I want to be happy here.
But my Black friends keep getting banned for doing justice work.
Or just... Existing.
At a much quieter volume than I do.
If people didn’t know me or who I’m connected to, would I be gone by now too? ?
How do you exist in a world where your cultural norm is frowned upon?
Why do I always have to compromise with the oppression dynamic
or get removed? ?
It’s painful.
And there’s no reason to it.
And all the “solutions” include bowing to that same dynamic.
