Colorized Whiteness is the absence of color. It is defined by what it is not. The color white denotes purity, holiness, innocence, etc. (Disney Princess vibes) What a lot people don’t connect when talking about the topic of race is that: What about Color? What is the legal definition of color? COLOR OF TITLE […]

Frankenstein TLDR: Europeans conceptions of Race fuels a lot of the anxieties we see in modern white society as white supremacy is on the way to the hospital and to its death bed. There is a huge problem in modern perceptions that I have noticed. Racism as a concept and the definition of it is […]

Do you care more about the integrity of a classification system that defines you or racist administrative conflation that keeps everything blurred but keeps us arbitrarily unified against the same racism? The integrity of the system to accurately classify various different ethnic groups without broad conflations by reflecting accuracy in one’s social, cultural, national, etc […]

Power is not maintained only through force. It is also maintained through language, classification, redirection, and control. For Black Americans, pressure often operates in two directions at once.

Congruence is what happens when your values, words, and actions move in the same direction. It is being true blue to the game—not performing loyalty, but living it. In Black American life, congruence can mean holding fast to identity, community, memory, and purpose even when the world rewards compromise. It asks whether the person you […]

When I say that certain groups or identities bother me, I do not mean that I dislike people simply because they belong to those groups. What bothers me is how these identities are framed, performed, romanticized, politicized, and folded into larger racial narratives. My frustration is not primarily with individuals.

Not all cats are the same, even though they belong to the same biological family. A house cat, a lion, and a tiger are all felines, but they differ in size, behavior, environment, and instinct. Their shared classification tells us something, but it does not tell us everything. “Cat” can describe both a specific animal […]

Why I Support Immigration Differences make us stronger, and they allow us to benefit from the best of different worlds. When I was in Japan, I saw something very interesting: a group of citizens had organized a cleaning crew to remove litter from the streets. Japan is known for its culture of cleanliness and its […]
