petition to take down all statues of slave traders in the uk

[kasprzaks-arc]

as a heads up, the uk government has said they will not respond to change.org petitions - the original poster has requested to make a petition on the officially government website that is waiting for approval but will hopefully be live on the website tomorrow (13/06) and will be found here !

just because there aren't as many posts of blm circulating and just because we're slowly posting regular "aesthetic" content again it does not mean you have the right to stop educating yourself on issues that affect black people. continue to educate yourself and others, call out racism when you see it and continue to donate and sign petitions. activism that only occurs when somebody dies or something devastating happens is not proper activism, it is performative. so, just because you aren't posting as much about blm or other issues anymore, it does NOT mean you can go back to being ignorant. continue to stay aware. keep that energy and use it and your privilege to help black people and amplify their voices. us non-black people need to recognise that choosing when to speak up or speaking up when it is big is a privilege and is ignorant and we need to fix this.

also something really important to note: the vks don’t have good communication skills. they cannot express their feelings and they cannot process their emotions. they were never afforded the opportunity, nor did they have role models to adopt the ability to self soothe. it was always survival of the fittest on the isle, and having heart to hearts when things didn’t go well just never happened. it was always just fend for yourselves and take care of anyone who got in your way.

THERE IS A SYMPHONY BURSTING IN HIS MOUTH  .          it sounds like pinkblackgold  ,     like           some kind of a voided sunset  ,        some kind of amalgamation of mal and her skin and her sharp mouth and her hands  .       her blistered heart and those thin ankles  .        the way he could press his mouth to her collarbone and taste her heartbeat  .     backbeat  .

the sound of her heart is violent red  .     eli’s never seen the color on paper  ,     before  ,     and           he thinks there must be some poetry to how she makes him see shades that don’t even exist  .            there must be some poetry to the way his own chest beats grey  ,     rhythmic and bland  ,    but it looks almost soft to touch when she’s around  .     some kind of poetry  ,     he thinks  .

elias also thinks it’s so fucking lame  ,     and        she’d pull him to pieces if she knew  .        ‘    shut up  .     it’s not poetry  ,     they’re temporary lyrics  .     it just helps with the beat  .    ’

the curl of his fingers finds her sketchpad    ;       an eye for an eye  .     he tugs  .        ‘    what’re you working on  ,     brat    ?    ’

While the officer’s charges have moved up to second degree and the other three officers are being charged, don’t let the movement die. Our work is far from over. Black people are still far from safe and we are still far from free. However, don’t ever let people tell you that protesting doesn’t work. Don’t ever let people tell you that making noise does nothing in the end. This is history being made right in front of out eyes, but we can’t let it go now. Keep talking, keep donating, keep petitioning, keep protesting, keep sharing links, keep working. Black lives still matter!

unlearning white ignorance

this is especially for the white members of this rpc, please use this as a chance to educate yourselves on how you can unlearn ignorant & racist behaviors. these are just some sources i’ve found, but there are plenty out there for you to look at which i actively encourage you do. i ALSO HIGHLY ENCOURAGE PPL TO SHARE THIS OUTSIDE THEIR RP BLOGS, if you have a non rp blog, other social media, etc, please feel more than welcome to share this around and especially share this information with your other white friends / family / acquaintances.

WHITE PEOPLE, ENOUGH: look at power and control. this women goes into a tedtalk about systematic power and control, and calls to white people to stop writing off and dismissing important discussions on race.

HOW TO BE AN ALLY— DON’T.  she talks about when white “allys” get too overzealous and self proclaim themselves as allys despite making the narrative about themselves, speaking over black voices, and what better approaches you can take to support black lives.

ON PRIVILEGE same girl as above breaks down what privilege is, how people respond to realizing they have privilege, the knee jerk reaction of guilt, why you shouldn’t fall into guilt, and what you can do to use your privilege to support marginalized groups.

HOW RACIST ARE YOU: Jane Elliott’s blue eyes/brown eyes exercise. it tackles the topic of ignorance and oppression, and exposes internalized racist or ignorant behaviors in these adult people. it is a tense and difficult video to watch (esp if you are white), but it’s a good exercise for challenging your own views and ignorance. here’s another video where she does the exercise on college students. 

10 WAYS TO SUPPORT THE BLACK LIVES MATTER MOVEMENT. this article has lots of helpful information for how you can be supportive of the movement as a white person.

other ways that you can start unlearning ignorance that i can just list off the top of my head:

self evaluate. does the topic of racism and black oppression make you uncomfortable? do you get defensive, anxious, or tune out of conversations when it comes up? that’s a big red flag right there and it’s time to challenge that behavior.

listen. when someone calls you out on your behavior, something you said, something you did, whatever it is, LISTEN TO THEM. white people can never understand what it’s like to be in a PoC’s / black person’s shoes, so we are BOUND to make mistakes that will be insensitive, dismissive, and ignorant. the best thing you can do is recognize your mistake, listen to someone who is calling you out on it, apologize, and correct your behavior. here is a good video that talks about how to handle getting called out for problematic behavior.

self educate. yes, it’s very nice and helpful of others to show you what you can do to support black lives, teach you black history, offer the statistics and other sources, but understand it is NOT up to black people to educate you. unless that person is being paid to do it, they are NOT obligated to be your teacher. do your research. not only does this take the weight off black people’s backs to show you (not that they should have to explain to you how they’re being oppressed to begin with, because they SHOULDN’T), but it allows for yourself to become more invested by taking the initiative on your own as you are making the conscious decision to educate yourself rather than waiting to have it spoon fed to you.

speak UP. do NOT be silent on these topics. understand that we are conditioned to be complacent with racism, because we do not experience it. and because we cannot experience racism, it’s easy to become uneasy when it’s being discussed— as it is an experience we cannot personally understand. DO NOT LET THAT STOP YOU FROM SPEAKING UP. white compliancy and white silence is AS BAD AS THE A POLICE OFFICER SHOOTING A BLACK PERSON. there is no TIME to worry about your discomfort or feelings when lives are literally at stake here. if you see someone spouting racist bullshit, cracking racist jokes, harassing black people, SPEAK UP AND DON’T LET IT SLIDE. as a white person you have a privilege that others do not, use that privilege to shut people the fuck down when they’re being racist and ignorant. challenge others and spread awareness to other white people. remember: white silence kills.

shut UP. and while you will feel encouraged and even eager to speak up about these issues, learn when to stop talking. learn when to shut up. you CANNOT speak for black people, as you do not walk in their shoes. do not use this movement as a chance to take center stage and paint this as a story about you— BECAUSE IT’S NOT ABOUT YOU. use your privilege to boost black voices, but do not speak over them. listen to them, advocate for them, but do not speak over or for them. 

and remember this: this is all just basic human decency. doing this does not make you special, it does not make you the ~hero~ or ~savior~ of the story or whatever fairytale bullshit you might think. this is called being an empathetic and supportive human being. learn it, practice it, and repeat it.

i remember watching d3 when it first came out and following the herd mentality at the time that mal is selfish and cruel and she shouldn’t have done what she did. but now, after watching the movie again, and no longer being part of the herd that i’d been in, i think mal got the most fucked over in d3.

just a positive space for black rpers to talk. clown around with others in the rpc community. plot together, character build together. even if you come to just vent and be unapologetically black. you are free to do so. i do ask that you be 18 and over. this server is your ocean to explore, and feel comfortable. ♡

[gaiahealing-deactivated20200719]

if you are sick of seeing blm posts, i hate to break it to you, but you need to ask yourself why. if you 'just want this to be over with', you need to ask yourself why. i'm not here to tell you what i think of you, i'm simply saying if you want this world to be a better place for everyone, you need to take part in the collapse and transformation, which always starts with you. this is never gonna be over. it never has been. it's been happening for hundreds of years. it's time we take our power back, it's time people of color can use their power freely. question your thoughts, change them, listen.
