    (I know some of y’all don’t use that word, but, “literally my job as a […line?]” didn’t really work.)

      It’s fucking hard though. Hearing people repeat words that oppress throws me off my game. idk how it wouldn’t, since this matters to me.

        So anyway this isn’t just to whine about words-are-hard, but fellow white people, how to do stay calm when talking about racial justice?

          That time I didn’t just yell “READ A BOOK” at someone. I’m very proud of myself.
