#whitefragility — Public Fediverse posts

When the murderer of an #Indigenous person is characterized as the victim, this #Conservative's rant clearly falls into the #whiteFragility or #whiteSupremacist category. https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/canada/2026/05/21/manitoba-politician-calls-saskatchewan-farmer-who-killed-colten-boushie-a-victim?briefing_id=602309756&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-9w5w9Kfqqz0qvY74sAiLt3u-mT_nsBt00NaiWvgiULxr3O3OFmWQaZ2hltFg9HcUJY67vTFyeTXZZXNiadyA6EGYdf7w&_hsmi=16085228

First Worldism—“the loss of the prerogative, only and always, to be the one who transgresses the sovereign boundaries of other states, but never to be in the position of having one’s own boundaries transgressed.”
—Judith Butler, J. (2009). ‘Violence, mourning, politics’, in Harding, J. and Pribram, D. eds., Emotions: A Cultural Studies Reader. London: Routledge, pp. 387–402.

Today is the anniversary of the victory of a militant struggle in France.
White men of left and right coordinated to push young brown and black women back to their rightful place: subaltern.

October 2003: Lycée Henri Wallon in Aubervilliers expelled two sisters for wearing headscarves. A deafening political and media controversy ensued. The polemic obtained a law enacted on 15 March 2004, that banned girls wearing headscarves from schools.

Nathalie (in 2015): "I have children to feed and I’m looking for work, so I’m taking off my headscarf. I have no choice. No choice."
