This is a somewhat-long article, but it's very interesting. Here are a couple of snippets:
I suspect that placing all of the blame for historical crimes on white people is strangely comforting for white leftists: it advances a vision of the world where only white people matter. It says that the sun rises and sets with white people. It suggests that white people wrote history. It assures white people that, no matter what else is true, they are the masters of the world. ... Meanwhile, the price of the obsessive fixation on white people as the sole movers of all history and current events leaves us in a world where people of color are cast as permanent children, well thought of, constantly “honored” and “celebrated,” occasionally worthy of a little help and a little liberty, but ultimately subject forever to the whims of white people, buffeted by hatred on one side and by toxic condescension on the other. https://freddiedeboer.substack.com/p/people-of-color-have-agency -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
