#RealTalk 🗣The #NFL deciding to play the Black national anthem is a clear example of “doing too much” in the “name of change” while literally NOT doing anything at all! 😑Y’all. This. Aint. It. #BlackOutSpeakOut #WeAreNotConfused #BreonnaTaylor still needs justice. #theweedhead

Allies, please STOP saying you “don’t see color”. 🤦🏾‍♀️How on earth can we move from a starkly white palette to a rainbow of colors without deliberate & purposeful strokes of color? How can you do that blindly? Newsflash 💁🏾‍♀️You can’t. #theweedhead #blackout #blackoutspeakout #BLM

I’ve used my privilege to hire qualified minorities to create world-class comics. Now that I know U.S. leadership has no intention to fight for what’s right, I’ll use my privilege to help elect new leaders and continue elevating repressed voices. #BlackOutSpeakOut #blackoutday

Got a chance to speak up for #BlackLivesMatter protests at the dentist, and was heartened when an elderly woman in the next stall asked me to airdrop her a reading list. A small moment of hope. #BlackOutSpeakOut

@KayOyegun @TheGordonFdn #BlackOutSpeakOut 3) I’ll use my privilege only retweet POC posts this week, follow and promote POC on social media going forward, find some ways to help financially, and get to a local protest to start

@KayOyegun @TheGordonFdn #BlackOutSpeakOut 2) Now that I know about my privilege and its negative impact on other people I will focus on scaling back what I get from privilege by spending more time promoting POC in science and life in general

@KayOyegun @TheGordonFdn #BlackOutSpeakOut 1) I’ve used my privilege in the past to get a good job in a safe small town and have a middle class life...without really understanding how my privilege got me here...

@COgbaugo @delaneypv15 @avivianojimadu YES! Do this. Keep doing this. Post info and resources without the BLM hashtag. Allies use #BlackOutSpeakOut Share how you recognize privilege & use it to help Black/Brown ppl. Or how to be anti-racist. Or repost links to bail and local health funds. Donate/ask network for match.

I’ll use my privilege to actively be an anti-racist. To actively donate to organizations who deserve funding. To actively learn the history of systematic racism & to actively change policy in America. #BlackOutSpeakOut

1. I’ve used my privilege to go where I want without being scared of cops. 2. Now that I know I’m a product of a system built by whites to keep the white status quo 3. I’ll use my privilege to amplify black voices, artists, and speak out against racism. #blackoutspeakout

And from our hearts to our voices, our hands, our wallets, our ballots. Say clearly and without ambiguity that Black Lives Matter. And let's recast our privilege that is today a tool of oppression and offer it to this fight as a tool of resistance and justice #BlackoutSpeakOut
