I& #39;ve not posted myself about current events in the States, but I’ve felt so much pain from seeing the news daily. I genuinely still don’t know how to process it, so I kept waiting. While not my place to speak from privilege about prejudice I& #39;ve not experienced... (thread)
I will be trying to share posts elevating messages/support for others. This is not just going to & #39;go away& #39; next week, so neither will my support. Please support if you can (check rts for links) if not sharing is powerful as well.
My core belief is we can& #39;t let hate win. This is our world, don’t hide from it because it’s ugly or not what you log onto twitter for. If we want change we’ve got to look it in the eyes, take it with us and better our actions daily. If not this will just be a set of hashtags.
If I can offer something to help u through this, it is empathy. Put aside your lived experience for a sec, and attempt to process how one must feel on the side of prejudice, the loved ones of those who have died bc of race. Attempt to live with actions acting against it.
If you don’t care then hold that L, but if you DO feel pain, know that if you can& #39;t say you’ve experienced it, being an ally is valuable. I used to be much more ignorant, but admitting it and trying to become educated is huge. Attempting, trying, and emphasizing is what we need
If these posts bother you idc. I& #39;m posting because I have a large following and these are my values. Why the else have a following yknow? If I could inspire one person to reflect , take a step to a world i could tolerate, that is more than enough for me.
Be safe, be kind
