White organisations will hire you for your skills but then get mad when you do your job better than they expected.

been thinking a lot about black transgenerational trauma & grief. how it's an inheritance we didn't ask for & so many of us are trying our hardest not to pass on

Weaponising the police against black people is not just an American thing, it is a white supremacist thing. Read about my experience @melodymeets/my-experience-with-a-dutch-amy-cooper-nearly-put-me-in-jail-fced41f26ac2?source=friends_link&sk=3eecc19d2bf59431ee8047abe89656e2" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@melodymeets/m… #BlackLivesMatterNL #PoliceBrutality #BlackLivesMatter #EndWhiteSupremacy

This is how they perpetuate ignorance.

@Oloni Straight facts.

Being black is having to feel shame if you’re not too familiar with ONE bit of white pop culture and them making a fuss, but if we talk about any part of mainstream mainstreamm black culture and they’re unfamiliar, we’re meant to be understanding. You are not the standard man.

We need the leaders of African & Caribbean nations to condemn the continued violence against African-Americans and the entire African diaspora wherever they live. Africa, these are YOUR people they are killing! Speak up! #BlackLivesMattter

MAY THE BOYEGA BE WITH YOU #johnboyegagoesoff

Every day black people stand up to racists like #ChristianCooper quietly hoping they don't end up like #GeorgeFloyd. #BEINGBLACKISNOTACRIME

What happened to #GeorgeFloyd is what my white, racist neighbours wished happened to me. Lots of #AmyCooper types live in Europe too and they will and have weaponised the police against black people daily.
