Yes, I am right. Because that’s how it works. When you position yourself as a public social commentator, you invite conversation. You can turn down whoever you don’t want to engage, but you invite the approaches.

Thank you. I’m a lesbian. I don’t always want to be the voice of my people but if someone comes to me with a genuine question and they are hoping for understanding I am happy to give them my perspective. How the fuck else are we supposed to learn about other people’s lived experiences?

Because apparently white people are not allowed to ask POC questions about racial issues. They are supposed to magically glean a nuanced, deep, and 100% perfect understanding of the issues via Google because having a productive and earnest conversation with a real human is expecting too much.
