"Nonviolence helps to promote and maintain a racist social system by discouraging people (especially people of color) from truly challenging its existence. You must also stop and wonder if one reason why many white pacifists denounce violent tactics amongst oppressed people (especially minorities) is because it threatens the privileged position of power and safety that most whites don’t want to give up."
