Keep this White Supremacy Pyramid handy. You'll never know when you may need it...

(Actually, you and I both know that you'll ALWAYS need it. Just trying to be polite.)

1. Great chart - I like where "Make America Great Again" lines up. n/t

9. Make America Great Again should be on the overt side!! nt

2. I always considered myself a white ally.

Sorry, I didn't realize that made me a bad person. I'll stop.

[MrScorpio]

3. Just the self-appointed part, that's what to watch out for.

If you're truly an ally, don't worry, you'll be informed about it.

However, being an ally is expected of you. It's called being a decent human being.

Even so, there won't be any prizes handed out just because you are one.

13. Okay?

If this picture made you stop being an ally to Black Americans, you never were one. Your fragile feelings aren't going to be coddled to in this space.

4. What is wrong with the "But we're just one human family" line?

An honest question - I've never seen this used in a way that would be considered racist. But perhaps I am missing something.

[MrScorpio]

5. It falls into the same category of "All lives matter."

It fails to regard the fact that black people are routinely dehumanized in a white supremacist society. Basically, applying white reality onto black people.

6. This pyramid

left out accusations of "playing the race card", but I guess that might go under "blaming the victim". When people accuse you of playing the race card, they want to pretend that the grievances of disadvantaged groups are all make-believe, that it's all just a game, and they want us to shut up. Also the "reverse racism" thing really makes me mad. There's no such thing as "reverse racism", and the concept doesn't make sense except when used by bullies to claim victim status.

7. Damn skippy! nt

8. A little bit off topic

But my SIL works in prison corrections--he's now an investigator as well as on a couple of special teams--like SWAT--Guess which gang is the MOST problematic? Yup. White supremacists.

Now, If I was to guess, from my white perspective and given the geographical area and racial makeup, I would have thought Latino gangs.

Nope all over that.

Now do "we" (we as in white people) hear about "White gangs", nearly as often as other types? Nope. When "we" hear "gang-related shootings"--practically a code for AA gangs-- are we thinking white gangs? Hell no we aren't. Does the media even refer such shootings as"gang-related"? I wonder.

Language carries our cultural freight, always.

Anyway--Handy graphic, thank you
