Bell Hooks Quote
…white supremacy is a much more useful term for understanding the complicity of people of color in upholding and maintaining racial hierarchies that do not involve force (i.e slavery, apartheid) than the term internalized racism- a term most often used to suggest that black people have absorbed negative feelings and attitudes about blackness. The term white supremacy enables us to recognize not only that black people are socialized to embody the values and attitudes of white supremacy, but we can exercise white supremacist control over other black people.
