@expectlettuce @teressaformayor Questioning a Black woman's perspective on racial issues not only contributes to the erasure of her experience but is also gaslighty AF.
@teressaformayor Portland is so vastly white, antifascists and self proclaimed anti racists only have their white peers for sounding boards. The baseline is white through and through. And when we have a white baseline, we are sure to find white supremacy at its core.
