4 things white people can do to start making the fediverse less toxic for Black people (DRAFT!) - Blåhaj Lemmy

Feedback welcome! Here’s the TL;DR list 1. Listen more to more Black people 2. Post less – and think before you post 3. Call in, call out, and/or report anti-Blackness when you see it 4. Support Black people and Black-led instances and projects Other suggestions?

Have you seen a lot of racism towards black people on the fediverse? Why are you spamming this everywhere? It doesnt make much sense telling people not to post on a platform that needs it more than anything.

replying to your questions/points in order of appearance: yes; go to hell; get in the sea.

No on god I agree with sanctus. I’m a triple minority and I have not seen any bigotry on the fediverse.

just because you don’t see it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist

it might mean your mods do a great job, it might be that you don’t hang out in communities that draw chuds, it might be any many more things! it definitely means you don’t see the whole fedi at once.

but this shit does still exist

So where is it? I haven’t seen it either.

This post fits the classic pattern of trying to stir up racial tension by claiming there’s racism where there isn’t.

Unlelss of course you can provide some … evidence that it exists?
