Have you ever counted how many senior Indigenous & other women of colour sociologists exist in Australia? I have. Take a moment to guess about the extent to which the struggles we face in our careers are understood, supported or even given a second thought by senior White women
Now think about why White women do not incorporate critical race theory into their research, teaching and practice. Why White women sociologists think they are above race, "not racist" and yet ignore Talkin' Up to the White Woman while they claim to be decolonising sociology.
And consider why White sociologists keep giving one another awards, take up keynotes and panels, and exclusively citing White sociologists' appropriation of postcolonialism but never take proactive steps to inclusion & intersectionality of Indigenous & other #WOC scholars in AUS.
Finally: there's a reason why sociologists of colour position our scholarship - especially on race - with reference to our race and culture. Race is not something we can switch off. Race is not an abstract idea with vague recommendations. We know race is structural inequality
Reason why White sociologists & other researchers NEVER think race matters (unless they are race scholars): they can ride White supremacy in the academy without reflecting on how they are the beneficiaries of White supremacy How will *Whiteness* EVER 'decolonise sociology'?
