My problem is giving space to ideas that promote racism, sexism and bigotry..
I find when people are denying things that are very public displays of such behavior,
there is not much to talk about. It is only feeding their egos and leads nowhere's good.
I have my own bottom line: racism is a white problem and do deny that it exists is just
something I won't give on. Same goes for sexism. These are power relationships created
by men, white men specifically, to ensure the power and control and wealth for themselves.
The only other legitimate conversation after that is maybe how it works structurally to sustain
itself and how it impact individuals so they keep perpetuating such vicious systems. And then,
perhaps, how can it be changed. But when someone flat out denies what a flagrant racist
says and does in public, over and over again? I am done. giving them any space.
