Hrotsvitha’s mocking of black people within the scene where Dulcius mistakes pots and pans for the 3 sisters and proceeds to have sex with them, which causes him to be covered with black sout.

Paper In Sobantu Mzwakali’s Black People Can’t Be Racist, he argues why and how a black person cannot be racist due to many reasons. One reason is that they have never had the proper instruments and the capability to demonstrate racial oppression. He also mentions how white people have “white privilege,” a term used to describe the societal benefit of identifying as a white individual.

officers are physically abusing and killing black people every day. Black communities are dissociating themselves from law enforcement because they view them as the enemy. Additionally, crime reporting numbers have been down in black neighborhoods after a series of high profile cases of police misconduct against black men have been surfacing in the news.

consciousness is a way that people behave differently in front of different groups of people. Web dubois was responsible for naming this concept in his book, The Souls of Black People. Many people worldwide do this act of double consciousness. It is a way of coping sometimes, also a way to get through certain situations.
