Of course, even the term "tradition" is weighted in whiteness. It's tradition from the last few hundred years - of colonialism and capitalism. There's little actual long-term history that supports these absurd assumptions, as anyone familiar with the Indigenous people of Turtle Island, for example, will tell you. It's time we made gains in human rights and to do that we must start recognising what white cisheteronormativity is: far from being "normal," it's a creation connected to colonialism, plain and simple; a recent concoction; another form of control.
