When did I, a Black woman become the Enemy

Divide and conquer still livin large. I refuse to allow willie lynch to define me. The "Lynch" letters use internalized racism and sexism to keep us diss-empowered. It is a way to control us, to get us to become our own perpetrators, but is not who we are. The willie lynch letters uses sexism to divide us as a race, and take the focus off the true system of oppression that controls this us - classism. What is internalized racism? It is what happens when a targeted group begins to believe decades of racist miss-information and miss-behavior about their own racial group. Individually - When I begin to believe my Blackness makes me lazy, Horney, unkept, stupid, dishonest, conniving, dull, loud, lackadaisical and greedy, unlovable. As a group - Internalized oppression is when I began to believe the miss-information about other Black people. When I find myself ashamed of, embarrassed by my people it is most likely my internalized racism/ oppression operating. When I get angry at, criticize, berate, target my people doing something I would not think twice about seeing a non Black person doing - it is internalized racism. My holding my people, my children to a different standard of behavior is my internalized oppression. Internalized oppression is a normal and human reaction to oppression. EVERY target group struggles with not believing the miss-information the dominant culture perpetrates against it. It is a way to make sense out of a illogical system of oppression. But it is not who we are. It's a behavior, it is not our true core or values. Internalized oppression is what keeps the dominant culture in power without them even having to come into contact with the targeted population.
