    “If I could wave a magic wand and eliminate one term from the lexicon of racism discussion, it would be 鈥渞everse-racism鈥�. It鈥檚 the go-to of every clueless person who can鈥檛 be bothered to take any time to understand anything about history or context. Every time I hear it, my faith in humanity diminishes. Use of that term is the easiest way to tell that someone has no idea what racism actually is. These are the same people who will, in response to a POC鈥檚 complex and nuanced understanding of racism, quote the dictionary definition to us. They can鈥檛 fathom that we know more about our own experiences than the dictionary. 鈥楻everse-racism鈥� is not a thing. Tell your friends.”
    Mia McKenzie, Black Girl Dangerous on Race, Queerness, Class and Gender

    “Merricat, said Connie, would you like a cup of tea?
    Oh no, said Merricat, you鈥檒l poison me.
    Merricat, said Connie, would you like to go to sleep?
    Down in the boneyard ten feet deep!”
    Shirley Jackson, We Have Always Lived in the Castle
