3. What do you mostly think about when you think about being white? You're welcome to add details below.

MY POSITION: such as my privilege; how I benefit from white supremacy culture; my generational wealth; how my family became seen as white; access & opportunities I have; the lack of barrier & conflict I experience getting care, supports, role models, etc.

THE SYSTEM: for example how white supremacy culture works; historic events & trends leading to present day realities; how systemic racism shows up in social institutions & workplaces; red-lining, voter suppression & other racial tactics; overt or covert policing of Brown & Black people; the distortion of truth through educational omissions; etc.

OTHER PEOPLE: including how others are impoverished; how challenging life looks for oppressed people; how many don't have access to health care, adequate housing, rewarding employment, etc.; physical or institutional violence against people of color; the misleading ways media portrays people of color; etc.

MY ROLE: such as how I use, share or leverage power; how my feelings of guilt, shame or fear keep me from taking action; ways I'm moved to help that actually harm; how I'm drawn to study more than action, limiting my effectiveness; the ways me wanting to get things right perpetuates white supremacy culture; etc.
