[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes. Positive models of whiteness! Like white people who do not center themselves in every discussion about the effects of structural racism and active white supremacy. They’re out there.

are you trying to say that you think the linked article is "centering" and shouldn't have been published? [/quote]

No, I’m saying that the OP’s insistence that kids can’t be inoculated against becoming white supremacists without “positive white role models” is silly...and racist.

The article is fine.[/quote]

why is that silly? We’re talking about kids. Do you really think that teaching kids whiteness is negative is a good way to raise kids who are anti-racist? I don’t think you’ve thought this through. [/quote]

I think you’re white. [/quote]

yes, obviously? The article and this post are about how to raise non-racist white boys. [/quote]

If you’re conceding that it is “obvious” that you are white by virtue of you announcing that positive white role models are necessary and telling someone you don’t know that you “don’t think they’ve thought this through”—which is what gave it away—well, then you see the problem. Maybe.[/quote]

It says in article AND MY OP that I am white. The topic is raising a white son to be anti-racist. [/quote]
