An important graphic.
Racism is embedded in this society, especially among white people.
Our speech can be a powerful thing when it comes to reflecting our own self awareness regarding our white privilege, and demonstrating our own implicit biases.
And since racism and biases ARE so heavily embedded in our society, they require a constant effort to unlearn. And yes, I'm including myself in this.
It's not easy, and it's not fun, because it requires coming to terms with the fact that you are not immune to racist thoughts or actions just because you personally don't think that you're racist. And then you must actively remind yourself not to speak or act in accordance to those biases that you were taught.
And yes, once you have educated yourself on this and you are self aware, you will begin to catch yourself thinking things or doing things that are racist.
I used to take comfort in something I was told once. Your first thought is what you were conditioned to think, the next one is who you are.
So if you catch yourself, or someone else catches it and calls you out, don't be ashamed and don't get defensive.
Stop, reflect, apologize, and LEARN FROM IT.

So I posted this to my facebook feed.
So why is it whenever I post anything about equal rights or the safety of workers I get a white dude in my inbox trying to explain the "other side".
Like thanks, the other side already the status quo, I understand it perfectly. I don't need your blessed opinion, and if I had wanted it, I wouldve asked.
Shrugging off unfairness and inequality as "the way things are" allows it to thrive, and honestly tells me you are either just a coward, or bad person.
Thank god some of us actually have the courage and integrity to stand against it.
**also, not caring about covid because it's people with underlying health issues most at risk is ableist and evil. You're saying our lives matter less, and it's okay that it's us who will mostly die. It means you have no empathy or basic humanity.
If you're religious, every one of those deaths you condoned is a strike against your soul, whoops, looks like you're headed to Hell.
Ridiculous.
if you haven’t heard what disney just did to their college program cast members, including the ones who came from other countries, do me a favor and learn about it, talk about it, share it, spread it, i need this to be known. i need this to not go away. they need to face consequences for what they just did to THOUSANDS of employees (most of which are under the age of 25) with such a short notice. please dont let them hide what they just did.
here’s someone on twitter explaining it in better words than i can handle right now.
they laid off thousands on saturday, told them to get out of their housing in less than four days, told the ICPs (international college program) employees they need to be out in less than 4 days despite them being in another country on their own during travel bans no longer allowing them to fly home with their work visas no longer extended since they no longer work for the company, they told them that this is for their safety but they dont care that they just threw THOUSANDS of young adults into homelessness during a pandemic. and then they dropped Frozen 2 on disney+ because they needed to cover it. dont let them get away with that.
This has under 300 notes.

So my mom today, who's almost 60, was talking about how if the roles were reversed, and it was young people on the line her generation would band together to protect their children and grandchildren and I lost it.
No they fucking wouldn't, or older people would give a shit about climate change and how it's going to affect us still here in 30-40 years.
You already proved to us you didn't give a shit, and now YOU'RE crying that the roles are reversed.
Gen Z has already decided they don't care about you because you didnt care about them, and I can't say I blame them. 🤷♀️
So yah, they're at beaches, they're still outside, they're not worried about the coronavirus affecting them and not thinking about you either, the same as you don't care about climate change affecting them since you'll be gone by then.
Am I supposed to cry for the boomers who destroyed our economy, climate, and credibility as a country, and are now scared because the shoe is on the other foot??
You're giving us millenials and the Gen Z SHIT to inherit, and you expect everyone to come together to protect you, when you've been blaming us and belittling us, and destroying our futures??
I have completely lost my cool with Trump supporters.
You support a man who rapes women and children, is openly racist, and has the intelligence of a fucking shoe.
Republicans never shut up about family values, but I've never seen any of it in practice when it comes to the men you vote for, you're all just cultists who worship your leaders (religious and political alike) and have just convinced me you don't have have a moral code of your own. You preach one thing, and act in the complete opposite manner.
You never shut up about soldiers, and yet republican officials are statistically the most dangerous to them when it comes to sending them to die in unnecessary wars and giving them no benefits when they come back.
Christian values my ass when it comes to helping the poor, or to immigration, or anyone who isn't white really.
Open carry and gun rights, unless it's black people then the cop was justified in shooting them immediately, what if they'd had a gun!
Trump declares the coronavirus a hoax one week, then the next says he knew it from the beginning, and you all nod along through the whole thing like the mindless morons you are.
Y'all fake as fuck.
Racists and rapists.
it's not "edgy" it's being racist.
it's not "edgy" it's being sexist.
it's not "edgy" it's being an asshole.
Assholes, racists, and sexists have been around since the beginning of time, I don't know what ground you think you're breaking.
Your shit is tired, old, and sad.
Do ppl know about trump actively trying to buy the company that’s currently working on a covid vaccine and wanting to keep it to American use only or is this a Germany only headline

You really need to see this in the US because everyone else on the fucking planet has been seeing this for nearly a week and we are PISSED
Your government, in the middle of a global fucking pandemic, literally tried to buy the vaccine under development for said pandemic exclusively for the US.
This isn’t just a daily fail bullshit squawk, this has been confirmed by multiple sources, INCLUDING THE GODDAMN GERMAN GOVERNMENT. “CAPITALISM HAS LIMITS” and you have crossed a fucking line.

In 2000, Pete Buttigieg wrote an award-winning essay in which he praises Bernie Sanders for his integrity and political effectiveness. Some highlights:
“[Bernie] is a powerful force for conciliation and bi-partisanship on Capitol Hill.”
“It may seem strange that someone so steadfast in his principles has a reputation as a peacemaker between divided forces in Washington, but this is what makes Sanders truly remarkable.”
“Above all, I commend Bernie Sanders for giving me an answer to those who say American young people see politics as a cesspool of corruption, beyond redemption.”
I know exactly which name I’m avoiding in the polls
This is extremely important to acknowledge. Please acknowledge it.
true story! a few years ago i was working at both ol*ve g*rden and tj m*xx, and both of the following happened within the same several weeks:
at ol*ve g*rden, they'd put up a christmas tree in the lobby and had the employees each decorate a snowflake ornament to hang on it. i asked the general manager (mostly as a joke tbh) if i could bring in a menorah to display for chanukkah
and the gm is like, "well we're not allowed to display any religious imagery in the restaurant. it's a rule from corporate."
to which i said, "you are standing in front of a christmas tree as we speak."
and i shit you not, she goes "oh, but that's not really religious! that's just festive, you know, for the holidays." and would not hear another word about it
then a few weeks later at tj, probably once we were firmly into december but idr for sure, they start breaking out the "holiday" aprons for the employees to wear (all red, of course), and santa hats, and these fucking elf ear and reindeer antler headbands.
and one of my managers sees that i'm not wearing anything except the apron, and she asks me to put one on. and i was like "i'm not really comfortable with wearing any of those, since i don't celebrate christmas." (also i just really didn't want to wear one bc they looked stupid and they made my ears and head hurt, but still)
and she ALSO says, "oh, it's not christmas, it's just festive for winter. also corporate wants every sales associate to wear one"
which actually just made me more uncomfortable bc now she's trying to MAKE me wear one anyway
i was like "yeah, no that's definitely all christmas stuff and i'm really not comfortable with that"
so she let it go with a lot of huffing and eye-rolling, and then goes on the walkie to tell the entire staff "oh by the way guys, i forgot to tell you, but corporate FINALLY said we're allowed to say merry christmas to the customers this year!" and everyone up at the registers w me was like NICE! YES!
and i was just
so like, that's what we mean when we say that xtianity is so pervasive in our culture that a lot of people genuinely believe xmas things are secular, even though they AREN'T
