I am willing to bet you haven't had many "minority" friends. I have shown this page and the last dozen or so posts to my black and hispanic friends and they all have laughed. Laughed much harder than I have. One of them was quoted as saying "Man, white girls are crazy! They take this race shit to a whole new level!" (black guy saying that). As well, I leave you with a quote: "If you want to end racism, stop talking about it." -Morgan Freeman

What I am betting is that most of the members of your family are not POC (like mine are) because then you would be cut to the core thinking about how your 10-year-old cousin says things like “I can’t go there, I’m Mexican. That’s for white people."

If you spend anytime at all exploring the links I provide, you can read posts by POC talking about the internalized racism in their communities. You will also see that exact Morgan Freeman quote dismantled…..by other black people. In fact, 95% of the posts I reblog about race are written by POC, so there are, in fact, people who are writing about how they have been subject to racism, and that exists whether your friends recognize it or not.

Just like, maybe your mom has never been harassed, but I can’t walk down the street without getting grabbed. Just because she thinks she hasn’t dealt with sexism, doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.

And your friend would be wrong - most white girls, most white people at all, don’t have any awareness of racial issues - you are obviously one of them.

And if your friend wants to call me crazy for caring about and listening to my POC family, and the POC friends and lovers who have changed my life over the years, I suggest you find better friends. Because that’s all I am doing here. I am listening, and I am trying to make myself a vehicle for less privileged voices. I don’t make up the shit I post on this blog.

Not to mention, you kept sending me complimentary messages saying you think you know what my okc profile is? You sent messages praising this blog (which I was apparently right to side-eye), and I don’t respond to your woos, so you send this? Abusive move 101.

Not surprising that a white, straight, American man would have no sense of compassion for those whose voices challenge the status quo that privileges him.

Not surprising that you could not leave me alone after I no longer had any interest in talking to you on OkC, and so you come here to stalk this blog, (and my personal blog) and apparently be so upset by it that you had to show your friends.

You are a small, small little man.

Be gone.
