Fellow white ladies- Saying "I& #39;m not a Karen!" instantly *makes you a Karen*.

Learning to STFU and just *listen* to black women is the greatest educational experience you can have on this thing. Keeping your mouth closed and your mind open isn& #39;t *that* hard. Try it. https://twitter.com/JuneSummer1/status/1247003869961318401">https://twitter.com/JuneSumme...
You know me. I& #39;ll tell you the truth. And the truth is, I was one of those women before I came to Twitter.

I& #39;m poor and a Jew and I& #39;m not WASP-y white. I thought that exempted me.

Then I came here and women of color hit me in the head with their intellect and their truth.
I realized my whiteness had nothing to do with my foundation shade or my bank balance.

My whiteness is determined by cops letting me go when I fuck up and security people not following me in stores. People not calling 911 when I lose my shit and yell at my husband in the street
I realized that black women have all my problems PLUS an infinite number of other ones unique to them.

It& #39;s not fucking fair. It& #39;s wrong and shitty. And all they& #39;re trying to do is get you to HEAR THEM.
