I think they feel frustrated that you seem unwilling to trust POC voices as those best suited to describing structural racism.

I think they feel frustrated because I'm white so they don't think I have anything meaningful to offer. Not due to my brain, but my skin.

I'm white and I have never once been blocked for asking a POC about racism. It's because of how you're asking, and not accepting their reply

How am I asking? If you read this whole thread, which is difficult, you'll find me being perfectly cordial and them not doing that.

You're challenging their authority on what is and isn't racism. No matter how politely you do that, it's an attack.

No, it's not. And I'm challenging them on how to defeat racism.

Again, you have no expertise in this area. Your expertise is on how a white person can convince white ppl to abandon racism. That's great!

But you can't tell POC not to be angry, or hostile, or how to better cope with racism. Bc you don't live it & you don't know what it's like
