If your history is full of villains, don't reclaim it—dismantle it. A manifesto for architects, not heirs. We explore why whiteness is a double-bladed weapon and how to forge a self-esteem that doesn't rely on the poverty of melanin.

Pride & Prejudice: A Call to Dismantle Whiteness From Within

A call to dismantle the construct of whiteness from within. This essay analyzes the "Ouroboric Catch-22" of modern allyship and proposes a structural framework for Third Culture Kids (TCKs) and white Americans to build intentional culture out of a fractured history.

Radical Compassion Doesn’t Mean Forgiving the Irredeemable

Radical empathy and radical compassion are central to my philosophy, anarcho-compassionism. They call for seeing others fully, understanding their struggles, their fears, their backgrounds, and even the ways they hurt others. They ask us to listen deeply, to hold space for humanity in all its forms, and to recognize that everyone, even oppressors, is shaped by complex forces. But radical compassion is not moral relativism. It is not an excuse to align ourselves with those who do harm or to […]

Why Calling Nick Fuentes a ‘White Fred Hampton’ Isn’t Just Wrong — It’s Threatening

Frimpong’s video titled “Nick Fuentes: White Fred Hampton. Hear Me Out!” attempts to position Fuentes — a known white nationalist — as analogous to Fred Hampton, the legendary Black Panther and multiracial working‑class organizer. On its face, the move seems provocative — perhaps intentionally so — but on closer inspection it reveals a deeply incoherent political logic, one that betrays both the memory of Hampton and any serious account of solidarity across race, class, and […]

Ashleigh Ratcliffe & Rosie Evans wrote a blog post presenting their booklet on how to improve gender diversity in mathematical research: “We acknowledge that opportunities can arise due to who you know or are introduced to. Sharing of information, opportunities and networks is invaluable, especially to first generation PhD students and minoritised groups.”

A good challenge to those of us who ask how to be an ally or a better ally, or whether allyship is a useful mode…

I’ve been thinking a lot about John Brown recently and a colleague asked just this (how can I be a better ally?) at an event last week. It was a well-meant question but it shows a gulf of understanding. Interestingly the recipient of the question recommended Emma Dabiri’s book, which would probably characterise John Brown as White Saviour.

At another point in the meeting I said that we should be focusing our efforts on training and development for white people “like me” - and a colleague of colour questioned why I included myself in this. After all I was there (and I do the work for sure): but I have to constantly question my motives, actions and awareness, and whether I’m just performing.

And John Brown certainly wasn’t performing.

Non-Jews, if you're sick of the Jews you know talking about antisemitism all the time, then maybe the answer is to do something about antisemitism.

The International PRIDE Centre Oct 30

Being an ally isn’t just about bold activism sometimes it’s about quiet courage.
A pride pin on your bag.
A respectful correction in a meeting.
A reminder that someone is safe with you.

In hostile environments, allyship begins with presence and grows with action. 🏳️‍🌈
