“We’re all just different!” How Intersectionality is Being Colonized by White People
I’m working on an introduction speech for a panel I’m moderating tomorrow on intersectionality in the local climate movement, and grounding it in an explanation of what intersectionality is and is not. this write-up is from a white dude, telling white people to quit misusing and diluting the concept to serve white supremacy. a good one to share with the well-intentioned white comrades in your life.
“We’re all just different!” How Intersectionality is Being Colonized by White People
So I haven’t updated in a while and I wrestled with whether I should spill my tea online. Well, I’ve been in the hospital all week. I’m doing much better now, but a bitch has been shook. Still waiting to go home now, but I just wanted to let some of y’all who might consider us friends know what’s going on and know that I’m okay.
So turns out:
Since my hospital stay was so sudden, my insurance didn’t cover some expenses and prescriptions which I had to pay for out-of-pocket. Now, I’m out of food and toiletries so if you all could donate, I would appreciate it. I’m on a strict no-salt, fluid restrictive diet, so I can’t do quick fast food and all my pills require being taken with food so this is as urgent as could be. Even if you can’t donate, please share it to someone who might be able to. Thank you so much.
