Its dead af at the bar tonight so im working my way through #ARapOnRace. Big thoughts from Baldwin about the fractionation of american society and how it contributes to marginalization of every minority group #JamesBaldwin #MargaretMead #pillastorytime

Heres a wild story about James Baldwin trying to cash a check in the south. Very interesting stuff about needing to give someone an 'out' to save face in the south, a concept that definitely does not exist in new york city #JamesBaldwin #ARapOnRace #pillastorytime

Representation is important!!! You have no idea what life experiences the people you meet have and what lessons theyll learn from things they see you do #JamesBaldwin #MargaretMead #ARapOnRace #pillastorytime

Last one for the night. Circled bit has been getting to me - they talk about black people code switching earlier, and here Mead brings up new guinea villagers code switching between their own tribe/other tribes/white people and mentions that >>more generally code switching is kinda just an integral part of effectively communicating in multicultural settings<< which im pondering as i try to summarize theory on a shitposting forum #yeet #piss #fortnite #minecraft #tiktok #t4t #pillastorytime
