What this moment is asking of us is to discuss *white supremacy and racism* as much - or possibly more than - *white supremacists and racists.* When we do that, I believe we will start to make progress. — PolitiTweet.org

Recognizing white supremacy in ourselves - our institutions, our subconscious, our own past remarks or acts (no matter how consciously unintentional), is what makes the healing work ahead challenging. But it is not impossible,and confronting it is the only way to move forward. — PolitiTweet.org

But it is incredibly important that we recognize that perfectly normal, good people are capable of aiding racism & white supremacy. Recognizing that is not about pillorying people. It’s about learning to recognize *the virus* & end an oppressive system designed to hurt us *all.* — PolitiTweet.org
