"History shows that racism never disappeared from public life. Rather, it assumed different shapes, some of which are harder to discern than others"
Good from Lars Cornelisson on the long history of racism in the UK.

“Black Exodus Rising”
by Afua Hirsch with Sam Bright on Substack
“Lisbon. Accra. Kingston. Dubai. Cape Town. These are the places that Black British people I have spoken to in recent weeks are investigating as viable alternatives. Not for holidays. Not for short trips. Not for nomad working, Passport Bro hook-ups, or sabbaticals. But to live – relocating work, home & family”

“Sorry, White Nationalists - Europeans were Black until the Rise of Rome, and Rome was Multiracial”
by Juan Cole in Savage Minds on Substack
“Whiteness and Westernness are such fragile ideas that they break down rapidly when subjected to the historian’s gaze. They are a fragile reed on which to base the politics of 350 million diverse Americans, all of them ultimately descended from black people”

ICE hasn't gone after 1000s of “white” undocumented immigrants, only those coded “brown” or “black."
Ie, "Stephen Miller’s project is a racialist one, not purely about immigration or undocumented immigration."
One of the symbols of whiteness in the US is Europeanness. But Hitler said Italians weren't white. He initially rebuffed Mussolini, preferring to ally with Britain if possible.

"Europeans were Black until the Rise of Rome & Rome was Multiracial"
A French Nazi invented the "Great Replacement theory" & said all Americans were 'Negroes'.
Ben Franklin said the English, alone, were white; Swedes were 'tawny', Germans were 'swarthy'.
'Whiteness' was Protestant, middle-to-upper class, with N. European origins.
'Whiteness' in America "was always mostly about class, religion & unfree antecedents rather than skin color."

These fascists are in a miniscule minority, so they know that dictatorship, alone, can save their privilege.
We the people could defeat them by withdrawing our $, clicks & votes.
Most are also likely psychopaths, so they can't stop themselves.
Their's has been a 50-yr project. Not much time left.

Again, I finished "Drystone: A Life Rebuilt" by Kristie De Garis @kristiedegaris. In this inspiring memoir, she rebuilds her life like she rebuilds a wall as a dry-stone waller: each stone carefully placed. Heartbreaking yet courageous, her sincerity makes the book both painful and hopeful.
None of us are too broken to begin again. Rebuilding is possible, even late in life. Sometimes the most radical act is simply telling the truth about who we are.
Earlier, from Michelle Pitcher: “In America, this risk [of wrongful conviction] is not only a defining feature of the modern death penalty, but it also results in the disproportionate conviction and execution of innocent Black people.” https://www.texasobserver.org/aclu-report-death-penalty-exonerations/

we have a real social issue with people only being willing to point out an issue and demand enforcement when the consequences are limited to the little person
but the fucking instant the status quo is threatened by the crimes of those in power and their lackeys, everybody is doing heil hitler salutes to a uniform.
fuck that
the crime is the crime because of the act.
'Net migration is plummeting. Why can’t Labour say so?' asks a Grauniad columnist.
Strange that the lengthy response contains no mention of #Reform or #racism.

The US-led Civil-Military Coordination Center, the new command hub for Gaza, is in Israel, not in Gaza.
There, officials from dozens of countries are housed in an Israeli settlement built on the ruins of a Palestinian village.
The CMCC's surveillance & control programs are being built in collaboration with Israel turning "the promise of peace into yet another instrument of control."
