Race is a Social Construct : Western Racialization and its Downfall Thanks to Historic Mail for sponsoring this. Go to https://lnkd.in/dMfw3Nmg for 10% off their Holiday Sale when you use the code CYNICAL Race is not as simple as epidural coloration or any phenotype for that matter. These racial borders are easily crossed and don’t even precisely map onto skintone nor anything deeper. Afterall, I do not become a different race by getting a good tan. Race is not biologically derived and indeed has a history to its social construction. Racialization is a distinct historical process. It has a story to it with consequences. This episode is ultimately about how race became a thing, as in how society constructed the ideology behind this abstract category here is

Free Article! Journal of Class & Culture 1.1 Intersecting oppressions; intersecting struggles: Race, class and subalternity This article offers intersectional theories of racism another way to think about Gramsci’s work; it will explore how Gramsci operationalizes the category of subaltern groups. It begins by briefly reviewing how Gramsci’s work is discussed in contemporary theoretical approaches to racism in the work of Kimberlé Crenshaw, Patricia Hill Collins, Michael Omi and Howard Winant and Stuart Hall. It will stress important similarities regarding the relationship between structural and social forces, political ideologies and consciousness. It will note how both ‘intersectionality’ and ‘articulation’ (one variant of this concept discussed by Hall) show how racism can be amplified through the overlapping or overdetermination of identities, representations and societal effects.

I highly recommend this book, The Color of Law. The author, Richard Rothstein, documents and thoroughly explains how the government intentionally created policies, laws, and rules that enforced residential racial segregation. Including how federal government sponsored homeownership programs were designed to exclude Black people and other people of color. This book should be a must read in history classes. #redlining #history #systemicracism #education #educateyourself #civilrights #racialzoning

Pivot Point: Are you kidding Me? He says that racism is a manufactured problem. I share this piece to highlight one example of how DEI and racial justice is being framed by the conservative Claremont Institute and one of its largest funders, Thomas Klingenstein. Such think tanks are helping to create the far right narrative about DEI and about efforts to create a more diverse and inclusive democracy. To create transformative change we must seek to understand the motives of those who push back on DEI as a way of identifying tactics to counter such misleading narratives. Therefore I present Klingenstein's perspective. What do you think?

The New Jim Crow Is the Old Jim Crow - PDF: https://lnkd.in/gMfFqWZq A vast divide exists in the national imagination between the racial struggles of the civil rights era and the racial inequality of the present. The attitudes and legal strategies of segregationists in the civil rights era are conceptualized as explicit, gross, and founded exclusively in raw racial animus. In contrast, racial inequality in the present is conceptualized as subtle, subconscious, and structural. The causes of modern racial inequality—and the obstacles to its remediation—are thus characterized as fundamentally distinct from those undergirding historical racial inequality. Drawing on the recent work of Elizabeth Gillespie McRae and Jeanne Theoharis, as well as other historians of the South and the civil rights movement, this Book Review argues that this oversimplified account obscures key continuities between our racial past and present. As the work of McRae, Theoharis, and others has shown, facially race-neutral opposition to racial equality and integration did not originate in the modern era but rather long predated Brown v. Board of Education in both the North and the South. Moreover, many of the justifications that segregationists offered for their actions—such as a desire for good schools and safe neighborhoods—do not look so very different from the justifications that we continue to rely on to legitimatize racial inequality today. Thus, an accurate accounting of our national history of racial discrimination—rather than substantiating a sharp break between past and present—reveals many uncomfortable continuities. This Book Review suggests that recognizing and coming to terms with this more complex history is critical to contemporary racial-equality work, both in and outside the courts. #Racism #Ethnicity #Colorblindess #reactionformation #Plessy #Brown #SCOTUS #AmericanStudies #residentialsegregtion #segregation #whitesupremacy #JimCrow #JimCrowLaws #democracy

“To fully make reparations for the violations of Black people’s rights, we must do more: We must create the conditions for a true multiracial democracy. Reparations go beyond the financial; they mean demanding the cessation of policies that infringe on Black peoples’ rights and suppress Black political power. Reparations also demand that we learn from the ways the United States has violated core democratic principles, and redress that harm by creating a political system where the tenets of democracy are extended to everyone.” Read more from Liberation Ventures in the Stanford Social Innovation Review:

Author & Anti-Racist Content Creator grounded in Higher Education Equity, Democracy, NonViolence and NonStealing. I imagine a USA where race no longer predicts outcomes.
🎉 Topping Off an Amazing Week of Celebration 🎉 Happy Friday, Everyone! 👀 The first few months of 1st Book release can feel like watching a field of just-planted dirt. 👀 But if ever 1st sprouts held promise for my treatment plan for #democracy (#12swa) this one is letting me know I'm not crazy to imagine an incredible harvest. ❓ What exactly is planted ❓ 🎯 Imagine what AA did for the treatment of alcoholism in the 20th century and 🎯 Apply that to what this 12 Step Tx plan for democracy can do in the 21st century for a USA where race no longer predicts outcomes 🌟 NOTE: Something so incredibly poetic 🌟 This treatment plan for democracy ➡ for “A” USA was showcased in Times Square (midtown) on the same day that jurors (downtown) found a former president ➡ of “THE” USA guilty on 34 counts of criminal conduct. 📣 Democracy has not so much failed as we have yet to try it. 📣 “THE” USA has never been free from advantage rigged for elites, the very purpose of creating a category called ‘White” in colonial law. This system of rigged advantage persists into the present, relying on legacies of plantation slavery. "A" USA where race no longer predicts outcomes is possible if we do the work. What is the work? Twelve Steps For White America presents a pathway for individual repentance, atonement and redemption that, en masse, can lead to national truth, reconciliation and renewal. #highereducation #publishing #diversity #inclusion Weaving Influence Becky Robinson Wendy Haan Stephen George Cecily Kellogg Nicole Anderson (she/her/hers) Desireé Duffy 🦋 Natasha (Tash) Durkins Danne Smith Mathis, FRSA, MPW, CF APMP SIDNEY MCNAIRY III Karen Fleshman, Esq.
