Maybe someone should create a web site where we list which EU countries carry out racial profiling and publish the experiences of people who have been racially profiled at EU borders. 🤔

Maybe we can use the fediverse to gather those experiences…

Here, I’ll start:

I was racially profiled by Belgian border police two weeks ago at Brussels Airport.

#EU #europe #humanrights #racism #Belgium #racialProfiling #europeanvalues #ethnicprofiling @European Commission @EU Rights Agency

So Dutch border police have been told by the courts to stop ethnic profiling… Hey, I wonder, can we do Belgium next?

Whaddaya say, @EU_Commission, given you’re headquartered there and all? You down with the racial profiling being carried out at the borders?

Any thoughts, @FRA?

Any local politicians/MEPs want to take this on?

Dutch border police told to stop ethnic profiling

Apparently all it takes is a court order for a European country to not be racist.

Wow! I just opened the twitter post - that site is UGLY - full of #farRight reference to "ordinary indigenous people" - #racism that ordinary people do not indulge in.

Nor do they set fire to police vans or carry hammers to protests......

The rush towards sustainable alternatives to fossil fuels, including electric cars and renewable energy, was creating what Achiume described as “green sacrifice zones” where already marginalized groups were exposed to environmental harms from the extraction of the very minerals needed for green tech

How high-tech, capitalist solutions to the climate crisis just feed racism

UN rapporteur Tendayi Achiume says projects are at the expense of marginalized groups and Indigenous Peoples.

The concept of “race” was invented to provide the logic for slavery. It's scientifically unfounded but still firmly holds ideas of biological diff.& hierarchy that have served to justify exploitation/oppression. It's use even by those who abhor #racism tends to reinforce those ideas. #Ethnicity is a social/cultural characteristic while #race is a biological/physical trait
Should/can the term "race" be replaced or abandoned?

Have you heard of the Wounded Knee Massacre? Yesterday in 1890, government forces committed what is still the worst mass shooting in American history. Attempting to disarm indigenous people, the government killed more than 300 Lakota, most of whom were unarmed. #BlackMastodon #BlackTwitter @BlackMastodon

ASSURING THE LAKOTA THEIR SAFETY, SOLDIERS THEN PROCEEDED TO DISARM THEM OF ANY WEAPONS, TENSION BEGAN TO MOUNT AND A SCUFFLE BROKE OUT BETWEEN A LAKOTA MAN AND A SOLDIER. WITHOUT HESITATION THE MILITARY OPENED FIRE, ILLING OVER 200 MEN, WOMEN, AND CHILDREN IN ONE HOUR. THOSE WHO MANAGED TO ESCAPE THE MASSACRE FLED TO THE SURROUNDING HILLS AND WERE EITHER CAPTURED AND EXECUTED, OR FROZE TO DEATH DURING THE NIGHT. THE U.S. GOVERNMENT REFERRED TO THIS INCIDENT AS A "BATTLE. CLAIMING THE CALVARY RESPONDED IN SELF DEFENSE DESPITE THE FACT THAT THE LAKOTA WERE UNARMED, OUTNUMBERED, AND STARVING. THE 7TH CALVARY WAS GIVEN MEDALS FOR IT'S GENOCIDAL ACTIONS ATWOUNDED KNEE. CLOSE TO 300 INNOCENT PEOPLE WERE MURDERED ON DECENIBER 29TH, 1890 FOR SELFISH AND IGNORANT REASONS CONCERNING IMPERIALISM, GREED, AND THIEVERY. NEVER FORGET.

"Many people are familiar with the #GoodNightWhitePride logo – a silhouette image of an #AntiRacist kicking a #NeoNazi in the head.

But few people know that the image comes from a photo taken at a 1998 counterprotest of a KKK rally in #AnnArbor,#Michigan."

🕸️ 📘 Hi, I'm a scholar* who wrote a book about #FLOSS & #hacking cultures holding "diversity" conversations 🖥️ 🌈

One take-home from that work is that EuroAm #FOSS communities' frameworks for thinking abt #gender inclusion were far more sophisticated than their analysis of positioning wrt #race & Global North-South relations. Sharing bc some may need reading on hegemonic #whiteness in #fediverse : https://press.princeton.edu/books/paperback/9780691192888/hacking-diversity

"Without structural, systemic, deeply ingrained #racism, #Israel would not exist. Furthermore, without this white supremacist attitude, no Israeli #pilot would be able to push the button that releases the #bombs which then burn and rip #Palestinian children in Gaza to shreds. No #sniper would be able to pull the trigger and kill and maim Palestinians. It is an essential part of #Zionist education."

After the images went viral, the volunteer was inundated with xenophobic and sexist messages on social media, which forced her to restrict access to her profiles.
