Has your definition of “racism” changed over the years? Mine has. It’s not enough to “not be a racist”: we must be anti-racists.
@maryrarick There is no neutral with racism. #antiracist #blacklivesmatter #riseup #dontagonizeorganize #momsoftiktok #votersuppression #vote #greenscreensticker
White folks, this one’s for you.
@maryrarick It means we have to step into discomfort. I’m here for it. #wytprivilege #wytwomen #wytprivilege #privilege #privilegecheck
My intentions aren’t important. What’s important is that I’ve learned something, and I’m apologizing, because that’s what you do when you’ve done something wrong.
@maryrarick I’m going to keep learning and figuring it out and doing better. #workinprogress #risesisterrise #antiracist #wytwomen
Talking about racism is exhausting. I agree. But the truth is that I get to choose when to step into the arena. There’s a certain privilege in that. Here’s why I continue to show up.
@maryrarick Replying to @khalilove12 Why do you continue to speak up? #ww #wyt #whitepeople #whitegirl #whitewomen #speakup #whiteprivilege #privilege #checkyourself #blm #blackwomen #blackwomenappreciation
In short, I speak up because it’s my duty and privilege to do so. Will you join me?
