Reverse Racism - Tumblr Posts

4 years ago

“Whites hold the social and institutional positions in society to infuse their racial prejudice into the laws, policies, practices, and norms of society in a way that people of color do not. A person of color may refuse to wait on me if I enter a shop, but people of color cannot pass legislation that prohibits me and everyone like me from buying a home in a certain neighborhood.”

Hot take: Reverse racism does exist, but it isn’t anywhere near as bad or harmful due to it not being systemic or nearly as widespread or normalised as racism towards POC.

(Also please continue to support BLM, sign relevant petitions and if you can send money to relevant and trustworthy charities and funds. Just because it isn’t on your dash anymore doesn’t mean it isn’t still relevant 🖤)
