While white feminism has a power base, we shouldn't get to use racist tropes to score 'points'

It's disgusting when it happens. It's also something that needs to be examined constantly-- privilege-- I hated it when " check your privilege" became a way of indicating the politically correct, or superficial, rather than the deep down soul searching white feminists need to do, every day and in every situation.
