White people and white culture are in positions of power. It is their foot on peoples’ necks, quite literally.
If every other time I turned on my TV there was a different ethnicity doing this i would call them out, but that isn’t what’s happening and to somehow act like racism within the black community is part of the reason the black community keeps suffering from white racism is just distasteful to me.
I don’t think that’s what you are trying to say but it is certainly adjacent to position and I’ve heard many white folks argue that or similar, but don’t worry its okay because they have “black friends” TM.
