I have to leave out a lot to fit these stories into 3 minutes, but I’m writing a book about it. If you’d like to support the project, check the link in my bio to make a donation or buy some art. Find me by putting my username in your search bar.
Quick Take
White people have long been rewarded for adopting Black culture while maintaining systems that deny Black people equality. Admiration without solidarity protects privilege.
