@profkori.bsky.social refers to “know-your-place aggression,” which sure sounds like something else white people don’t want to believe in, underlining its veracity. 2/

But, because people think that violence only comes when you’ve done something wrong, they easily believe the lies about the unworthiness of marginalized groups that never stop being told. If we understood that violence is about constantly sending a message about who belongs and who does not, then we might better understand that violence is about reinforcing an unjustified hierarchy, about insisting that only certain people are legitimate citizens with legitimate success and a legitimate right to belong.
