One of my biggest pet-peeves is when nonblack ppl (especially nonblack poc) completely ignore that there are black ppl of pretty much every ethnicity/culture. Like there are black latinxs, black Asians, black Jews, etc…So if you are complaining about the hyper visibility of black ppl by saying “but what about my ppl”, remember when you say “my ppl” some of those ppl are black too and most likely they are treated like shit within their culture as well.
