       I think I have a question for settler-colonial folk who are decolonizing, or whatever - let's not get bogged down in terms right now.Decolonizing is often viewed as an exodus, emigration, departure, from whiteness.This implies a new location that one's culture/person now is in.Those of you who think you have it/them, what do the decolonized parts of your culture look like?Like, without whiteness, that commonality between yourself and the folk around you, yourself and the actions of most of the human world...what do you do? read? think about? talk about?

       @emsenn I guess I'm coming from a different place than many American white folks because I HAVE a culture other than whiteness already. So for me decolonizing largely looks likes 1) embracing my Jewish heritage, 2) recognizing and removing from myself those things that come from the European-Christian hegemony, 3) learning to recognize and correct those things which are harmful within Judaism, including aspects of white culture  European and white American Jews have picked up in recent centuries
