📖 White Supremacy: A Short History
"Focussing on the English-speaking world, he examines how ideas of whiteness connect to the history of slavery, Enlightenment thought, European colonialism, Social Darwinism and eugenics, fascism and capitalism. Far from being the natural order of things, Broich demonstrates that white supremacy is a brittle concept."

Just FYI, this film is available for streaming on PBS right now:
I’ve decided to be the reply gal when men talking about activism or politics mention that women deserve more recognition.
It’s like the Bechdel test for male “leftists.”
Do you just like talking or are you actually going to uplift women? Cuz there’s ALOT of people you can uplift…and a little hint, most of them aren’t white.
The divide on the left is about people who want “liberation for all” vs “liberation for me”
Community is the answer.

I think it's rather rooted in the common arrogant USamerican picture of themselves as being superior to everything and everyone "best country in the world"🙄 partly out of #whitesupremacy partly out of lack of education (on purpose). He is (just) a poster example of both. 😬
So with him apparently greedy power "gone lose", lawless, reckless.
Edit: He is not someone with an ideology but only a greedy, stupid narcissist. And that's why he is such a useful tool for some. #steve_bannon
Just opened todon and already blocked 2 people sharing ableist slurs for fascists.
So, just a reminder:
- Ableism depoliticises fascism.
- Ableism = eugenics = White supremacy.
- You don't fight fascism with more fascism. You fight fascism with solidarity.
@stux I know Jim Browning is a pretty famous #scam baiter but on the other hand I sympathize with a brown person thinking that being white will increase their chances of getting a #job. I don't know if that's the case here but I know there are hard working brown skin people just trying everything they can to earn money. This is a symptom of #WhiteSupremacy in an extremely unfair world.
P.S. this video is funny AF.
