“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.

For the bIogging carnival, I spoke with Ken Fero, filmmaker whose film, Injustice, the police tried to ban back in 2001.  Now, in 2020, these issues still haunt us.  Go here to listen to our conversation. 

Ceri Buckmaster read from her blog post, "A Letter on the Anniversary of the Shooting of Cherry Groce".  Cherry Groce's shooting has parallels with the killing of Breonna Taylor earlier this year. 

 

So what's haunting YOU?
