"The racial logics of white supremacy in the United States discriminates against Arab and South Asian U.S. Americans while simultaneously incentivizing the adoption of anti-Blackness by yielding limited kinds of privilege and access when these non-White U.S. Americans successfully avoid Blackness."
Su'ad Abdul Khabeer, Muslim Cool
"Solidarity practices between South Asian, Arab, Muslim, and Black communities can be effective only to the extent that notions of anti-Blackness and the system of white supremacy that reinforces them can be disrupted."
Deepa Iyer, author of We Too Sing America
