The It's ok to be white ?

Nobody said it wasn’t. Fascists always play the victim.

That is the poster I saw featured.

'Meanwhile White Supremicist posters begin popping up around U.K. towns.'
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes, that’s what I said.

There’s a full report in the article I posted.

Read the article, I assume you can read?

There are some white people who feel guilty about their racial accident of birth and a small political narrative now derided "whiteness" as we can see in America, more than UK.

Posters advocating white power supremacy are a different matter of course.

Just as black power supremacy is wrong too.

If a person can be proud to be black, can another be proud to be white?

If we have black culture, do we have white culture?

I and others have been told I am privileged for being white, but I challenge this.

I may not be black or suffer racism, but like most people I do not come from a privileged background and am not responsible for slavery or apartheid or segregation or racism....historically or today.

I don’t need to, they already know.

am not responsible for slavery or apartheid or segregation or racism....historically or today.
_----------
I'm not disagreeing with this sentiment of course but still, you live in a world that is entirely shaped by those things and you are living under those influences, whether you like it or not. That's decision was made for you many years ago.

Not just racism or apartheid alone, but all social issues (wealth and distribution of it, locally and internationally is an issue at all levels of society) have contributed each their part to leave us where we are today.

Just because someone isn't responsible for something doesn't mean they can act like it didn't actually happen. It all happened, and its precisely because of it that we are where we are.

Opinion or action that goes against that is a denial of the world you find yourself born into IMO.

So you would tell white kids to work harder and say nothing to black kids ?

Cal๐Ÿ‘

I know you left the politics election thread, but just a heads up!

Few regulars are posting about personsl family mental health issues and as i had one of my old poor sleep nights, i came accross it just now at 3am ๐Ÿ˜ข

They may benefit from your experiences and knowledge, mate, but no pressure dude๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜€

Sounds like Hawk and Insert have brothers who perhaps you could relate to or assist?

Sorry if I have overstepped the mark.

Kloppy.

You don't get it from my perspective.

In Belfast and Ireland and many parts of England and wales and Scotland, everyone is white and it has only changed in recent years, so the white privilege thing did not apply.

Seriously, if you compare life between a POC in London and a Belfast of Glasgow person, I doubt the Belfast or Glasgow kid has a head start.


That does not mean racism is not a thing and I would also ask why Africa or ME have not looked after people there and progressed like the West?

When is the cut off point blaming white people for everything.???
