How White Supremacy Culture Shows up in our Families + Practices for How We Can Dismantle It
“How White Supremacy Culture Shows up in our Families + Practices for How We Can Dismantle It.”
Oct. 18, 2021
This 2021 Mistress Syndrome blog post was inspired by Tema Okun and Kenneth Jones’ work on the tenets of White Supremacy Culture and its antidotes.
Their original document focused on how WSC shows up in workplace settings. Within the White Women’s Group work, we realized how important it is to also consider how these tenets show up within our family systems and inside our homes.
White women in particular are well positioned to embrace and teach practices for dismantling harmful White Supremacy Culture.
(divorcing) White Supremacy Culture.
Since the original iteration, Tema Okun has created a new extraordinary resource which combines art, quotes, and multiple perspectives on WSC’s tenets and antidotes.
The Mistress Syndrome blog post is featured on the Racial Equity Tools website along with an abundance of incredible resources. We highly recommend that you investigate and spend time with the resources that resonate with you!
