Racial Apathy

Racial apathy is a form of emotional neglect toward Black, Indigenous, and people of color rooted in the biased belief that we do not feel pain. When people are viewed as "less human", it becomes easier to neglect their pain.

The way the media view wars, disasters, and viruses in predominantly white areas as more worthy of media coverage than those affecting areas where communities of color reside is a clear sign of racial apathy.

Racial peacekeepers

The preachers, pastors and community leaders who always rush out after a racially charged incident against african-americans to calm people and direct them to forgive or embrace their attackers. These individuals decide to represent all african-americans in the community, but often act hypocritically for their own benefit to establish a national profile and win influence among the african-american community for future church donations. They are noticeably absent when the violence does not have racial overtones.
Oh boy, here come the racial peacekeepers with their ridiculous speeches about Christian forgiveness after the skinhead killed 12 people. I just can't with these guys. Bible ballers, pastor pimps, pastors, preachers, community organizers, religion, church, African-American

Racial Gaslighting

Racial gaslighting is when Black, Indigenous, and people of color confront the ways they have experienced racism, and an individual, group, or institution (such as the media, legal system, or government) tries to make them doubt their experience, often to maintain control, avoid taking accountability, or conduct
normalized racial abuse.
