      What brutal honesty.My career military father felt the same way.He once said that he would do anything to defend Democracy and defend the constitution and hold those accountable to uphold it's principles.Why? Because he realized the hatred for Blacks has bubbled above and below the surface for centuries in America and that any other type of system would lead to our demise.As far as the psychological aspect,my father took every opportunity to take his 3children to different countries around the world to see how other human beings view each other. What an eye opening experience The Good and the bad.What a humbling experience.He realized that developing a world view experience is one effective remedy for American Blacks to better cope in such a race and class conscious society.I love America.America is my home.My father's wish was for his three children to strive to make it better for all it's citizens.

      Questions are asked to bring out information, allowing the interviewee to expound on something of interest. She certainly has something interesting to say about it, because if you know anything about all of her writing, she strives to eliminate what she calls "the white gaze" in her writing.
      The question was very important to, and central to the writer's intent in her work.

White people by in large don't have these experiences yes they might be aware but back then they weren't trying to relate.

    What she is talking about is my life in the South Bronx, there were no white people in my world. If they did exist they were racist cops, a racist white teacher here and there or some racist Italian Americans. But they were peripheral to my world, which was culturally rich, Caribbean Latino and African American. If I had to write about my childhood it would be a world where the white gaze did not exist. My world was filled with Afro Latino and African American faces, laughter, pain, music, food, culture and love..

      The truth is as black people we have to be very careful around everybody. Jewish, Arabs and even some black people. The level of hatred, audacity and cowardice of those people leave me deeply traumatized. I don't feel hatred like them but a deep sense of disgust, superiority and above all pity.

    No one ever asks white writers about black characters in their books because that also can be misappropriated. Writers write on personal background knowledge.

    I could see how her father could feel that way. If someone has all of the power in a situation and chooses to use that power to hurt someone with no power, that person is weak and pathetic. If you have everything and still oppressing me then how could I respect you? I am experiencing this at work with bullies. They are the superiors but you gang up with other employees to hurt someone who is alone. I can’t respect that work place or group of people.

    She is a beautiful artistic person. Also, don't forget that some black and white people have deep loving friendships and marriages together. When people do meaningful work together, they create community and trust and come overcome strife. I am lucky to have this exact experience.

      Why? Do you know there? Let me tell you. Oppression in America is in the open and you have some great people who have fought and are still working together against prejudice. In most European countries and France, abuses are swept under the rug. I went and are going through the worse traumas: from work, to my personal escape and my own body violated and it's in France. You have no idea what you are talking about. If you are black stay away from Europe outside of England, that's my honest advice.

    Love that she’s not interested in the white gaze. Whiteness is not central to her nor her writing. Love her. She also keeps racism where it belongs, in the hearts and minds of who’re people. They created and it’s their problem. ✌🏾

    Honestly, what does it matter if there not in our community as long as the systematic system of white supremacy is still embedded as normal practice within society. We don't have a chance, that's Institutional racism that leads to discrimination in criminal justice, employment, housing, health care, political power, and education, among other issues.
