Has it occurred to you yet that these unwarranted glib ugly disparaging comments you make painting all white people as racists might not be appreciated by friends and those who work with you? Or should they just take the blame for attitudes they do not possess, statements they never made, a lifestyle they do not live?

How fucking dare…

If these “friends” feel personally attacked by the things I say about racism, maybe they should check themselves and ask why they feel uncomfortable?

If these “friends” can’t handle me talking about white people and racism in a way that makes THEM feel comfortable, then they aren’t friends of mine.

I’ve already held my tongue and tried to talk about these issues in a “toned down” way to be nice. I continually do so in my everyday life in order to just “get along” and not be labeled the “angry black girl.” I’m not going to do that in my own online social media space too.  

So let me be even blunter: White folks. Fuck your feelings. Your feelings aren’t more important than actual racism. I’m not here to make you comfortable.

And because I’m NICE, here’s some resources for white people who ACTUALLY mean well and not passive-aggressively trying to guilt me into shutting the fuck up:

-  “’Not All White People’ and Derailing Conversations”

- “Dear White People, Stop Making Racism All About You”

- “5 Ways White People Can Fight White Supremacy”

- “What People Mean When They Say All White People Are Racist”
