The white prison guards

lock up the black souls in white --


imaginations.
Book "Black Bodies, White Gazes: the Continuing Significance of Race" (2008, George Yancy)

"The white gaze discursively snatches the body, distorts it into an immobile, non-human version of itself. It traps black people in white imaginations."

Collection "May the Might"
