Represent!:On White Folks and Anti-Racism
PatrickInBeijing, one of the smartest commenters on one of my favorite sites, offers up another gem for the ages. You can read the whole post here.
It’s not enough to “like” POC, or have friends, or date or even read a few books. If we are serious about dealing with race, we need to 1) listen and learn 2) begin to actively work to change the dynamic (which means a lot of different things for different folks, but be doing SOMETHING, not just “being nice”).
I seriously wanna buy this dude a beer.
