The myth of white supremacy does not announce itself. It works through systems, institutions, and policies that shape what you are taught to want, what you are taught to fear, and what you are taught to doubt. Chief among those: your own judgment. A person who trusts themselves is harder to manage. A person who has learned to second-guess every instinct, to outsource every decision, to measure their own experience against someone else's approval, is exactly what the myth needs to keep running.

This is not about getting something back that was taken. It is about remembering what was already there before the taking began. That distinction matters. Recovery implies you were broken. Memory implies you were covered. Those are not the same thing. One asks you to build something new. The other asks you to excavate what is still there underneath everything the myth stacked on top of it.
