AMEN.
AMEN.
You have for many years before. Ask yourself how you missed all the blatant racism and general fuckery going on in our country. Maybe you, like alot of well-meaning white “allies” assumed that its not as bad as people are making it out to be, that as long as you can go about being white and free, things will just be…
Oh, that “drawing false conclusions based upon my race” thing? That also happens to me. too....eveyday I might add. Being treated like. n***er doesn’t feel so good, I am sure you “assumed” it doesn’t. Whatever, being a Democrat doesn’t make you an ally.
“Care and do shit?”
Tuck your white feelings in.
I have been living this my entire life. You just started giving a damn two days ago.
When was it EVER the place for us?
In the midst of your white feelings being hurt over Trump, you fail to understand that this is nothing new. Say Hillary won, would you feel any responsibility to get out and fight for the disadvantaged or would you assume that “welp, we won, shit is okay, racism and sexism CURED!”?…
Please leave. People of color and the LGBT don’t need your cowardliness.
I find it fucking amusing that we have been telling your for years how fucked up the country is, but now you can’t cope? I have had to cope with this racist society my entire life. Leave, please. Your white feelings aren’t helping me at all.
I am sorry every young, liberal white woman is having a shitty week.
That feeling you have? I have been feeling like that for years. But it’s all about white people tears until the next season of Stranger Things.
THANK YOU! The last few days have been pretty much “white women feelings”, like, regardless of how many of you voted for Hillary-the fact that it took her losing to make y’all wake up to the fact that America sucks is LAUGHABLE. I mean, Sandra Bland died, the Native Americans of Standing Rock aren’t getting any…
I can sum up this up like this:
...basically.
I am just disappointed and feel powerless.
I have been protesting and working year in and year out and nothing seems to be changing, just getting worse. And it feels like my voice is getting smaller and smaller and swallowed up by something I cannot put into words.
The problem isn’t a lack of diversity, it is the notion that there is only one type of racist. The left has been so intent on selling the idea that racism only comes from places where people are overwhelmingly white and poor, and that sytemic racism and bigotry does not exist. It’s easier for people to point to a poor…
I am just tired of hearing about white people’s feelings when most of them have been comfortably ignoring the injustices happening around them since...forever. Trump didn’t invent bigotry, and I guarantee by next year, most of you all will be back to sipping wine and yoga as if racism and sexism was cured by a…
That feeling of being nonwhite in America. Trump being in office is inconsequential.
I’ve been feeling this way, ever since I was born as a WOC. But, is all about white women’s feelings this week.
It would matter more if people took matters of social justice seriously YEAR ROUND, not only after election season.
Comfortable white liberal apathy is why. Too many so-called “good” people okay with doing very little. I can’t take white people seriously when it comes to social justice issues-you want to be allies, but don’t want to do the work of being an ally. And NOW you want to be outraged and protest because your lazy white…
I wonder why people haven’t been protesting more.
I mean, none of the problems that created Trump just started happening yesterday. I mean, if a black man being shot for just being black and native americans being terrorized by the US wasn’t enough for you to be outraged at how shitty the US is now, we don’t need…
