You can be a “good person” and still be a white supremacist.
You can be in the process of becoming an ally to People of Color and still be a white supremacist.
You can “have accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior” and still be a white supremacist.
You can have the best intentions and still be a white supremacist.
It will take our whole lives to begin unraveling white supremacy. But it won’t be finished. Not even with daily practice and sacrifice and awareness and deeds. We start the work now; we seed it, knowing we will not, can not know the flower.
I was born into the dystopia of white supremacy. I have supported and continue to support white supremacy by going to my day job and buying the things and following the rules.
I am a white supremacist and so are you, my white brethren, who were born into this nightmare called America. We cannot bypass acknowledging this reality and hope to undo it. We cannot lay it down, shirk its weight, or turn away from this responsibility.
Putting our hands to tearing down this world that lulls us to endless sleep is the most important thing we will ever do.
