This is part of why I don't believe in changing hearts and minds and why that hasn't worked.

To the folks quote tweeting this going, "I was a racist and I was educated to be better" Good for you. I'm glad. But that does not invalidate the situation. You were the exception. Not the rule. If education worked broadly on this issue we wouldn't be here. My people have been...

trying to educate folks into humanity for 400 years. You can only teach who wants to learn. The rest you have to take away their power to do harm. Simple as that.

what a bunch of folks aren't getting is that they think this is an individual problem that can be solved by individualistic means rather than a systemic and a power problem. The goal is destroying white supremacy's power to do harm. You can't force people into goodness but...

you can engineer a society where it's benefitted and supported and where abuse and destruction of others isn't.

And I am entirely unsprised there are a number of folks in here proving my point left right and center.
