Professional Troublemaker with Luvvie Ajayi Jones

The Weary Weaponizing of White Woman Tears - BONUS Episode 11


Listen Later

A white woman feels challenged or uncomfortable about something a Black person said or did. Instead of using her words, she cries. Instantly. No matter what the initial catalyst of the situation is, she ends up being appeased, pacified, and pampered.

In this bonus episode of Rants and Randomness, Luvvie is revisiting a previously published piece that starts getting shared on social every time another Becky weaponizes her tears against a Black person.
