Genius! It took me a few readings to understand the nuance. I have lived in four continents in different countries; “rubbed shoulders” with all kinds; have been subjected to horrendous “racism” by both “whites” and “non-whites” -as every society has both racist and non-racist. 1/ https://twitter.com/TitaniaMcGrath/status/1263933059323367427
Racism is not exclusive forte of “Euro-whites”! And it’s not exclusive binary of “Euro-white” (“west”) - “Non-Euro-White” alone. There is inter-continental racism, there is inter-regional racism (East Asian and South Asian and West Asian can be racist towards each other), and 2/
there is intra-regional (Chinese, Japanese & Koreans can be very racist towards each other, and all three can be collectively very racist towards south-east Asians and vice versa) and intra-regional within a political boundary, not necessarily delineated by language/culture 3/
and of course skin tone spectrum based in the “sub-Saharan Africans” as what for “outsiders” would be “same people” could be different for them in nuanced skin tone differentiations. Once a Kenyan African dude called another Kenyan African dude as “that black guy”, baffling us 4/
-for he explained the other guy was “darker”!!! And of course this has ugliest manifestation amongst the “Latinos” with the “Latinos” who immigrate north mostly being “mixed race”, lower in social pecking order, with tiny “white” (who are but nominal, mostly mixed but paler) 5/
on top of the pyramid both economically and socially. And yet those mixed (mestizos) would themselves have denigrated and dehumanised the “Latinos” of African descent to the point they are not even visible in countries like Mexico. But last redoubt of unbridled “Euro-white” 6/
racism is daily, casually and culturally practiced in Australia; with the racism and misogyny so very pervasive that it appears as if a necessary twin curse of having inherited a jumbo island brimming with resources and having decimated the oldest human societies to the brink. 7/
Although there are a few disagreements here -this following thread does hold true. Very unvarnished and very unemotional truth, which validates my own very much lived experiences, being on the receiving end of both “white” and “non-white” racism equally 👉 https://twitter.com/amirpars_/status/1268898468766134279?s=21 https://twitter.com/AmirPars_/status/1268898468766134279

“Non-traditional whites” like Irish, Italians & Jews; themselves on the recieving end of intense racism for long, who struggled to be admitted as “white” till the 80s —can be very intensely overtly racist to “non-whites” 👉 https://twitter.com/rodnmarks/status/1270521608940240898?s=21 https://twitter.com/RodNMarks/status/1270521608940240898
