They can definitely discriminate against each other and uphold white supremacy but as far as systemic and institutional oppression it's not so. Even in Brazil's racial democracy where most people proudly lay claim to a degree of African ancestry, white supremacy reigns. The institutional part is important because…
I can't even look at it to be honest. Just seeing the pictures makes me sick.
I think I'm more sad for her than anything. She needs our help. It reminds me of the guy from Vybz Kartel who basically gave an interview basically saying his life was better since bleaching his skin.

You're trying very hard to…
Do you think ideas, concepts and ways of thinking die when people die? You're mistaken my friend. We live a white supremacist society in which racism is still very much alive. And I've met my fair share of white people who have treated me as less than human. Of course I know not all white people are like that, my…

I guess I'm a size 7? I prefer a princess cut diamond. Thanks! :)
