A (Possibly Arrogant) Plea for Intersectionality from a White Cishet Male Human
Our fragile egosystems defending the harm
Done to others in the name of hierarchical norms
Our ethical obligation is to stop
Believing the most absurd lies
To ignore the truth that's in front of our eyes
And cling to our bias
"One Struggle, One Fight" is more than empty sloganeering
It's the rallying cry that promotes listening over hearing and
Our very survival means that we have to stop
Believing the most absurd lies
To ignore the truth that's in front of our eyes
And cling to our bias
Towards the injustice
As we benefit from privilege
No enemy just you and me
Done to others in the name of hierarchical norms
Our ethical obligation is to stop
Believing the most absurd lies
To ignore the truth that's in front of our eyes
And cling to our bias
"One Struggle, One Fight" is more than empty sloganeering
It's the rallying cry that promotes listening over hearing and
Our very survival means that we have to stop
Believing the most absurd lies
To ignore the truth that's in front of our eyes
And cling to our bias
Towards the injustice
As we benefit from privilege
No enemy just you and me
