"We continually witness the power of white solidarity across class, law enforcement, and personal boundaries—even if the actors are complete strangers—in support of the collective decimation of Black people." @CurlyProfessor w/ @UNC_Press inquest.org/united-in-hate/

"All these white people did not know each other personally, but they all knew what team they were on, and they all knew they were white, together, and that we were not." @CurlyProfessor on how racist solidarity works as a form of policing. inquest.org/united-in-hate/

United in Hate - Brittany Friedman - Inquest

White civilians often spontaneously cooperate in acts of racial hatred. It’s a web of racist solidarity that Black people know all too well.

Replying to @TheOracleReadsU
Sometimes healing looks like wild joy, not quiet pain. Go live. Get messy. Laugh loud. Make memories that rewrite the story. Healing can happen in freedom too.
