ethnic on the mic
what is your ethnicity?
“white”
is not an ethnicity
it is a social construct
that means “not a slave”
meant to bring indentured servitude
back into the liberty of white supremacy
caucasian is a made up fairy tale
how can I trust whiteness
when it cares only about not having
anything to do with slavery ?
it thinks it can stop the dialogue
the freedom fight
simply by declaring it is white
that is insane and dissociative
because a very thin layer of reflection
covers everything
and you give it the depth
that you think it should have
saying you are white has no depth
has no soul
has no heritage
no lineage
just the desperation of distancing
oneself from the devastation
genocidal process that it has demanded
no one in the world
other than Americans
can smile and say they are white
then expect silence and acceptance
because only in America were people
forced to be on the white team
and brainwashed to think being white
is an ethnicity
like french
Dutch
German
Swedish
Uneducated nonsense
unacceptable
