‘Beyond court reform, Americans have to reacquaint themselves with constitutional thinking — with the idea that we, the people, make constitutional meaning. To the extent that the Supreme Court claims broad authority to say what our constitution means, it is in large part because we have given this authority to the justices through our indifference.’

We don’t have to tell you how much, where, or why we get paid.
Pocket watching Black women is a classic anti-Black tactic that needs to end.

If you’re serious about developing a consistent, DEMONSTRATED antiracist practice, you must name this behavior, disrupt it, and commit to never reenforcing it.

Somehow I missed this when the story broke a few weeks ago: Atomwaffen Division co-founder Brandon Russell has been given a 20-year prison sentence for plotting to attack the Baltimore power grid with his girlfriend (h/t @MusiqueNow). He had been found guilty back in February, but sentencing was only earlier this month.

They picked Baltimore in part because the girlfriend, Sarah Beth Clendaniel, also a neo-nazi, was from the area, but mostly because it's a city with a large Black population. Clendaniel recently got an 18-year sentence for her part in the plot.

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, #sugarstrike

The ›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.
