Black people. We are inside a burning house, and white terrorism set the fire. It wants to destroy and annihilate us, and not only are we preventing fellow Black people from escaping the ferocious blaze, we are also using Weapons of WhitenessTM against each other to defame, exclude, and destroy one another. Toxic whiteness is so virulent it will still kill Black people even when the hosts die. We must stop transmitting this terror. In this book, you will learn what the Weapons of Whiteness are, their menacing motives, and how they allow you to weaponize your hierarchical privileges to harm and traumatize Black people. You’ll also learn how to resist the seductive lies of whiteness, how to stop chasing fool’s gold, and how to escape the treacherous cycle of anti-black violence. We are in a violently abusive relationship with whiteness, and this book will share strategies on how to release yourself from the grueling grip of this trauma bond. You will learn how to resist the temptation to weaponize your internalized oppression, and how we can:•Be in community with and love each other even if we dislike one another, so we can live free and die trying. •Do no harm and take no shit while refusing to pick up the master’s tools of terror. •Focus on healing and liberation instead of fighting each other over the puppet master’s fool’s gold. •Set boundaries and act with a spirit of accountability and love to amplify racial justice and Black love. •Agree to disagree without demonizing one another, so we can work toward collective healing and liberation. It’s time to heal from and stop stoking the fire of toxic whiteness. You can do all these things. We can do all these things. And we must. We must live free and die trying. This is our collective work to do with accountability and love, so let’s get busy and get to work until we take our last breath.
