[Max Macias]

Hi,

I wanted to share my latest blog post with you.


> Embedded #Whiteness: A Legacy of Brutality
> [This is the last installment of a three part series on Whiteness.]
>   Whiteness is a concept that describes the cultural, lingual,
> institutional beliefs, practices and behavior that maintains access to
> power and reinforces power for White people and people of lighter skin
> tones.
> This colonial system was created for and by Europeans for the benefit of
> Europeans. Everything was in relation to the European--this is a hallmark
> of the concept of Whiteness--that everything is judged in relation to
> Whiteness and not something else.
