White supremacy is grounded in the notion that the white man's happiness can be purchased by the black man's misery.

White supremacy is the sin-qua-non of the white man's world — black man has functioned in the white man's world as a fixed star...and as he moves out of his place, heaven and earth are shaken to the foundations.

White supremacy is based first and foremost on the degradation of black bodies, by convincing them that their bodies are ugly, their intellect is inherently underdeveloped, their culture is less civilized, and their future warrants less concern than that of other peoples.

White supremacy is a testament to its bearers inhumanity and fear, a fear that without such a guarantee of superiority, they will lose their identity.

White supremacy is a useful term for understanding the complicity of people of color in upholding and maintaining racial hierarchies that do not involve force (I.E slavery, apartheid).

White supremacy is such that even though one may not embrace racism as prejudice or domination (especially domination that involves coercive control), they fail to recognize the ways their actions support and affirm the very structure of racist domination and oppression that they wish to see eradicated.
