The funniest thing about this agenda from white queers about black cishets is like. What’s the point. Do you think white cishet people are on your side more than black cishets are?????? 😭😭😭😭 Genuinely their only motivation gotta be getting to be antiblack and not feeling bad

I can’t believe some of yall are missing the point in the QRTS. This person is coining a new term so that nb people can enjoy black WLW/MLM without saying the nigga and your first thought is to question it

I need ALL of u nbs to listen up very closely and carefully. “Amerikkka” and “woke” are specifically terms that should ONLYYYY be used to described antiblack injustices. “Amerikkka” is a VERY obvious reference to how America itself is and always has been built on Klan ideology…

I don’t really listen to gay men on here talking about actors not being “hot” enough for roles because the beauty standard in the community is literally just white muscle gays

Normani was 16 years old dealing with racism while in Fifth Harmony.
Caleb McLaughlin was 14 years old dealing with racism while on Stranger Things.
Leah Jeffries was 12 years old dealing with racism on Percy Jackson and the Olympians.
Black children are never too young to suffer on the job, so you’re never too young to have some wisdom about racism in the entertainment industry.

Hey so anti blackness is universal which means the othering of darkskin is universal, so colorism is an issue is every single non white community. Deducing it the black community is why ppl think yall dont have the tools to even have the conversation in the first place

Race most definitely plays a role in how you have to approach content creation.
If black creators had the same opportunities as other creators and were put on equal playing fields as other creators, we wouldn’t need to make our own award shows, showcases, groups, events, communities to be given a fighting chance.
We are constantly insulted, made fun of, whitewashed, ignored, and hated. Every day, we have to learn how to navigate the world of content creating while not giving up who we are and what we represent.

Systemic racism exists in more ways then one. black people have to do more and work harder just to get close to the same opportunities as everyone else. And even when youre at the top youll still get tested. Thats a proven fact. Thats all I gotta say about it.

race doesn't determine one's skill set or potential but it definitely impacts your opportunities and abilities to pursue things. and acting like that isn't true is just overlooking a lot of barriers that exist for POC and especially black people. what an insane take
