Any white female historians out there willing to say they are against racism full stop? #Starkey

That literally does not say anything about being "against racism full stop." You trying to explain antiracism to a Black woman here? Try again.

Hint: Saying "it's possible to be an antiracist" while centering yourself is *different* than saying "this guy is racist and he sucks"

Yes, but it wasn’t meant to be either/or. David Starkey is racist and his ideas are abhorrent. I am avowedly anti-racist, which means I am against racism full stop, wherever I find it. (He’s also sexist, by the way.)

The problem here was twofold: namely, our discussions of his racism should not centre ourselves (saying that we are anti-racist vs Starkey) and the white dude who refuses to see this and now thinks we’re calling him and you a racist for saying this.
