Please get off my page if your a white woman, queer and\or disabled person who genuinely does not believe your whiteness gives you privilege. If you equate addressing racism and calling out the massive imbalance and the mistreatment of poc in communities as bigotry, harssment or "oppression olympics" i want you nowhere near my page. Please learn Intersectionality and stop acting like your marginalized identities absolve you of wrong doing, ability to perpetuate bigotry and your whiteness. Jesus christ. And yall wonder why we don't feel safe or comfortable in "progressive" spaces.

“I think white gay people feel cheated because they were born, in principle, into a society in which they were supposed to be safe. The anomaly of their sexuality puts them in danger, unexpectedly. Their reaction seems to me in direct proportion to the sense of feeling cheated of the advantages which accrue to white people in a white society. There’s an element, it has always seemed to me, of bewilderment and complaint. Now that may sound very harsh, but the gay world as such is no more prepared to accept black people than anywhere else in society. It’s a very hermetically sealed world with very unattractive features, including racism.”

— James Baldwin, from a 1984 interview given with Richard Goldstein, in the Village Voice

Boy they have called me everything but a child of God on this app for talking about antiblackness in society lmaoooo. I want y'all to know I do this purely for the love of my people, education, and the Game, because it surely isn't for personal benefit or peace 🤣😭

[meanmisscharles]

And you damn sure don't do it because it's EASY.

Salute, Niece. Like my grandma used to say "Ain't nobody mad but the devil, and ain’t nobody scared but his imps."

[whitecherrylavender]

Representation is great! How about giving money to black girls to play hockey and making sure they have access to a rink and a space without racial violence?

Don’t forget you can donate to Black Girl Hockey Club and the Women of Colour Hockey Collective!

[ndnbutch]

yeah, calling a Black bisexual woman “thoroughly homophobic” because she’s daring to criticize a ship between a young Black man and a white vampire who wants to quite literally feed off his vitality and talent and is rightfully invoking the history of white supremacist cannibalism to do so is WILD work!! Ice get behind me.

[creatingblackcharacters]

WHAT DO YOU MEAN??? WHY DO I KEEP FINDING THESE THINGS OUT BY RANDOM POSTS???

Also they're (whoever this loser is) mad I said that shipping Remmick and Sammie clearly misses the Very Obvious, Spoonfed point of the movie, and even partakes in it?? They can die mad about it!

Thoroughly homophobic. Something must be in the air right now, it's "hate Black women" on ten thousand at the moment.

[creatingblackcharacters]

"I don't know what most white people in this country feel, but I can only conclude what they feel from the state of their institutions. I don't know if white Christians hate Negroes or not, but I know that we have a Christian Church, which is white and a Christian Church, which is Black.

I know as Malcolm X once put it, that the most segregated hour in American life is high noon on Sunday. That says a great deal for me about a Christian nation, it means I can't afford to trust most white Christians and certainly cannot trust the Christian Church.

I don't know whether the labour unions and their bosses really hate me. That doesn't matter. But I know I'm not in their unions. I don't know if the real estate lobby has anything against Black people, but I know the real estate lobby is keeping me in the ghetto. I don't know if the board of education hates Black people, but I know the textbooks they give my children to read, and the schools that we have to go to.

Now this is the evidence. You want me to make an act of faith, risking myself, my life, my woman, my assistant, my children on some idealism, which you assure only exists in America, which I have never seen."

-James Baldwin, 1968, on the Dick Cavett Show (clip from I Am Not Your Negro)

Stop asking Black people to be patient and have faith. Earn it.

I see a lot of folks defending their vitriolic repugnance towards toddlers with cries of "but my sensory needs!" as if children are not also in possession of sensory needs. As if you, an adult here on Tumblr.com, do not have the capability and resources to learn the skills or acquire aids for coping with competing access needs. Or, y'know, just the option to leave, the way children most often do not.

You're holding an actual child to higher standards than you hold yourself, but it's the child that should be removed from public and community spaces. For your comfort.

Go fuck yourselves.

[dovesndecay]

"autistic/ADHD website!!" they cheer, idly shoving small children forcefully back into the torment nexus they had themselves previously escaped from.

Bloggers of color: Talking about, venting, or bringing up racism in a community and how bad it is

White Tumblr users: Ah yeah but only if its ACTUALLY racism going on, you shouldn't call out something unless its ACTUALLY racist, you could insight harssment, sometimes everything is made about race when it shouldn't be ya know, you see my friend gets harassed online for no reason beacuse of this, if something ACTUALLY racist is happening sure call it out but most of the time-

[creatingblackcharacters]

This is how y'all look when you play devil's advocate for racists, btw. Really stupid and equally racist. No context but plenty of opinion, a REFUSAL to engage, even, with the 87 screenshots of evidence of racism provided, but thinking because you used big words incorrectly we should take you seriously. Please don't be this person, it's getting extremely old.

[thebeautyofblackneutrality]

saw a twitter post about how a non-binary person was bothered by people sayin’ “they is” instead of “they are” and it’s definitely a reason why i created this blog and the blacknbculture blog. no matter how pro-black or anti-racism a white nigga will be they will always find some way to criticize “ghetto”, “trashy”, or “lazy” ways of speakin’ and bein’.

i cannot speak my dialect around white without havin’ to assimilate unless i want people to mock me or just laugh at everything i say, even if i’m actually mad. other times, i just feel like i come off as rude to white people. in english i see examples of my native dialect be used as a “incorrect examples” of Real English. the reason i write in my dialect is so i don’t lose it bein’ surrounded by so many white people who only tolerate me as long as i throw my culture away. usin’ “is” instead of “are” in African American English (AAE) is the most common feature in the dialect i’d argue it’s part of what make it so distinct, along with the accent as well. i will not be fooled by white people bothered by grammar, cause 99% it’s racism they probably don’t even know of.

so, i will be sayin’ “they is”, actually. and i’ll say it proudly.

[cutecipher]

i really thought the point of "being lgbt+ doesn't absolve you of racism as a white person" was that white people arent absolved of racism by being marginalized but it really seems like people think other marginalizations make it okay. no being disabled doesn't do it. no being poor doesnt do it. we need to fight against racism actively no matter what.

[cutecipher]

[slewfootwitch]

If a person's friends are racist and they don't care because it doesn't impact them or they try to reframe their buddy's racist behavior as something else, they are also racist, okay? 🫶

[slewfootwitch]

Also if your friends are saying racist, antisemitic and otherwise heinously weird things about people, you may want to consider just not being their friends instead of just sending anons to the people they're talking about. 🫰

[hillbillybubbeleh]

Not only is it okay to stop being friends with someone because they're racist, it's the bare minimum thing to do.

And just so we're clear, if you stick around with racists, you can't get upset that you're associated with racism or that people think you're a racist too. Because if your friend's racism isn't enough to end a friendship over, that means you're okay with racism. Being okay with racism means you're racist. Just so you know.

[the-quasar-hero]

A concerning amount of y’all seem to think that being racist is a morally neutral position, instead of a prejudice that you are supposed to work on dismantling such as sexism, homophobia, and so on. I’d suggest watching kindergarten level cartoons to learn about treating others like human beings but some of y’all already do that and it’s not doing the trick.

[the-quasar-hero]

I don’t know how to say this without sounding like a broken record. A lot of y’all talk about misogyny, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, etc but don’t wanna summon the same vim when racism is brought up. Using the excuse that this is a predominantly white space is the same line of thinking as “boys will be boys” when men do something sexist. A group of ppl being of a certain demographic that doesn’t experience a form of bigotry doesn’t excuse their perpetuating of it. If you think a guy should check his peers when they’re being misogynistic, then you should check your white peers when they’re similarly being racist. And similarly if you are disgusted when a guy tries to shrug off misogyny and say it’s not a big deal, and do the same exact thing when it comes to racism think for TWO SECONDS how that makes you look!

[the-quasar-hero]

To neatly summarize, if you consider yourself a progressive person and combat bigotry where it appears but stop short when racism rears its head, it’s not a good look. If your compassion evaporates on the axis of racial discrimination, it will call into question your judgment on other bigotries as they’re tangled in a messy web of oppression. I’m not expecting you to be Malcom X up in here, but for the love of everything on this earth stop acting like it’s not a big deal.

trans poc, please i beg of you get transition inspo of people with your ethnicity

i was incredibly dysphoric about my round face and softer features until i started looking at the faces of hispanic men and realized that those features weren’t feminine at all, they were ethnic features white supremacy had conditioned me to see as less masculine

your ethnic features are beautiful, and you do not need to look european to look masculine or feminine
