I must, after all, practice what I preach. And I cannot stand behind on the dismantling of an aspect of institutional oppression, racism, while seeing sexism, lgbt phobia, etc., running about unchecked and defended. It's hypocritical and cowardly. So I stand. I cannot be a part of [livejournal.com profile] foc_u, much as I admire its aims.Intersectionality. All oppressions must be fought, or none of us will be free. And yes, as dharma_slut points out, private journals count. WTF? Race fail has been raging for the most part in private journals, for gods sake. Yes, shit gets said when people are angry. But that don't mean you get a pass. You CAN be angry without using fucked up slurs to show it. Each of us has got our issues and our blind spots. Gotta work on them. Gotta be able to see our shit and apologize and learn from it. Like that New Testament story goes, you know the one about motes and beams in our neighbour's eyes and ours...
