White Passing Privilege Is Not As Much Of A Privilege As U Like 2 Think - Tumblr Posts

but ppl still think it's "white passing privilege" and not "white passing erasure" huh* im so sick of seeing this shit constantly every time ppl like me r brought up i don't consider myself white passing bc i hate the term 4 a bunch of reasons but a big 1 is that it seems 2 just b used against light skin mixed ppl [especially those of us mixed w/ white] 2 try 2 shove us out of the poc community ppl don't want 2 acknowledge that we exist or experience racism but we do, ur problem is that u only c colourism and not other forms of racism like featurism not 2 mention how being mixed w/ white especially can mean dealing w/ racism from within ur own family and then u try 2 go 2 the poc community, ur community that white ppl hav told u countless times 2 stay away from and after finally realising that u do belong and working up the courage 2 go 2 that community u get told that "no, ur 2 white 4 us" and then on top of that when u finally get some form of rep in media it's all "this doesn't add diversity" and "this isn't real poc rep" and once again pitting us against our own community, so sick of this bs *it's not a privilege 2 hav 2 deal w/ a lifetime of being poc enough 2 experience racism but 2 white 2 hav those experiences acknowledged and it's not a privilege 2 b looked down upon by ur own community in the same way and having every1 tell u ur "basically white" while also getting shit 4 having different hair or a different body type which u hav bc ur mixed or getting called mixed specific racial slurs, lowkey "white passing privilege" imo is just the same as "straight passing privilege" it's just used 2 b shitty 2 ppl within our own communities and it's not as much of a privilege as ppl like 2 make it out 2 b
