Saw someone (on a different hellsite) say in reference to kopmala kopmala-ing: "this is what you get when you have identity politics without intersectionality or class consciousness" and I really want folk to maybe consider not using words they don't fucking know.

Identity politics, intersectionality, and a myriad of other terms have been dragged through the mud and completely divorced from their black (feminist) origins because people who haven't done the work of understanding (because they feel entitled to help themselves to use black people's and specifically bw's intellectual production) use these words however way they see fit, muddling the original intent + meaning of these words.

I'm sick of it!!! Words mean things.

"Imposter syndrome" is such a scam because many of the ones who fit the bill as non-imposters often make some of the most milquetoast comments in seminars and what they do say that's worth a damn is quite frequently a regurgitation of what an alleged imposter has already said. Many times repeating something that's just been said, in my experience.

How can I be an imposter if you are using my words? I'm not the first to say this: the term/concept needs to be retooled.

(Context: I'm talking about academia and being a grad student but the concept applies elsewhere including in this digital space 🙃)

I have had so many conversations with women of color who talk about times they've made a point in class that is ignored or dismissed only for someone from a more privileged background (often white, often male) to say the same thing minutes later and recieve positive attention. This is only one example, but it really highlights the point I'm trying to make.

Seems like every 5 years white americans have to be reminded that banjos came from Africa.

I want freedom for all indigenous peoples. I want thriving, not surviving for all indigenous peoples. I want a safe return to home. I want a home to return to. I want healing for mothers, grandmothers, and the land.

Representation still matters though, bc look how unsettled the racists are with their asinine "go woke go broke" mantra But like just like voting, it's the bare minimum.

thiswomanswerk,
@thiswomanswerk@blacktwitter.io avatar

(Also I hate to center white reactions when what is more important is that the newly more diverse representation means a lot to so many children and adults but the crackers are so fucking loud with their hatred of black people.)

The whites are really in a tizzy about lift every voice and sing being sung at the big sport game. It would be funny if it weren't pathetic

@thiswomanswerk@blacktwitter.io avatar

I've never cared about football and I especially won't be watching this year bc indigenous folks have been telling us how harmful the kc mascot is for YEARS now ahem but it's truly hilarious (in a bad way) to see the petty shit that white people work themselves up over. Y'all really wish yall were oppressed

thiswomanswerk,
@thiswomanswerk@blacktwitter.io avatar

First of all it's lift EVERY voice and sing. So no one is left out. Your shitty natl anthem was written by a slavery-supporting, jingoistic weirdo--it's an upgrade, sweetie

Representational politics are meh and ineffective for long-term material change, but they sure do get the crackers crackalackin.

One lady was like "the founding fathers are turning over in their grave."

Ma'am? Over football? See also: let the slave-owning rapey sonsabitches turn. I hope the bitches flip
