1. Be an Ally, don’t talk over POC! We know what the fuck we are going through. You don’t have to tell us.

2. Advocate, listen, and learn.

3. Fucking stick up for us at horse shows. I know damn well that y’all see the stares & hear the whispers.

4. YOU CANNOT SAY THE N WORD!
5. You don’t have to be on the front lines to help.

6. DO NOT share protesters faces!

7. BLACK PEOPLE DO NOT HAVE TO EDUCATE YOU!! Some are willing (me) and that’s great. However, don’t expect it. Also, understand the people who are willing to educate are not a spokesperson +
for all black people. We all have different opinions and beliefs.

8. We get that you can have a hard life as any color person. YOUR FUCKIN SKIN ISNT MAKIN IT HARDER... stop making this shit about u & how ur oh so scared. Welcome 2 five seconds of our life.
9. Wake the fuck up, our justice system is bias.

10. Stop telling me “but there are good cops.” BITCH I KNOW, I’m not about to stick around & see if homie is a good cop or if homie is about to light my ass up.

11. Stop saying “well I don’t understand.” You won’t ever fully+
be able to understand. Learn to have empathy and to understand others pain.
& by understand others pain, I mean try. Just take a second to try and feel for someone else. Take a second and listen without trying to respond. Understand the best u can.
12. Don’t tell us how to respond to these injustices. We were peaceful & there was a problem. We kneeled & there was a problem. We speak & there is a problem. We hold up signs & there is a problem. We riot & there is a problem.

We are no longer making this convenient for you.
+ we are getting slaughtered & y’all are talking about a burning building. BUILDINGS can be rebuilt. YOU CANNOT BRING BACK SOMEONE FROM THE DEAD! This has been going on for centuries, WE R TIRED!
