IRL is just as wild too. Def had a 'mentor' say I would get lots of interviews when I was on the entry level market because 'you're Black and a woman.' Since people show up on interviews for jobs, like I don't know about all that other stuff, but did you notice my race + gender?

'When you get these jobs that you have been so brilliantly trained for, just remember that your real job is that if you are free, you need to free somebody else. If you have some power, then your job is to empower somebody else.' -Toni Morrison

I was prompted to write Rendering Whiteness Visible, because the language we use is consequential. The arguments I make regarding the need to capitalize White go beyond AJIL and AJIL Unbound practices. The preprint of my commentary is up open access at SSRN: ssrn.com/abstract=47417ā€¦.

Speaking on how the ICC's impact furthers: racial subordination,forced forgetting, carceral approaches and occupies space in our imaginations, exacerbates culture of impunity + tensions b/w the local + int'l. The ICC's limited expressive power distorts truth + historical record.
