When white folx ask me “what are the greatest barriers they must overcome in order to truly develop a consistent, DEMONSTRATED antiracist practice”, my response is ALWAYS some form of the following:

1. Y’all have to internalize that your presence AND/OR absence, in any situation, ignites systems, institutions, and policies ROOTED in white supremacy AND anti-Blackness on your behalf AND against “others”

As you might have seen from the last boost, there's an unofficial reminder bot by @atasfun available on here at:

➡️ @remindme

It can remind you about a post in a few minutes, hours, days, weeks, months or years later.

To use it, mention the bot and then the time you want to be reminded (for example "1 week").

If you want the reminder to be private, include the phrase "dm" as well. If you do that, the bot will send you your reminder by a private mentions post.

(Thanks to @j3j5 for info!)

It’s often said that #writers can be organized into three broad categories:

• Pantsers, who write by the seat of their pants
• Planners, who work it all out in advance
• Plantsers, who combine these approaches in some way

And maybe there’s a secret fourth thing? Anyway, poll! What kind of writer are you?

(Please boost for reach! And if you’re not a writer, please sit this one out.)
