Yes all this! Plus the two White leads could have stood up for them. Cast of TV show Friends famously did this - but they were all White.

Yes. Need to stop patting themselves on the back for being fair minded non-racists. Stand up with us, not stand behind us

YES! Much of what people think/say about allies is the bare minimum of being a decent person. "Not racist" is not an achievement.

This is why we're still having the same issues. WP think things are better b/c they're more enlightened. Truth is POC activists made changes
