Why Are White People Talking About This?
What i is a white supremacist?
“White supremacy culture is reproduced by all the institutions of our society. In particular the media, the education system, western science (which played a major role in reinforcing the idea of race as a biological truth with the white race as the "ideal" top of the hierarchy), and the Christian church have played central roles in reproducing the idea of white supremacy (i.e. that white is "normal," "better," "smarter," "holy" in contrast to Black and other People and Communities of Color).”
Characteristics of White Supremacy Culture • Perfectionism • Power Hoarding • Sense of Urgency • Fear of Open Conflict • Defensiveness • Individualism • Quantity Over Quality • I’m the Only One • Worship of the Written Word • Progress is Bigger, More • Only One Right Way • Objectivity • Paternalism • Right to Comfort • Either/Or Thinking
