I am grateful for @amiera_tales & @noorafiraq, Layla F. Saad's "Me and White Supremacy", @_TheOtherBox , @ARDTakeAction for opportunities to broaden my perspective. We're all in a White Supremacy and sometimes get it wrong BUT we must keep working to be better 2/2

Last night our co-founder @Leyyax attended a Diwali celebration hosted by @cntraveller with author @poornabell at @TheSavoyLondon. The event was a testament to what happens when South Asian women are placed in a position of leadership: Representation. #Representationmatters (1/4)

It was an honour to have Other Box represented in a room with so many smart & beautiful people. To see Diwali celebrated via a live event hosted by a luxury travel magazine... (3/4)

...which has traditionally always focussed on white spaces, normalises Diwali as part of the cultural landscape because the world is already diverse. (4/4) #CondeNastTraveller #Diwali #LondonEvents #TheOtherBox

DIVERSITY DICTIONARY: WHITE-PASSING. When a person of the global majority (Black, indigenous or person of colour) is mistaken for being white. This could be by accident, based on assumption by others, or it may be a deliberate choice (more on that below) #diversitydictionary

It’s important not to over-simplify the complexities of passing as white. White-passing privilege is not the same as white privilege. This is explored in films like Passing (@Netflix adaptation of 1929 novel by Nella Larsen) and novels like The Vanishing Half by @britrbennett

White-passing privilege only exists because a white-supr*macist system puts whiteness at the centre of power, while people of the global majority, particularly in the West, are marginalised and minoritised. #DiversityDictionary #WhitePassing #WhitePassingPrivilege
