Please stop encouraging nonblack people to check on the Black people in their lives because a lot of them are checking on strangers and it is uncomfortable. They do not understand the assignment. Thank you.

It& #39;s more about me than y& #39;all. Because what if I& #39;m not fine? Why would I tell you, a stranger? I wouldn& #39;t. I& #39;m going to have to use my energy to be polite and thank you for asking. It& #39;s just more of my energy that I have to give. I& #39;d rather be left alone.

I think the hypervisibility of anti-Black violence has given a lot of people the idea that they are much closer to individual Black people than they are.

You watch and hear about these lynchings so often than you feel a closeness to Black people that we do not feel to you.
