Us white folks have a real problem with false equivalency. Stacey not getting her order in a timely manner is not the same as police brutality and injustice.

But Stacey is making a video about the former. Stacey is centering herself in the wrong fucking conversation. https://twitter.com/tkag2020_ann/status/1273075677454098436
Sure, Stacey probably feels bad.

BUT your personal feelings aren’t valid critiques. They’re just your feelings.

And the irony of asking everyone to care about your feelings when you’re not even questioning why some communities would mistrust and fear cops. Bold. Very White.
Also bold and Very White when we insist that the pushback against injustice change itself to make us comfortable.

Instead of thinking, “hey maybe we should change the fucked up thing that’s causing harm. Maybe we would change the thing that’s causing injustice.”
