It is colonial violence that positions Aboriginal women as less deserving of respect and it is racist hierarchies that devalues their beauty & excellence Shame on you

By the way
@Trevornoah you've actually spoken over Dr@AnitaHeiss in this non-apology tweet to address an Aboriginal man. https://twitter.com/Trevornoah/status/1021088885198196738?s=19 … Dr Heiss wrote an important book on the racism of our country. Read it & get educated before you come here https://www.penguin.com.au/books/am-i-black-enough-for-you-9781742751924 …Dr Zuleyka Zevallos added,
Trevor NoahVerified account @TrevornoahReplying to @AnitaHeiss@joewilliams_tew you're right. After visiting Australia's Bunjilaka museum and learning about aboriginal history first hand I vowed never to make a joke like that again. And I haven't. I'll make sure the clip from 2013 is not promoted in any way.2 replies 5 retweets 25 likesShow this thread -
Full respect to Joe Williams, but
@Trevornoah you don't bypass Aboriginal women in response to being exposed for racist sexism towards Aboriginal women. Australia has *just* celebrated#BecauseOfHerWeCan a commemoration of Indigenous women's leadership https://www.naidoc.org.au/get-involved/2018-theme …1 reply 7 retweets 20 likesShow this thread -

The myopic view of race - claims to champion hybridity of Black people in Europe as a South African man but can't google for two seconds about Blackness in AUS. Yet pushed out that 'joke' with the same vile hatred non-Black, non-Indigenous people instantly recognise & adore.Gross

The bits that get me are the non-apology and the response to a black man as if black women are silent. It’s all incredibly telling and disappointing
