    They usually say, "I'm not racist" or "No, you're the racist" or "I am the least racist person." This denial speak is new: "very much not racist."https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/europe/prince-william-response-racism-britain/2021/03/11/c5de88ce-825d-11eb-be22-32d331d87530_story.html …

        I think the immediate defensive response from William says a lot. White fragility is very much alive and kicking.

        Shows lack of self examination. If white, as I am, I guarantee that there is at the very least some bias or view or assumption that u/I hold that is rooted in racism. I can guarantee that u/I have either consciously/unconsciously committed at the very least micro aggression.

        In their defense the family rolls out Musharraf Hussain, who says, "They're not racist" because "there are ... lots of innocent reasons to ask about a baby’s skin tone, eye color, or hair color." Really?

        lol I would love to know those reasons. Eye colour... perhaps. Hair colour, his father is famously ginger so yeah okay. But skin tone??? No

        if everybody is racist but we should try to be less racist, how should we talk about it?

        First, read @DrIbram books and a host of others. The first step is admitting you are racist and it’s a systemic problem all around and then begin the discussion.

        The Commonwealth is so very racist. Its actions caused the genocide of many indigenous populations in the world; provided the infrastructure for all branches of the Atlantic trade of enslaved Africans; and established second-class passports for Brown and Black people.

        He’s a walking monument for colonialism, race and birth hierarchy. He’s part of a system that believes his blood is special/superior bc of breading. That’s exactly what white supremacy is built on
