None For Me, Thanks
Muzzles are for dogs and slaves. I am a free human being. COVID-19
White people find it extremely difficult to express their feelings about harm without using Black people. We are used as the props, background characters and stage whenever they try to describe dehumanization.
White people love to talk about antiBlackness in past tense. They do this so they can talk about its children in the present without actually caring about Black people. In the images above Black women are used as props and aren't even pictured. This continues in these slides where another lily white face is used to represent the effects of transphobia.White faces for transphobia
White faces for transphobia
The beliefs that Black people deserve harm because we are resilient or stronger or more capable of overcoming such adversities is antiBlackness. The quick passover of slavery to make a point is antiBlackness. The constant portrayal of transphobia with White faces is antiBlackness. The desire to portray antiBlack behavior as something of the past is antiBlackness.
White emotional immaturity
White people are constantly showing their emotional immaturity when it comes to antiBlackness. This is why we're seeing so many examples of the "two sides of the same coin." It's screams "none for me, thanks but more for them of course."
