White researchers: critical race studies is founded on scholarship, activism & practice. Anti-racism requires work (not platitudes or inaction) that meaningfully improves the lives of Indigenous people, Black people & other racial minorities (disabled, LGBTQIA, poor).
Anti-racism starts with critical understanding our relationship to race, power & oppression White people, including academics, sometimes react to anti-racism using subjective impressions of op eds & pop media They want to dismiss or mimick the language without reflection...
Either way, it's confirmation bias stemming from same origins: wanting to distance oneself from racism, either because they don't think racism is an issue, or because they are eager to be seen as 'not racist' A better approach is to understand whiteness, how white culture works
White culture is both ubiquitous & 'invisible' to White people. White experiences, norms & social relations are taken-for-granted, so White people don't see how the benefit from racism.
They have opinions but don't really engage with the texts & experiences that #POC lead
A prime example is how lots of White people have an impression of 'white privilege' without understanding that this is an anti-racism concept inviting White people to recognise concrete examples of how their race does not impede their progress, safety or health outcomes
