Apparently I just like to rehome bags of lettuce until they rot in my fridge instead of the shelf at the grocery store

This is a trip of a lifetime since neither of my parents drink much and my mom pulls my own sleeping-to-ignore-obligations trick on me #getlitwithdad

I say this & all my statements about white people fully aware I’m white. But white people are historically THE WORST EVER and that doesn’t even begin to cover it so I think whites start holding whites accountable which is for some stupid reason a bonkers idea to some white people

[Sara Schoenthaler @sara_schoen]

I’m really sick of seeing white people mask why they’re not openly supporting BLM with big words and confusing statements. Elevating your speech because you think it masks your racism doesn’t work. If you’re not clear on where you stand, it’s racism.

David McAtee, the owner of Yaya's BBQ in Louisville, was shot and killed by police and National Guard on Monday.

He is remembered as a "community pillar."

"He fed everybody," his nephew said. "Fed everybody, even the people that killed him. For free."

George Floyd and I were both arrested for allegedly spending a counterfeit $20 bill. For George Floyd, a man my age, with two kids, it was a death sentence. For me, it is a story I sometimes tell at parties. That, my friends, is White privilege.

[Sara Schoenthaler @sara_schoen]

How about we start calling out racism, homophobia, sexism, etc in the people you think you know and love and see what happens. The people who respect you more than their horrific attitudes will listen and learn. Those who don’t, won’t. There’s no room for that bull

Your reminder that tear gas is a chemical weapon banned in war.

The Vanishing Half by Brit Bennett is currently being sent my way

Hey fellow white people who need to unlearn racism (all white people have benefitted from racism. We have to unlearn it. If you disagree, use your privilege to not think about racism while Black people have to face it every day) here’s some books I’m reading or planning to read:

[Sara Schoenthaler @sara_schoen]

I hope this helps someone. I want to keep adding to it as I find good additions. I know I’ll never understand what it’s like to be Black in America but I hope I can help more white people become anti-racist, stand with the Black community, and promote Black voices
