You believe in fostering a society where all individuals are treated equally, regardless of their race, and racial discrimination is actively dismantled.
Anti-racism is a political ideology that seeks to confront and challenge racism in all its forms. It is rooted in the belief that all races are equal and that racial discrimination is fundamentally unjust. Anti-racism advocates for policies and actions that promote racial equality and justice, and it opposes any form of racial bias, discrimination, or prejudice.
The history of anti-racism as a political ideology is intertwined with the broader history of human rights and social justice movements. While the term "anti-racism" itself is relatively recent, the principles it emb…

Why do you think some people struggle to understand the concept of 'white privilege' and how would you explain it?
@9KBX8Z23mos3MO
I dont understand it myself because there is no right that a white person has that a person of color doesn't. People of color want things handed to them and choose not to work for it. I
@9KCHVZS3mos3MO
It isn't the fact that they don't have rights white people do, it's the fact that POC people are blatantly ignored, treated differently, and harassed day by day by white people due to racism. Socially, they are seen as less by a lot of people who have white privilege, those people not understanding what privilege they have. They do not want things handed to them, they want equality, and for white people to not have the privilege they do.
They don't want things handed to them they just don't want to have to fight to have what comes easier to white people
@9KCDT893mos3MO
White privilege is being able to not fear for your life when you get pulled over, and to not have to worry about just walking down the street.
@9KCDQZ73mos3MO
We're built on white policies that were made to keep people of color down. America has systemic racist issues and white people are handed more that people of color.
@9KF86WH3mos3MO
Because they have never encountered racism themselves or have seen it first hand. Sometimes we are just ignorant and uneducated. Have them realize that not everyone goes through the same life experiences or is treated the same.
@9KGNQPN3mos3MO
I am white and grew up where I was one of only a handful of white people. I was picked on and beat up because of my skin color. The only people that preach about white privileged are people brainwashed to feel guilty about who they are born as. Any time you pick a skin color to define someone is terrible. People should be ashamed of themselves for singling out anybody’s skin and is disgusting.
@9KGNPDG3mos3MO
Racism against people of colour in America is no longer a problem. Thanks to DEI many people of colour will now have advantage over white people.
@9KGNDWNRepublican3mos3MO
Because people are ignorant and love to accuse someone of their issues. And white privileg seems to be an easy uneducated answer
@9KFKR8BIndependent3mos3MO
lots of white people dont experience discrimination
@9KFRM5K3mos3MO
White privilege is the inherent societal value that is given to white people based on years and years of white supremacy in our country.
@9KJ8JJN3mos3MO
The United States form of Government provides equality for all. Everyone has the same opportunities to succeed.
@9KJ8C97Republican3mos3MO
White privilege is not here anymore. there is more black privilege now because everyone feels bad for what happened in the past.
@hanbohobbitSocialist 3mos3MO
People who don't understand the concept of white privilege are often stuck on financial privilege being the only, or most important, consideration - they don't realize that it's more often about other types of cultural or social privileges vs. ingrained, perpetual biases that have less to do with wealth.
@9KP8RVC2mos2MO
Our society and government both privilege blacks and other minority ethnicities above whites. The notion that whites in this country are "privileged" is absurd.
@9KCLXDQ3mos3MO
I don't believe that white privilege is a thing. White people have been enslaved just like other races have been. (Ottoman Slave Trade) I think that black privilege is more of a thing in this country today, look at how much they can say and do. Black people can say racist things about white people and get away with it, but whites can't do that with black people.
@9KD83SY3mos3MO
Assuming you are a white person living in the USA what lasting effects does the Ottoman Slave Trade have on you? My guess (unless you are from the region your talking about) is basically none. That is not true for black people living in the USA. The same country that enslaved them and didn't give them full equal rights until 70 years ago still has yet to make good on the evil that was done to them. For the years prior to their emancipation and later gaining of civil rights they were effectively held back from building wealth, while the white man was able to get ahead, secure good jobs and build generational wealth. Black people were not afforded this ability and as a result we see a disproportionate number of black people in poverty today compared to white people.
@9KD7SG53mos3MO
That although this is true, that does not mean that the Ottoman Empire only enslaved white people. They had enslaved tons of other ethnic groups and the Ottoman Empire is not the only nation to enslave any race for any reason. Not only that, this alleged concept right after the reference to the Ottoman Slave Trade does not mean you suddenly get the right to say racist things to black people. Hate speech is hate speech, no matter who says it.
Black people have been historically discriminated against in this country. For the longest time in America, white privilege was a huge issue. It may not be so big of an issue anymore, but it still exists and is still an issue here.
There is no systemic abuse towards white people, the government and all its attribute are built around harming Black people
@ISIDEWITH3mos3MO
What's the most effective way you've found to shut down a racially insensitive remark?
@9KLW78L3mos3MO
Everyone is equal, and no one is less than another, just because of their skin color.
@9KPLVTH2mos2MO
Everyone is human. Just because someone is more tanned than another doesn’t make them any less human. We were all conceived the same way therefore we all started from the same beginning. So we should all treat each other fairly.
@9KMQ5WR3mos3MO
not to teach kids the race theory because it is disrespectful to all races
@9KLWLR93mos3MO
Ignore the person who made it. Or to educate the person.
@ISIDEWITH3mos3MO
What's one change you can make in your daily life that could have a positive impact on race relations around you?
@9KJZQWB3mos3MO
Educate myself on racial history and stay open minded to other's experiences.
@9KK2QGL3mos3MO
We can just be humans simple as that no race hate no nothing like that
@9KJZTWB3mos3MO
Try not to judge someone immediately off of their skin color because they could be just as good as you at something or better and they don't have a chance to show it because of judgment
@9KJZDW83mos3MO
Inclusivity or avoiding other ethnic groups. Just overall being a better person.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO

@9H8TYLD6mos6MO
in my opinion, they have free speech, and as long as they aren't hurting anybody or destroying anybody's reputation they are fine
@9H8TZNH6mos6MO
Ignore them and do not interact, I do not want to interact with a racist
@9H8TPJ76mos6MO
Id like to disclude myself from these conversation
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
What is the importance of listening to and amplifying the voices of those who are directly affected by racial discrimination?
@9J5W9XLWomen’s Equality4mos4MO
The importance of amplifying the voices of others is to spread the awareness of the issues in the US, and with that awareness we know what to fix.
@9J5TYTZ4mos4MO
Anti racist is when you are not racist to other peopel thta might not be the sqame color as you.
So that you can understand how they feel and fix it
@ISIDEWITH3mos3MO
In what ways do you think sports and teamwork can help bridge racial divides?
@9KK7R5ZRepublican3mos3MO
They can be more inclusive and not draw attention to the racial and cultural differences.
@9KK7FN33mos3MO
Sports and teamwork can help bridge this by giving fair chances to everyone.
@9KK7BBV3mos3MO
Stop supporting exclusive behavior. Things like BLM, kneeling, LGBTQ, etc should be left off the field. Sports players are paid to play a sport and entertain people. We don’t pay to see or hear their opinions.
