Willing away racism, where do we go from here?
As a critical response to Roxane Gay’s “Remember No One is Coming to Save Us”, thinking complexly about the ideas she presented in regards to racial equality was exciting. When faced with the indifference Whites display at racial violence in her work, I raise the question of who is to defend us if we can not defend ourselves?
“Those who actively contribute to the struggle black people face by continuing to be uneducated, force Black people to perform emotional labor in an effort to defend their existence.”
