​​@@damonfisher5984The fact that she is black, and a woman... that is WHY she made it that far, bc of "affirmative action". When you see that such a person CANNOT describe what a woman is, you know everything you need to know!

Techniques for nonviolently REVEALING racism: 1. Naming: explicitly mentioning race by name--using words such as “racism,” “racial inequality,” “racial discrimination,” “racial bias,” etc. --so that racism gets acknowledged and addressed. 2. Framing: using a racial frame to describe an issue--e.g. “racial profiling,” “environmental racism,” “transit racism,” “racial redlining,” "real estate racism," etc.--so that institutional accountability and policy change becomes a central focus of the debate. 3. Explaining: making the existence of racism easily understandable and believable by: •Using concrete evidence, •Pointing out patterns, connections and causes •Placing the focus of attention on institutional targets, •Appealing to people’s core values of fairness, •Borrowing legitimacy and moral authority from respected sources, • Using irrefutable personal stories to illustrate systemic patterns, etc.

Why no Asian representation here

It just makes me sick that some Asian people think black people that get into these institutions are not smart, or didn't work hard to achieve that accomplishment.

Oh destroyed that news school bull crap!

Katanga (?) Doesn't know the difference between a boy and a girl. Does she know the difference between blacks and Asians?

Long time should stop absurd

You. Want me go to you game

Beware of these Top 10 Techniques used to CONCEAL the system of white supremacy racism: 1. Denying: totally ignoring racism or simply asserting that racism does not exist. 2. Deflecting: insisting that any inequality is based on class, culture, ethnicity, family values… anything, but race. Or using words like “diversity” or “ethnicity” when you’re really talking about race -- because any acknowledgement of race may be an admission that there’s racism. 3. Coding: using certain words, symbols and images to evoke racial fears--but not explicitly mentioning race--so as not to appear racist. (Words such as “gang member,” “illegal alien,” and “welfare queen”--all frequently associated with images of people of color--are routinely and strategically inserted into policy debates. Political ads--such as President Bush Sr.’s use of the Willie Horton ad to conjure up white fears of black men, or former California Governor Pete Wilson’s ads of undocumented immigrants--were racist tools used to win elections.) 4. Confusing: cleverly appointing token Black people to positions to act as spokespersons or leaders to promote and justify racist measures or deny that something is racist. 5. Personalizing: blaming individuals, instead of institutions, for anything that may seem unequal or racist. 6. Exceptionalizing: acknowledging that there may be an extremist or “bad apple” responsible for a racist act, but never conceding that there is any institutional accountability or systemic inequality. 7. Scapegoating: holding people who are adversely affected by racism responsible for their own plight, blaming things on their “pathological” value and lifestyles, such as laziness, promiscuity or lack of “personal responsibility.” 8. Mythologizing: appealing to the great American myths: anyone who tries can succeed (myth of meritocracy); everyone/everything is equal (myth of the level playing field), or race is irrelevant (colorblind myth), etc. 9. Decontextualizing: ignoring the context of racism so that things appear to be isolated incidents, rather than part of a pattern or bigger picture. The evening television news is notorious for this, portraying, for example, a violent crime in a black neighborhood without any examination of the causes or.context. Similarly, when white people raise charges of so-called “reverse racism,” it ignores history, white privilege and the ongoing existence of a very uneven playing field. 10. Lying: simply asserting that racism doesn’t exist even when you know it does. It’s easier to lie since telling the truth might mean having to admit responsibility. In fact, sometimes the bigger the lie, the more people believe it.

Different Levels of Racism (1) Structural Racism in the U.S. is the normalization and legitimization of an array of dynamics--historical, cultural, institutional and interpersonal--that routinely advantage whites while producing cumulative and chronic adverse outcomes for people of color. Structural racism encompasses the entire system of white domination, diffused and infused in all aspects of society, including its history, culture, politics, economics and entire social fabric. Structural racism is more difficult to locate in a particular institution because it involves the reinforcing effects of multiple institutions and cultural norms, past and present, continually reproducing old, and producing new forms of racism. Structural racism is the most profound and pervasive form of racism-all other forms of racism emerge from structural racism. (2) Institutional Racism-unequal impacts and outcomes based on race, produced by key societal institutions such as the health care and housing systems, and education and employment systems. These institutions are racist when the impact of their policies, practices and power is to advantage and disadvantage whole groups of people along racial lines. When an individual acts within the context of an institution, and help to perpetuate these racial inequities, these actions are no longer just interpersonal actions, but rather institutional actions. (Thus, when a police officer treats a member of the public with racial bias--such as giving white people the benefit of the doubt while presuming people of color are guilty-- this action is institutional racism since the police officer is acting as a representative of a law enforcement institution.) Unequal impacts based on race are the measure of institutional racism, regardless of whether or not the disproportionate and discriminatory effects are intentional. Institutional racism is not just carried out by white people but also by people of color acting in institutional capacities, "just doing their jobs" and implementing decisions that have a negative effect on people of color. (3) Individual/Internalized Racism-personal and private attitudes and beliefs about race influenced by the dominant culture. Manifestations include: race-based xenophobia (based on fear and ignorance of people unlike yourself), internalized oppression (acceptance of negative stereotypes and deflated images about yourself and those in your racial group), and internalized white privilege (a well-developed sense of entitlement; or acceptance of inflated or superior images of yourself and those in your racial group). Definition of “Racial Justice”: •Racial Justice is the proactive reinforcement of policies, practices, attitudes and actions that produce equitable power, opportunities, treatment, impacts and outcomes for all. Equitable impacts and outcome across race is the key indicator of racial justice. • Racial Justice is not the same as racial diversity. There can be diversity without equity. Integration is certainly beneficial, but not sufficient to produce equity. For example, in 1954, the U.S. Supreme Court ordered the integration of all public schools. Yet our schools remain highly unequal. Even fully and partially integrated schools, experience racial “achievement gaps” and other disparities across race. A “diversity” focus primarily addresses the symptoms of racism--with the goal of minimizing racial tensions and maximizing people’s ability to tolerate difference and get along. A “racial justice focus primarily addresses the causes of inequality and the solutions and strategies for producing equity. • Racial Justice is not the same as multi-culturalism. Culture is only one aspect of race. Another, even more significant aspect of race, is power. Race is a social construct that stems from differences in power--imbalances and abuses of power that underlie the categories of race and the culture of racism. Efforts to promote cultural awareness, sensitivity and inclusiveness are important steps towards, but are not the same as, racial justice. If one ignores the dynamics of power and simply treats race as a cultural phenomenon, racism will be perpetuated, even if things appear to be more multi-cultural. • Racial Justice is not simply equality. Things can be equal, but still not fair. For example, schools with the highest concentrations of students of color, often have a disproportionate number of students who need subsidized meals, special education services and bilingual education services. These schools require more funding than schools that have more wealthy and white students. Rather than each school receive the same--or equal--funding, schools should receive fair--or equitable--funding, based on need. Diversity = Variety Equality = Sameness Equity = Fairness, Justice
