(20,219 posts)I feel thrilled to see these great initiatives! I wouldn't have known about them without this thread.
yet, White people here are taking it personally? That's crazy. And SELF-ABSORBED! It's not about YOU, White people here who think they're being slammed.
Think about what other people go through, for a change!
To Black people who live with life threatening discrimination, "White America" is a real entity. Everyone, Black and White alike, knows that doesn't include ALL White people. Black people know that there are also many White allies. White allies know who they are, and know they're not being talked down to here.
It's one's own behavior that puts you in one or the other category. You should know clearly where you fit.
goddamn, the IQ around here is going down lately.
