#LGBTQ and #BIPOC groups and organizations have been fighting this battle for hundreds of years and are front and center now, leading the fight against the fascists. They know that their own lives and livelyhoods are on the line, as they have always been. They do not need white middle-class America to come in and "Save The Day". They just need white middle-class America to get up off its ass and DO SOMETHING.

🧵 3/3

"A common misconception about racism is that it involves a few bad apples who engage in racist thoughts and behaviours. This is not true, because imperfectly good people can commit acts of omission that allow individual racists to survive and even thrive in organizations. Imperfectly good people can also consciously or unconsciously enable systems to create and perpetuate policies and practices that work to the advantage of some groups and to the disadvantage of others."
