    Can certain aspects of what constitutes ‘race’ be performative? I.e. are their certain clothes, behaviours, voice characteristics, words, body movements that make someone a particular race?

    Or is race physically defined?

    If it’s the former I can see a case for transracialism.

    If it’s the latter it’s more difficult for me to see it being possible.



  • I just want to say that I understand the reference for this and for anyone wondering there was a video of a cop who thought an acorn falling on a car roof was a gunshot and he immediately empties an entire magazine into a car while wildly combat rolling like a terrified toddler.

    The body cam footage would be hilarious if it wasn’t so fucking terrifying.
