white people need to start raising content creators who are poc instead of writing our stories for us. like either do your damn research or don’t write the story. i constantly see white people trying to have “representation” and 90% of the time they’re caricatures of what a poc is.
white people consistently gravitating towards another white person telling the story of a brown person and giving themselves a pat on the back for basically telling their white experience through a brown mouth. white people, please understand yall are part of the problem and you need to be conscious of the work you’re consuming and making.
then there’s poc content creators giving accurate deep portrayals of their experience who get little to no exposure and who’s legitimate stories get swept under the rug.
this is about latinx, indigenous, black, mixed, asian, and other racial/ethnic minorities (espeically those who are disabled and/or lgbtq+)
it’s really telling when a white people scrolls past this, so reblog. ask questions. start a dialogue dont just ignore and act like you’re the exception to this.
