#KKK & #altright leave rallies & go back to work.
They perpetuate #racism

Their supporters sustain #racism

Cantwell on Sat: "We're not non-violent, we'll kill these people.

Today: "WE TRIED TO BE PEACEFUL"

Peace and white supremacy are antonyms

When you start deciding which kinds of assaults matter, or rather deciding that most don't, the agenda is clear.

But I think @ProfWins and I can agree that privileged activists should go out of their comfort zones to advocate, at least feel inclined to.

[Sam Humbel @SamH_SOCY498]

I just think that considering activism on a scale of best to worst takes away from the common goals of the activism, and separates activists

[Sam Humbel @SamH_SOCY498]

Although to an extent I think there is justification in @ProfWins idea that activism led by the privileged shouldnt be far removed from risk

[Sam Humbel @SamH_SOCY498]

Even at the bare minimum, to advocate for the disenfranchised is better than to be silent, even if it means just sporting a safety pin,

[Sam Humbel @SamH_SOCY498]

I think Dr. Collins was frustrated by the idea that some activism is getting criticized in its methods when the end goal is the same.

[Sam Humbel @SamH_SOCY498]

Where is the progress in telling some people their activism is better or worse than others? If you're an activist, you share common goals

[Sam Humbel @SamH_SOCY498]

That things have to be categorized by how effective they are in a lens... especially when the subjects are intended positively...

[Sam Humbel @SamH_SOCY498]

I think a lot of Dr. Collins' frustration today stemmed from this idea that everything needs to be ordered in a hierarchy...

"Silence is actually an endorsement of the status quo" - Dr. Collins 👏🏼
