Throwback Thursday: 'Not All White People'
In this 2020 episode of Auntie Unfiltered, I discuss the problem with people saying "Not All White People"
Whenever the topic of discussion turns to white people and the bullshit they pull against Black people, there will always be a few white voices that want to disrupt what could be a productive conversation with that old white people spiritual refrain:
“Not all white people.”
I’ve written about and spoken on this topic before. It’s nothing new.
Not all white people is a deflection. It rhymes with “I’ve always been good to you people,” and it is in the verse after “Some of my best friends are Black.”
It’s a defense mechanism that white people use when they feel affronted.
On this episode, I discuss why white people need to stop doing this.
