“The New Apostolic Reformation” — oh dear.

@cam @chargrille @StillIRise1963 Typically, in the #US fashion of #whiteFlight, it is now a majority-#Black city.

As far as I am concerned the #GOP is the #DogWhistle #eugenics party now. #MoralPanic #WhiteFlight

A new 56-page report shows that the population of Black people in Boston and the Greater Boston area is increasing. (Cue any racist members of the white community in Boston opting for white flight or getting angrier or more violent.) https://bit.ly/3zCSPVD #BlackMastodon #Mastodon #whiteflight #usa #boston

Och i kategoring "Saker vi sagt sedan sjuttiotalet" har vi idag följande: "Segregationen beror alltså inte främst på att individer med utländsk bakgrund vill leva i förorterna, som ofta antyds i opinionstexter om segregation, utan att individer med majoritetssvensk bakgrund vill leva segregerat från åtminstone vissa synliga minoriteter. Det är relativt välbärgade majoritetssvenska hushåll som först ”flyr” (så kallad ”vit flykt”) från områden där personer med utländsk bakgrund flyttar in."

Did Leave It To Beaver feature a single black actor?

Access to clean drinking water has long been considered an essential part of living in modern society. Yet, in many parts of America, people need to boil or purchase drinkable water (e.g., Flint, MI; Jackson, MS; Houston, TX).

This situation is directly linked to the #disinvestment in communities that were impacted by #whiteflight, the #deregulation of the private sector, and the #privatization of the public sector. It disproportionately harms low-income and minority communities and is a systemic byproduct of public and private sector policies that have promoted #EnvironmentalRacism

See for example 👇

Why was it that at the end of Leave It To Beaver, Beaver had a deeper voice than his older brother?

I've been slow to contribute here, still thinking the tweetzone might survive and transform in a mix of better and worse ways... in the struggle for the better towards the good @stephjoke over there... critique of #whiteflight cuz maybe #socialpanic ... noticing Black Twitter going nowhere... more endurance to hostile institutions, perhaps? Also very focused on sustained interaction rather than one-offs or pile-ons. We change the world through consistent intention.

In response to legitimate critiques about academia’s #whiteflight to Mastodon, how are we reflecting on our decision to jump here or add this platform to our repertoire?

Ie #histodons @histodons @histodons - which is a great list - was largely white the last time I checked.

Cishet white people have the least to lose when resisting M*sk and fascism in general. How do we keep supporting more minoritized folks?
