CW: Baftas / Tourettes / racism: excellent post from Ijeoma Oluo.
In particular about the burden placed on Black people to respond gracefully when racist stuff happens in public - not so much about Tourettes in particular, though a little about that too.
"Every Black person I know has a story of just trying to get through their day when some racist shit pops up. Every Black person I know has to regularly calculate their safety in those moments and figure out their next move. And every Black person I know is punished for whichever way they choose to react. If they are openly angry then they are dangerous, or militant, overreacting, or lacking empathy for the person who has just harmed them. If they react with kindness or a desire to educate then they are forced to carry the emotions of the person who has just harmed them. If they decide to ignore it then they are told by others that it’s obvious by their reaction that this harm is acceptable and it will continue in with gusto.
"These moments happen at work, on the street, in the grocery store. And they apparently also happen to our most celebrated actors onstage in front of an audience of millions. And when it happens, with the cameras rolling, they will have to assess their safety, gather their emotions, and continue on. Customers are waiting."

Consuming Whiteness: Australian Racism and the ›White Sugar‹ Campaign by Stefanie Affeldt
Topics
#australia, #sugar, #whitesupremacy, #antiblackness, #sugarrefining, #sugarplantations, #whiteaustralia, #whiteaustraliapolicy, #genocide, #colonialism, #britishcolonialism, #europeancolonialism, #invadercolonialism, #whitenationalism, #consumerism, #queensland, #blackbirding, #labororganizing, #laboractivism, #sugarstrikeThe ›white Australia policy‹ has so far largely been discussed with regard only to the political-ideological perspective. No account was taken of the central problem of racist societalization, that is the everyday production and reproduction of ›race‹ as a social relation (›doing race‹) which was supported by broad sections of the population.
