before…This is the internet, anyone can claim to be doing anything…..that doesn’t make it True.......Right…….or Just.
So I will simply say… I “do” what I talk about on here. I only talk about/promote what I am actually doing. I am not a leader, I am not an ego hound... and no, gosh darn it - I will never be in the white rasta hall of fame.
I refuse to come like us whites are known to do in the world, which is pounding one’s chest, blowing one’s horn about “works” that are very much about one being in a privileged and benefited position to be able to do so. I refuse to enter the nasty pissing contest. You can take that however you want. This discussion has helped me see clearly how we whites have no business claiming to do “works”, the best we can do is “work” for reparations in the full sense of the word…and that does indeed begin in one’s self.
Instead of trying to “dog me out” why not try to talk some of the legitimate issues us whites have to face when doing the “WORKS” of facing white supremacy/racism. These are the questions I am asking my fellow whites. The questions are about our white mindset and motivations/feelings of entitlement we whites have to face. I am questioning our ideas of “works” and the rightful order in doing things. The same standard I hold others to, I hold to myself. If you have read my other posts I speak of us whites collectively. All of us whites are marinated in the white mindset of superiority, arrogance and ignorance. To me, our work starts and is continual in working out these issues of our white mindset, individually and in our white community…to me, this is our “work” in bringing down white supremacy/racism.
