I love that City of Gods explicitly states this:
"Create, don’t appropriate. The following ‘costumes’ are strictly prohibited: Native American ceremonial headdresses, Blackface, and weapons. As a general guideline, do not wear somebody else’s ethnic or racial background as a costume!"

The fact that The Kennedy Center board has historically been NOTORIOUSLY bipartisan...

Dear white people:
If a group admin/moderator and/or community leader asks you to respond to something...
...the thing NOT to do is say "thanks but no thanks" and then call an attempt at accountability "toxic". 🤨

A Happy Heavenly Birthday to Crispus Attucks.
Born on this day in 1770 and of Wampanoag and African descent, Attucks is generally remembered as the first person killed in the Boston Massacre, and so is also the first casualty of the American Revolution.
Rest in Power.

Nothing like an anti-woke post to kick off #BlackHistoryMonth in a #BurningMan facebook group.
I guess at least this person's consistent as you can see by their only other post before today.
And you know i just had to point out that the first word of their post IS a pronoun 😅

I hear someone say something behind me as I'm ready to put my things through the metal detector.
I've got ADHD so I turn around and this white woman with blonde hair is looking right at me and says again, "do you have any more of the small holders for pocket items".
