idk how to phrase this but .... the way i see a lot of Black people turn on and vilify all Asian people when they see anti-Black racism from some of them.... the way they don’t hold white people to the same standards..... hmmm
“this is why i don’t care about what *those people* go through” bro... hol up there. what’s all this dehumanisation i see
this is a really complicated, painful topic to approach, i get that. but the prevalence of anti-Black racism in non-Black communities of colour, doesn’t justify being wildly racist — it doesn’t help you heal from the pain it causes, or fight it
if you’re a non-Black poc reading this: fight the anti-Black racism in your communities, your family, yourself. it’s the least you can do
if you’re Black and reading this: you can criticise and fight against anti-Blackness from non-Black poc without being racist against them
if you’re Black and reading this: you can criticise and fight against anti-Blackness from non-Black poc without being racist against them
also if ur not Black and a poc pls don’t interact w/ this! it’s not your lane
adding these on for more context because this is an important convo i don’t see spoken about enough outside of usually racist, reactionary posts ;; my ig is @bitterbleue if you wanna hear me talk abt it, too !!! that’s all the political energy i got 4 2day tho <3
