Rittenhouse is a product of militarized patriarchy where white boys are raised under toxic racist, imperialist standards- he was essentially given a passport to kill.
He killed. He felt entitled to. How many Rittenhouses are being raised by Amerikkka? #RittenhouseGuiltyAF
@CNN@CNNOriginals@lisaling@ARudnickHLN End the glamorizing of prostitution, which is an exploitative $99 billion industry that profiteers on the coercion and commodification of women. We demand a correction and equal time. #WorldsOldestOPPRESSION https://t.co/Vu4A5GGyj3
@CNNOriginals What the @lisaling segment presented as ‘empowerment’ and ‘agency’ is actually the continued male privilege of sexual access to mostly women and girls’ bodies who are disproportionately young, poor, powerless, and from communities of color. #WorldsOldestOPPRESSION
I can’t believe @CNNOriginals@lisaling and other journalists in 2021 are still repeating this man’s phrase, which has no historical basis. Obviously midwifery, weaving, toolmaking, & gathering were women’s earliest professions. This ‘boys will be boys’ catchphrase needs to die.
*Heart of Darkness was Conrad. They were contemporaries but different racist white man, even though many white folks don’t read that text as racist, it’s hated by many because depicts Africa as….the heart of darkened.
WOW.
The white guy who coined the phrase “prostitution is the oldest profession” also said “Filipinos are half devil and half child.” He wrote women’s sole purpose in life is motherhood too.
His other racist classics: The Jungle Book, Heart of Darkness & The White Man’s Burden.
White supremacist and imperialism’s poet Rudyard Kipling coined the term “Prostitution is the world’s oldest profession” (1909). Reinforcing colonial systems of oppression like the sex trade leads to more exploitation, not liberation. #WorldsOldestOPPRESSION
How does reinforcing colonial systems of oppression lead us to liberation? Spoiler: It doesn't. Get on the right side of history. #WorldsOldestOppression@CNNOriginals
