To my darling girls,
Some of my White Facebook friends ask what they can do to assist in the struggle for racial equality and justice.
This is what I tell them:
- Call out your racist family members and friends when they spew their hatred
- Expose your racist social media friends and use screen shots to make their racist posts go viral
- Make your friends of color aware of the racists in their circle (many racists find it easy to “skin and grin” with people of color; let us know who they are)
- Advocate for people of color at work
If your White friends are not willing to advocate for you and other people of color, you have no business being friends with them. What would be the point?
Much love to you,
Auntie
