Please stop saying: "I know I got White privilege." Rather, you live in a system (ideologies & structures) that disproportionately benefits people who are racialized as White.

“Orlando had become a woman… Their change of sex, though it altered their future, did nothing whatever to alter their identity… but in future we must, for convention’s sake, say ‘her’ for ‘his’ and ‘she’ for ‘he’.” Virginia Woolf discussing pronouns in 1928.

#Haiti was the first country in the world to permanently abolish slavery & the slave trade. Haitians dealt a decisive blow to the entire system of slavery. Our ancestors became a threat to the existing world order. Haitian history is world history. Happy Haitian Heritage Month!🇭🇹

The assumption that racism is an individual character flaw and race is merely identity/cultural groups reflects the epistemology of racial ignorance--in the US and globally.
