I just love it when assimilated BIPOC people explain other people's culture and history to them - so damn white of them.

People do the same shit to North American #Native #Indigenous people. Explaining their culture and history to them, cherry picking time, events, terminology etc. etc. to rationalize anti-Indigenous behavior.

People of all stripes need to check themselves.

Would I explain Black culture and history to a Black person if I'm not Black?
Would I explain Mexican culture and history to a Mexican person if I am not Mexican?
And so on...

Why would you explain North American Native Indigenous culture and history to a North American Native Indigenous person or likewise why would you explain Middle Eastern culture and history to a person with Middle Eastern heritage?
