Hey Pandas! There’s Been A Lot Of Racism In The World Lately. How Can We Be Better? (Read Description,please.)

I know that as I white person these days, I feel pretty guilty and I want to know how to feel like I’m doing more to help the BLM movement and be less unconsciously racist. Anybody in the community, please ask questions on how we can be anti-racist, and, please, if anyone feels comfortable enough, feel free to answer our questions! it’s greatly appreciated. Also, if this post seems offensive to anyone, don’t hesitate to let me know! I’m not trying to come off as such, and I’m sorry if I do. :)

I'm a Hippie from Oregon who likes spiritual shit, wearing hoodies, and not giving a fuck. I love nature, but I hate hiking in it with other people, and I think the most beautiful thing is the night sky. I also like true crime, spongebob, fresh prince and eating food in general.

"As a white person, these days I feel pretty guilty." I would suggest that you stop feeling guilty for being born the way you are. Your skin is not a crime and you are not a criminal for being unapologetically you.

I think that if people want to be better, don't be a tronald dump supporter.

Well, all political parties have different views, but Biden supports the BLM and the LGBTQIA+. So the best suggestion is to believe what u believe in. Trump doesn't support the BLM or LGBTQIA+, but Biden does.

Although Truth Monster makes a valid point that it isn't you fault you were born into white privilege, you still benefit from it (also without your consent). Part of "being unapologetically you" is being aware of how you benefit from racial inequities. So start by learning what it means to be racist and antiracist. https://fourminutebooks.com/how-to-be-an-antiracist-summary/ is an easy way to start. Also learn more about white privilege and how you benefit from it. Finally, learn ways to leverage that privilege into greater social and racial equity. Black acquaintances or the NAACP may have helpful suggestions.
