Can you be "woke" and date white people?

I'm aware of that, what I find absolutely mind blowing is that people think this line of thinking will produce change. (I don't mean this as an insult, more so just my thoughts)

People are very sensitive for the most part when it comes to pointing out situations or systems they benefit from, and for people who aren't aware or "woke" to their privileges it can feel like an attack on their very being. Which is why this line of logic doesn't work at changing minds, it usually puts the privileged group on the defensive (some racist, others not) and in turn makes it counter productive to achieving change for the oppressed group, since you as the oppressed need the oppressor to change and without allies from the other group your movement gets no where in the long run.

That line of thinking while logical from an again "black and white" p.o.v seems reasonable but from a real world p.o.v it's a self inflicted gunshot, it leaves no room for political savvy, it goes straight for the jugular and that just doesn't have a great track record in terms of enacting change.

Ok. We don't need to get into a conversation if you disagree with what I am saying based on the fact that I am Rasta. I will no longer address you in this thread.

Nothing, I just noticed they typically share: "there's only one race, the human race" sentiment

And there's no point in debating that

Sorry but I have to clarify what you said we believe that all races are part of the bigger race which is the human race not that there is only one race. I hope you didn't put me on ignore because there is a big difference between the two

This is such a basic form of thinking


ALL white people are racist. Bc ALL white ppl benefit from the whitenormative values that ground institionalized racism. Intent is moot.

Yes......... Being social aware does not start or end with whom you are fucking. Malcolm X was half breed white woman chaser at first. Fredrick Douglas was married to a white woman does that take away what he done for his people?

BTW "woke' is a dumb term
