We're living in a golden age of awareness about white supremacy. You can't turn on your TV without hearing the phrase applied to the news, whether it's the explanation for Glenn Youngkin's victory in Virginia or Kyle Rittenhouse's actions in Kenosha. But more often than not, white progressives' newfound obsession with opposing white supremacy isn't helping. It's coming at Black people's expense.
Reverend Jerry McAfee of New Salem Church in Minneapolis has described white supremacy as a situation where white people are defining your reality and then forcing you to live under that definition. And sadly, that's what we're seeing now over and over: White folks on the Left defining a reality for us that doesn't comport with how we as Black people see things, then demanding we identify with it.

White LEFTIST PROGRESSIVE elites....
Fixed.
It may be dated, but the fact that he only realized that in 2021 is astonishing. “... white people are defining your reality and then forcing you to live under that definition.” I’m going to go out on a limb and say this was happening well before 2021.
“...how we as Black people see things...”

My black next-door neighbor would disagree with this.
He says nobody speaks for him or tells him how he should think.
With white wives.
There is an amazing YouTube clip of a white female college professor calling Candace Owens a racist because Candace was not accepting the Progressive narrative. Candace let her have it.
well done
Or a genius smart black couple, and a buffoonish white one.
The idiot Left has used the term “racist” so much that it basically lost it’s sting.
Oh no....You noticed.
That may be, but in practice, people lose their jobs due to false accusations of “racism.”
Hate to say it but I agree... Can’t we stop with the racial crap? If not, then make the NFL, NBA, and Baseball meet exact quota’s on the proportional makeup of America.... Enough of this.
We are completely helpless. Others define reality and leave us with no choice but to live in that reality. And we must do so because we cannot create our own reality.
And sadly, that's what we're seeing now over and over: White folks on the Left defining a reality for us that doesn't comport with how we as Black people see things, then demanding we identify with it.
And we must identify with it (whatever that means) because we are helpless.
Oh, woe is us!
We know that people groups can be isolated and spiritually molded. We’ve known that for thousands of years.
America is polka dotted with info deserts.
When an author capitalizes the B in “black,” and lowercases the W in “white,” he or she has lost all credibility. It is so childish; if such authors had any honor they’d be embarrassed.
The white leftists are going to get eaten by their own revolution hopefully. It’s an interesting article. You don’t see Rittenhouse defended very often! Especially in Newsweek.
Why I no longer own a TV. Complete gaslighting propaganda, all day long.
