Antiracist (7)

RP @theconsciouskid's @nadra.w // “A “one size fits all” mentality toward diversity erases the specific needs of the most vulnerable communities. The reality is that not all “people of color” suffer equally from the effects of institutional racism.

Black women are least likely to be promoted and supported by their managers in the workplace. Police kill unarmed Black people at higher rates than other races, especially Black women. According to the Sentencing Project, Black women represent roughly 14% of the female population of the United States, but 30% of all females incarcerated. Black children are also almost 9 times more likely than white children to have a parent in prison while Latinx children are three times more likely. Research also suggests that Black women are more likely to be publicly objectified, harassed and dehumanized. None of this is to say that the interracial and ethnic solidarity implied by the earnest use of “people of color” isn’t important. - #diversityandinclusion #nashvilleteacher #antiracism #highereducation #blackhistory #ally #teachershare #blackintheivory #whitefragility #changingthenarrative #ushistory #socialstudies #historyteacher #teacherproblems
