@aurabogado We're afraid to own up to the fact that we too, like white people, have drunk the White Supremacy kool aid and internalized it. -
@NerdyHBIC@aurabogado Yes but#Blacks have drank SAME#WhiteSupremacy kool aid about Non-Black POC so.. no need to feel bad/shamed#Talk -
@Zemrag7@aurabogado So true, there's plenty of self-hating people in Black and Non-Black PoC communities.

@aurabogado For me it was fear of being disliked once Black ppl found out I had racist thoughts. As if they didn't already know that ab me. -
@aurabogado And the misunderstanding that admitting to my problem was in itself an act of racism.
