i saw the video of the proud boys burning the black lives matter sign. it made me think of a conversation between fred moten and robin dg kelley. eradication of white supremacy leads to violent acts of desperation, not necessarily emboldening. Those were desperate white people
i think there will be more violent desperate acts because they need a cause to feel empowered. but their cause continues to grow lost, and they are witnessing the largest racial justice movements in the history of these borders. they are desperate
they wanna have reasons to march and chant and feel oppressed, so they create enemies and feign vulnerability, when white supremacy threatens them too. It kills the souls of white folk, and limits the potential of their improved material conditions
and Black Lives Matter will never matter to people who don’t even believe that white lives matter
oh, i say all this to say, let’s keep organizing. :)
