Not only has a White man come to give me tips on moderating my posts & talks about himself - he says: careful or you will lose your allies!
Hello I am a White Man! I love @ScienceMarchDC & say: "Make the majority aware but don't lose sight of the overall goal...allies" #marginscipic.twitter.com/hlS5TiIvQn

This is racism: White people who think they have "good intentions" (hey I'm not one of those other racists!) but are actually policing race

Irony that I've published an analysis on how fans of
@ScienceMarchDC use the language of "divisiveness" to tell URM how to act.#marginsciThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Supporters of
@ScienceMarchDC want to be seen as "not like Trump." But they benefit from, & maintain, the system that makes Trump possibleThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Whiteness is centred in how White people (esp men) have claimed
@ScienceMarchDC as their space; theirs to define & to defend.#marginsciThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

White "liberal" racist presence in
@ScienceMarchDC is not conspicuous. They simply get to march & say what the march is & isn't.#marginsciThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

White liberal racism comes out in
@ScienceMarchDC as above: "well-intentioned advice" to keep URM (#WOC in this case) in place.#marginsciThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

That is what White "allies" don't like about
#marginsci; that@ScienceMarchDC forcing them to face their racism. "Allyship" identity chaos -
Pretty ironic given that a central idea in science is that it's GOOD to discover & address your biases!
-
Also no one is born a scientist any more than they are born an ally. Both are learned & require practice.

To read scientific post by a
#WOC that cites science showing diversity issues with@ScienceMarchDC & still defend marginalisation#marginsciThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

That's White privilege: even when enforcing racial oppression, "allies" still feel exempt from racism b/c "Trump"

That White privilege knapsack is the reason why
@ScienceMarchDC took so long to act & why so many resist diversity still.#marginsciThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

The invisible knapsack of Whiteness stays with you in classroom, lab, boardroom, the street, & in your
#marginsci comments.@ScienceMarchDCThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Lastly: this White man dares to chastise a
#WOC for having closed off comments on a previous post which was inundated with racism...Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

...Proceeds to comment on previous post & says "they accomplished their goal." White man entitlement: telling
#WOC how to fight racism.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Then talks about his "controversial" posts as if this is comparable to
#WOC talking about experience of racism. White privilege again.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

This happens a lot: self-appointed White "allies" push into racism discussion, erasing race & then talk about themselves. <<Not allyship

That's the general problem with
@ScienceMarchDC, science & society in general: White "allies" who refuse to grapple with race.#marginsciThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Sometimes White people want to show their "allyship" by saying "this happened to me too.." as if any other comparison is the same as racism.
