How does one individual white person help stop/overthrow white privilege and make equality more prevalent? *genuine question*
Asked by Anonymous
I think the first step would be to research; research the genocides white people have committed against people of color, how many of these races and cultures that survived genocide were forced into assimilation and how, who are laborers that built and financed the U.S. ( and other countries) past and present, segregation then and now, broken treaties, the economical benefits from enslaving African Americans and Chinese Americans and their abuse and treatment, colonialism, the exploitation of people of color in many countries through Free Trade, institutionalized racism, education that caters to white cultures and downplays and lies about the treatment of people of color, the benefits of white privilege, and more. ( sorry I haven’t had coffee yet or truly woken up, and there is so, so much more to research ) Compassion will follow this knowledge.
edit: compassion should follow; but often doesn’t.
