“Dear White Supremacy." Fiasco starts. "First of all you are not really that
supreme, While throughout history White Supremacy it must be admitted you
have achieved some very dominant positions. These positions have been gained
mostly through force or some biological agent such as disease that did a lot of
the dirty work for you in advance. I mean anybody can use force on an unarmed
populous and anybody can have smallpox. Not judging, just wanted to point out
that having a disease that native folks aren't immune to because they've never
seen it doesn't make you strategically smart or tactically superior, just kind of
sick. And these dominant positions don't really stand up to the test of time that
long either."
He continues, “There is nothing about you biologically or physically that denotes
an innate mode of supremacy. For that matter there is also nothing about you
psychologically, philosophically, cognitively, academically, socially,
architecturally, culturally or even financially that signifies a higher position
above any other group. And to be diplomatic there is nothing about you that
denotes innate inferiority as well. So what you really are is something in the
middle. You are regular. White Regularity is congruent to all other forms of
regularity i.e. Black, Brown, Etc etc.”
In addition, Fiasco says that the very concept of "white supremacy" can't exist
without diversity. “If you wanted to get really ironic and meta about it, White
Supremacy has to validate it's own identity based solely on its relationship to
other races! I mean now that's what I would call joined at the hip. Without us
there is no white supremacy because there would be nothing to be supreme
over!”
