Fewer White Cops = Less Police Brutality

A recent study has discovered that having fewer White police officers may reduce the cases of police brutality that occur in the US nearly every day of each year. The study, published Friday by the American Association for the Advancement of Science, is entitled, “The role of officer race and gender in police-civilian interactions in…

The Racist Legacy of Colonialism Continues

The corona virus is killing Black, Hispanic, and Native American peoples out of proportion to their presence in the United States. Is that part of the reason White Americans aren’t taking it seriously, or is it just that the media keeps publishing articles on the rampant disease? Whatever the reason(s), the truth is that POC…

White Women Are a Problem

The Capitol Riot has, for the most part, been blamed on White racist men – ‘White male rage’, ‘angry White men’, and ‘violent male rage’ are the terms used to describe the Trump-worshiping mob that stormed the Capitol, trashing offices, fighting police officers (even killing one), and sending panicked senators, congress people, and others fleeing…

Yes, The Republican Party is Full of Racists

Make no bones about it. White Republicans are supremacists, racist to the core. Every conservative person I have known has held bigoted views that often slipped out during a conversation – “But I don’t mean you!” – or made some other remark that could only be seen as prejudiced even when they went on to…

Police Kill The Mentally Ill, Part 3

Yesterday afternoon, I was riding with a relative to a local dollar store when I noticed a homeless person wrapped in a blanket, sleeping on the pavement inside a bus stop shelter. I hoped that no police officer stopped by to ‘mess with’ the person, because if that person happened to be mentally ill, the…

Police Kill The Mentally Ill, Part 2

There are certain segments of society who are looked down upon by nearly everyone else, and the police are no exception. They can go on A&E’s The First 48 and all those Investigation Discovery shows declaring that the victim’s lifestyle has nothing to do with a case being solved or not all they want. The…

Police Kill The Mentally Ill, Part 1

If you are suffering from a mental health crisis in America, you’d better not involve police. If you are suicidal, there’s a chance that you’ll die even if you don’t take your own life. If you are simply going through an episode, you might not come out of it because cops will kill you. It…

White Baptists = White Racists

The antics of White people never cease to amaze – and infuriate – me. They are so into racism and the notion of their own supposed ‘superiority’ over others, especially Blacks, that it has to be one of the reasons those people age so quickly. Hate is a very strong emotion so it stands to…

Evangelical Trumpism Marches On (Sigh)

Just when you start to think that Evangelical Christians in the US have sunk as low as they can possibly go, the bar is lowered another inch. What the hell are these people thinking? Jewish space lasers? School shootings are fake? How about that deranged Mike Lindell and his open worship of Donald Trump? These…

Global White Privilege

White privilege is global. Yes, it is – you can talk about anti-White racism in Asia and Africa until you’re blue in the face but the fact is, everywhere that White people go they are fully accepted. I reiterate: White. Privilege. Is. Global. Feminist scholar and anti-racism educator Peggy McIntosh famously described white privilege as an “invisible…
