Beyond the Master’s Tools: In Conversation with Keller Easterling, Endriana Audisho and Jasper Ludewig
September 11, 2024
*Architecture Theory Review*, Vol. 28, Issue 2, 2024, 277-289.
It is not the job of Black and Indigenous people to wrest the land and other resources from a white establishment. It is the job of white institutions to release their often-criminal hold on these resources. Also, these stories go back to a moment around 1966 when the leaders of the Student Nonviolent Organising Committee (SNCC) turned to their white partners in SNCC and other activist organisations and said, “you need to work on your own community. More than your (often patronising) allyship, we need you to build a beachhead in your own white community. We can’t do anything about the guys standing around at the gas station. You are the ones who have to work on that.” The white activists thought that working on other white people was too hard, but it had certainly not been easy for Black leaders to come to the South and ask people to risk their lives to vote and stand up for desegregation. There were some white activists who made efforts along these lines, but the work often failed largely because of quarrels over ideological orthodoxies. There is nothing stopping the white left from working on whiteness, but it is a job that is continually avoided.
