“It’s so important for white folx to transgress these rules around anger”

Check out this blog post from Ceri Buckmaster:  “It’s so important for white folx to transgress these rules around anger”.  

She says:  "It really struck me the importance of white people accessing anger and rage at the injustices that are happening and have happened.

"When white people aren’t accessing anger, it’s left to Black and Indigenous people and people of colour to do this work, which then leaves BIPOC labelled and judged as angry and reactive as a means of control and avoiding the issues".

What do you think?  Do white people need to access their anger about injustice?   Please comment below and please share this with your networks.  Thanks.
