Screeching halt

Something that happens when a person with dark skin goes to a place where it’s mostly white people
If I go there, everything will come to a screeching halt. Every car will stop. Every plane will stop. Every person on a bike and skate board and every person walking down the street will all stop. And they’ll all just stare at me like O_O

screeneighbor

Being the contraction "the amount of screen time my neighbors have", this slang term refers to the phenomenon where statistically, it's highly probable for a person born and raied Indonesia to have his neighbors having much more screen time compared to said person. It's becuase Indonesia houses 270 millions of inhabitants with the average screen time of 6.05 hours per day — the highest in the world.

distance screeching

A feeling when conditions from the past are haunting us and still make noises in our heads, although they seem to be distant. Can apply to historical conditions. Past events influence today’s minds and actions. E.g. our own past, as well as societal, institutional pasts inevitably shape theories and how we look at them. What we teach and learn today is intertwined with our past. Echoes reproduce power structures and reach into the present. The original sound can deform, how it is heard from a distance changes (e.g. become shriller). Although today many look on colonialism more critically, it still shapes institutions, worldviews, actions. It is visible in the books resting in our libraries, in the accessibility of institutions (Decolonising Knowledge: What Is Decolonisation? | Rolando Vázquez Melken 5:24), how history is told by western museums. We must recognize and draw attention to this screeching (e.g. as one can see in the actions Mwazulu Diyabanza does in Museums (Gimlet)). We need to question who owns, who tells stories, defines, has power, whose voices are being heard? To decolonize we must recognize that power structures are still active. We must question the sounds from the past without denying they exist, but by reshaping how we perceive them and making sure they are not repeated, by making sure they are not echoes.

“I still have a distance screeching.”

“I think you got distance screeching.”

“These theories are distance screeched. *”

*However, colonial power structures should be labeled as such as clear as possible. The proposed term should be seen more as an additional visualization.
