  • The improper language thing didn’t really make sense to me, maybe because I’ve never considered cursing a racial thing. Cursing profusely is one of the stereotypes for a lot of races who arent brown

    “My people are angry/passionate and curse a lot.” Is the most stereotypical it gets actually


  • Okay, I think you’re fundamentally looking at it the wrong way. You need to stop thinking about Arab/Black culture as on an axis of Civilized or Ghetto. What I’m feeling from the writing is that you feel as if the negative aspects of these cultures are lesser and therefore responsible for, at least partially, the discrimination of them.

    Mentally you process the white versions of these negative aspects, which there are many examples of, as irregular for white people so it’s not a reflection of their culture.

    You need to be able to see things you don’t like about your culture separately from the white supremacist view of it. Anti-blackness has a hand in the discrimination of all black people otherwise there wouldn’t be this weird hierarchy of brown people. So as long as you think this way you’ll be at least partially engaging in it.

    Also, I don’t think you should take this as a criticism on your morals or anything. Every poc has to battle with white supremacy, and most of the time they lose. At least you’re trying to undo it
