Welcome to my channel.
Today I'll discuss the importance of intersectionality, and why it's important. i will also share some pointers on avoiding radicalization.
I'm your neighborhood whimsical neurodivergent EBNY.

Thank you for this breakdown - watched the whole video. Great tips!!
Omg i feel too seen rn 😭 im a queer white woman and you are 100% correct on that read. Also from a self-hating baptist household! I struggle with a lot of internalized sexism, homophobia, racism as that was embedded in the family culture... not to mention the generational trauma lol. I have said some S T U P I D shit in my life trying to prove that i wasnt like my family lol... or to make myself feel more at ease when i didnt understand that it came at cost to others. I didnt realize that things like respectability politics, denegrating other queer or marginalized experiences to make my own feel more legitimate, didnt accomplish that goal and only isolated me from diversity and love that i actually needed! Not only that, but i was isolating others from the love i could give if only i could set aside my own bullshit long enough lol.
The reality i came to realize in early adulthood is that being white at least provided some layer between me and the meat grinder that is Other People At Scale, but being neurodivergent and queer and poor made me more exposed. And it would be disingenuous of me to assign pride on myself for the privileges afforded to me by whiteness. I dont know how to be a good person or an ally or anything else really but at least i know better than to stop analyzing at the first "satisfactory" answer, to be comfortable with challenging myself and being challenged. Thanks for ur video ❤
It can be difficult to get out of that mentality, but everything is up from there. Growth is a journey, I'm happy you're in a better place!
