“It is not our fault, but we must accept responsibility.” I couldn’t control how I was socialized or what racist beliefs I unconsciously absorbed in my youth. It is not our fault that we learned and believed the underlying racist messages that permeate our society, but we now must take responsibility for what we learned, honestly own and interrogate all that we were taught, and then commit to a daily practice of eradicating these racist beliefs and actions from our lives.
I mean... at what point do u say no it is their fault for actively perpetuating what they learned .... like this is a little too absolve y
