I was gonna let this go, but fuck it.
My work brings me into contact with POC every single day. That is why this shit is so frustrating and maddening to me. Because there is absolutely no reason to be giving a WW the benefit of the doubt over 2 whole instances full of POC who are telling you over and over their lived experience. Yall wanna be "believe women" and BLM, but only when it doesnt make you uncomfortable

In 2016, I had a convo with one of my athletes about voting, and he asked me why I voted the way I did. And I told him this:
Because when a lot of white people look at Nash, they dont see a team leader, an RA on the Dean's List, and a kid who hugs me and says Thank You Miss Jen every time he comes back to campus. They see an N-word.
I think about this convo a lot in the past 4 years.

This is what white bias does. Tells POC theyre wrong/they misinterpreted/and why are you so prickly anyway.
The PV and MyAss users have every fucking right to be prickly, because you can say "im a leftist" till you're blue in the face, but if you don't support POC and give WP chance after to chance to hurt them, you're not.
You're not an ally. Youre not for racial justice or equality or any of that. Youre for yourself and your comfort.

Im so fucking angry right now at the erasure of POC queers, and as a white passing brown queer, I see who cares about the people I care about. I see who would call Tee a thug or who would call Katie lazy. These are my best friends and I would choose them every day.
Get your shit together and stop making ahit about you and your comfort. POC deserve to feel safe and valued here too. Goddamn.
