Welcome welcome welcome to my classroom. SafeSpaceOn your right you will find a table with tea and coffee. On the left is a large window that allows all this WONDERFUL natural sunlight in.

We are in the upper village so that you would not have to travel too far from your house and family this morning- also because we know how urban it is downtown. This decision was made for your safety. Additionally, we are all from the same ilk so that we could provide a safe space. I turned on the heater so that everyone is warm and comfortable. Warm, comfortable, and safe.

Sir, DO NOT MOVE AGAIN. DO NOT MAKE ANY FAST MOVEMENTS.

But sir, I was just getting my registration.

I DON’T FUCKING CARE. DO. NOT. MOVE.

Safe space?

I don’t like affirmative action because it dilutes my degree. You know, letting all kinds of undeserving minorities in these elite schools. But not you, Jamaal, you aren’t like all of them.  You’re one of us.

Sir, I need you to remove your hood.

For what reason, sir?

No hats allowed he said—while wearing his Santa hat.

Safe space?

Please tell me where in this world I am supposed to feel safe? In my line of work we stress the importance of safe spaces so that whites can speak freely about uncomfortable subjects.

Subjects I embody, daily.

What is a safe space? Safe for who? Safe in that you can spew your racist language and not take responsibility for it? So that you can blame others for the racial oppression that is perpetuated by your creation of ‘safe spaces?’

Ah. I get it. Let’ s name it. Safe space for whites to talk about race without feeling guilty and then not having to do anything about it afterwards.

Our black and brown bodies are under assault by the media. Their vision of what is beauty has only distorted our small children’s grasp on reality.

Our bodies are under assault by the very people in charge of protecting and serving.

Serving their interest for law and order.

Aka. Create safe spaces

Aka remove the black and brown

Our bodies are attacked in the classroom.

When I am in charge for all blacks and looked at for ‘your people’s perspective’

 

So tell me, where is my safe space?
