In reply to the discussion: How Bout This, Tina Fey: Give Us (Black People) the Sheet Cake, and You Go Confront the White Women [View all]mulsh
(2,959 posts)all that funny but it's on a national TV show and it's a fact that the vast majority of people out here will not be counter protesting or confronting Nazis and white racists en mass. I get how people can see this as a graphic example of clueless white privlige and I suspect that was part of Ms. Fay's intention.
After over 40 years of participating in every major protest in the Bay Area (starting with Free Huey and the Oakland Induction Center in the 60's) I can no longer physically march or shake my fists in big crowds.
If you're like me and have age, physical or geographical reasons why you can't participate in counter protest you might consider donating to the Souther Poverty Law Center. They have a consistent and successful record of identifying, litigating and even shutting down assorted hate groups.
Here's a link if you'd like to make a donation.
