The 8 White Identities
by Barnor Hesse

White Supremacist
Clearly marked white society that preserves, names, and values white superiority

White Voyeurism
Wouldn't challenge a white supremacist; desires non-whiteness because it's interesting, pleasurable; seeks to control the consumption and appropriation of non-whiteness; fascination with culture (ex: consuming
Black culture without the burden of Blackness)

White Privilege
May critique supremacy, but a deep investment in questions of fairness/equality under the normalization of whiteness and the white rule; sworn goal of 'diversity'

White Benefit
Sympathetic to a set of issues but only privately; won't speak act in solidarity publicly because benefitting through whiteness in public (some POC are in this category as well)

White Confessional
Some exposure of whiteness takes place, but as a way of being accountable to POC after; seek validation from POC

White Critical
Take on board critiques of whiteness and invest in exposing/marking the white regime; refuses to be complicit with the regime; whiteness speaking back to whiteness

White Traitor
Actively refuses complicity; names what's going on; intention is to subvert white authority and tell the truth at whatever cost; need them to dismantle institutions

White Abolitionist
Changing institutions, dismantling whiteness, and not allowing whiteness to reassert itself

Not gonna share the video of Republican US Senator Tim Sheehy breaking a protesting Marine's hand, but you can find it on @charlotteclymer.bsky.social's timeline.

I'll just say that in a functional country, Sheehy would be expelled by the Senate.

Democratic Senators should publicly push for that.

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

What's interesting is that this is in English and intended for an English-speaking audience, which is to say... Us. All of us out here on Al Gore's internet who speak English as our first language.

To be clear just because their creeps are resigning from their well paid positions we should still shame them every moment of their lives.

seconding Leverage & all three Knives Out movies -- also see if Resident Alien w/ Alan Tudyk piques your interest, I think I only saw season 1.

I love your work - it is inspiring me to do a small (4") freeform piece w/ beading.

It should get you consequences that have been redacted after my legal team did not just advise me but in fact ganged up on me, thumping big law dictionaries into their hands with meaningful looks.

They'll say, "It's all too complicated! Better to not say 'Abolish ICE!' 🀑"

But it's not complicated.

It's not hard to justify opposing fascism in the US. At all.

What's hard, is justifying opposing fascism for everyone else, but keeping it for Black people.

That's an impossible argument to make
