But I didn’t see photographs of white people so full of hatred and violence.
I keep thinking that these are the latest in a long line of violehnt white supremacists. And how Whiteness erases its traces to seem seamless.
I only saw these photos of segregationists from the Civil Rights Movement era as an adult. https://t.co/j2YdXSBpXv

Instead media relentlessly peddled images of Black and brown men engaged in violence

Despite all the evidence, White cops killing Black and brown civilians are seen as anomalies, White terrorists as lone wolves/mentally ill
And the most important part for me is not the press photos. These invariably focus on the most eye-catching, attention grabbing visuals.
