riverThe idea of collective white responsibility for historical actions or white guilt only serves to center the white person and give them the task of the great arbiter of justice. We don’t need that shiiii. We need real systemic change.
Yams@revoltthetruth The idea of collective white responsibility for historical actions is dumb and mostly used and forwarded along by racist people. If someone were to take an argument like this seriously then every race would have collective responsibility for the people they enslaved due to every race having it in their history.
@yams yeah cuz like if we’re going to essentialize by race it plays in to every racist trope about white people creating this thing or that thing. There’s a big difference between writing a wrong and examining our personal prejudice vs taking responsibility for our ancestors.
