Showing the Faces of White Supremacy

“Why do people share these guy’s [sic] photos. Don’t you realise that’s exactly what they want?”

This is the comment a follower left on QC’s Facebook page after I posted a photo of the El Paso shooter along with a blog post about the massacre. I reject the premise that we should not show the face of a killer. I understand that there are terrorists who seek infamy from heinous acts, and who may thrive off notoriety. However, we need to put a face to white supremacy and domestic terrorism, and in most cases, it’s the face of young, white males.
