Karada House works mostly within the realm of kink, BDSM, gender, and sexuality. This work can only be seen and understood as an intersectional endeavor encompassing many other aspects such as language, wealth, housing, body size, mental health, neurodiversity, ability, education, skin color, relationship constellations, and citizenship. This specific 2-part workshop series is not specifically about whiteness within the context of kink, gender, and sexuality. In our opinion it is, however, a vital first step for white people in general and white kinksters, whether or not they consider themselves queer, to understand how racism comes into play in every aspect of this society – kink lives, relationships, and spaces included.
Although European and Northern American societies are promoted as inclusive, it is obvious that this is not the case. It’s still very much cis-white, Christian, capitalist, ableist, and patriarchal as they were. Due to the dominance of white, Europe-centric, patriarchal, ableist standards, people in Europe and Northern America are categorized and understood as normal bodies and irregular bodies. These supposedly irregular bodies are oppressed by the European and Northern American systems in various forms of power at the micro and macro levels and are discriminated against at the individual and institutional levels. This form of systemic oppression and indoctrinated false reality has roots in European colonialism, Nazism, and imperialism.
Part 1: The Genesis of Racism (October 6th, 2022: 7-10 pm)
The first part of this workshop series will enable the participants to factually understand the genesis of racism by exploring historical and current facts, situations, and occurrences that paved way for colonialism, racial hierarchy, genocides, neocolonialism, and modern-day racism.
Part 2: White Privilege Reflection (October 13th, 2022: 7-10 pm)
The workshop enables an open space for white and white-passing folks to gather and share their ideas and understanding of being an Ally, discuss their mistakes, share their practices,
knowledge and reflect on their privilege.
