Name one group of oppressed people who were able to end mass genocide and institutional systemic oppression by being nice.

would like to point out that this image has the intentions of showcasing the newest additions to the princess line up, so all the older princesses of course aren’t the center of attention.
of course, the placement of certain princesses could be better, but also consider this was probably purely unintentional. or in better words, not a conscious thing.
oh believe me, it is completely possible for racism to be subconscious.
I think it’s fairly obvious that the racial problems would be ammeliorated if they HAD arranged by sequence. That means Mulan would be in front of Snow White- Rapunzel and Jasmine would be in front of Sleeping Beauty AND Ariel- and Tiana would make her way to the front, past Cinderella and Belle.
I mean honestly it’s sort of laughable to look at this and decide that it’s arranged to display newer in the front, and older in the back. It’s actually only relevant to the frontmost two characters and no one else. So might want to come up with a better reason to justify racialized placement if you are really dead set against calling it out, since it’s harmful whether or not it’s “intentional.”
Especially since that’s really a consciousness in and of itself. People who care about this stuff consult others and listen to what they say. Very easily, anyone with an iota of understanding of what usual critiques against the princesses are, would have noticed that.
unintentional my ass. Shouldn’t all of the new ones be front and center, and old guard back right and back left? Don’t look that way..I see mighty white all front and center.
Yep, & if we’re going by newest that would mean Tiana standing next to Merida or Rapunzel. Instead she’s all the way in the back.
I fixed it!
There. That’s what it would look like if this was actually a case of chronological placement.

I want to make a long post about how Paris Is Burning changed my life last summer and how much I hate how white kids turn into nothing more than LET’S A HAVE A KIKI like no, Paris Is Burning was so much more. It talked about race, ball culture, socioeconomics, trans* people, gender expression, being marginalizing being the country at large, etc etc.
So when white gay kids are like OMGGGGGGGGGGG THROWIN’ SHADE AT YOU OMFGGGGGGGGGGGGGG i want to throw the fuck up.
not here for that at all.

Way to be a radical, Cathy. You got your mob of bigots to cause hardship for a SINGLE MOTHER. Good job looking out for all the women.
Fucking asshole.
Oh, and they’re still receiving threats over the phone and on social media. All for leaving a voicemail saying “you suck”
