When BIPOC give this sort of #antiracist info, these are often starting points. The goal is to get wyte ppl/accomplices/allies to do the work on their own. Don't do this:pic.twitter.com/5XkZUzYvZK

Continuously requesting free labor and exhausting our time is a no no. Don't do this and then get defensive when we tell you to do the work of educating yourself. We aren't here to spoon-feed you . . . but apparently that won't stop some ppl from being vampires.pic.twitter.com/5wohmO99gy
Don't invoke MLK around Black and Brown people. That's tacky and ignorant.pic.twitter.com/vmnk5PWVMh
This person claims to be an "ally" and after reading something that literally told them what NOT to do, they did it anyway.pic.twitter.com/wJ6m8lwiG1
Also don't tell BIPOC you know more than them and don't assume that you know more than the people they trust. If this person was any sort of ally they wouldn't have responded the way they did. So, the lesson is don't be like Sylvia, although she provided great learning material.pic.twitter.com/N6K1I5RJfe
She needed the last word and she knows more about racism because she's 7 parts removed from MLK from her cousin's wife's uncle's roomate's bff. Seriously though, it's okay to ask questions but seriously do some work yourself & don't be a fake ally like this Sylvia here.pic.twitter.com/f2XZ3AL7Nd
OH this is incredible. I mean I argue the same thing but he comes up with the numbers far quicker and easier than I do . . . this is why I have a PhD in English, I guess. I'm gonna favorite this.
So helpful. Thank you!
