If I see one more All lives matter comment under a black lives matter post I might have to quit social media. Just do some fucking research on the blm movement before commenting on it thanks.
#BlackLivesMatter
“There comes a time when silence is a betrayal” -Martin Luther King
Being not racist isn’t enough anymore, being not racist should be the expected, it’s called being a decent human being. Black people need ally’s as we can’t except them to fix a problem they are not even responsible for creating. Staying silent whilst black people are murdered makes you apart of the problem.
Being an ally doesn’t equal just not being racist, being an ally to the movement means actively using your voice and actions to create a change. How can you do this? You can donate or sign and share petitions. If you don’t have money but want to help you can watch Zoe Amira’s video on YouTube, all the ad revenue will go to #BlackLivesMatter.
If like me you are white, then you are privileged, we have unfairly been given a head start in life. Instead of trying to act like you don’t have white privileged, accept the fact that you do and then use it to fight for equality so that one day all races will have an equal amount of privilege.
@Nosleepforweeks same here I just keep overthinking, my anxiety is getting worse and it feels like the progress I was making in the past year is fading...
