this is a reminder as to why white people need to be accomplices: https://med-mastodon.com/@luckytran/112765502618803272
marginalized people have been screaming this shit for years but have (1) privileged white person say something and all of a sudden some shit is taken seriously
i appreciate what violet is doing (especially since her parents sure aren't doing the same thing as far as we can see) and it's important but i want us to remember that for every white person who is recognized for speaking up there are countless people of marginalized identities who've been saying the same thing, longer and have been ignored if not outright violently silenced
