| Summary: | In this article, I critically analyze and respond to empirical data in the form of racialized discourse-specifically, racist messages sent directly to me as a result of my previously published article entitled, "A Love Letter to Educational Leaders of Color: CREWing UP with Critical Whiteness Studies". Being informed by a robust racial analysis of acts that reinforce white supremacy, this article will likely be perceived as <i>not</i> nice by those who benefit from and work to protect white supremacy. Likely, <i>I</i> will be the one accused of being hateful, divisive, and even racist. In order to interrogate the weaponization of this conception of "niceness", my analysis will be driven by Critical Race Hermeneutics with white emotionality and whitelashing used as interpretive lenses. As this article's engagement with these critical race frameworks poses a threat to those who benefit from racism, this is a dangerous, not-so-nice critical race love letter. |
