In essence, although it is possible for someone white to be disliked or mistrusted on the basis of their skin color, no white person has ever been in the position of having their entire life ruined, or taken away because someone didn’t like skin color!
No white person has ever been arrested or killed by a PoC because they looked “suspicious”. No white personal has ever been hunted down and killed by a group of black people on suspicion of a crime! What happened to Ahmaud Arbury doesn’t happen to white people! There are no laws being created to keep white people from wearing their hair the way it grows out of their head. It is white people who are in charge of running the industries and systems that land us in prison for things they make money off of. So no, I don’t care for most white peoples definition of racism as that almost always serves their ego! And just another way for them to say it’s okay because other people are doing it!
