As a white person who follows and learns a lot from thisiswhiteprivilege, I will sometimes ask questions or attempt to clarify things for other followers who just don’t seem to get it. I have NEVER had thisiswhiteprivilege respond to me with any sort of aggressiveness.
But let me tell you, as a white person following a blog that is a space for PoC, if I ever do receive any sort of aggression from thisiswhiteprivilege, I can promise that I will have deserved it.
If I send an ask and I get a response of “fuck off,” I am going to fuck off. And then I will sit and think really fucking hard about why I received that response. And then, when I realize what stupidass thing I did, I will come back, apologize sincerely, and come away with new knowledge on how to be an ally.
So, tumblrverse, don’t sit there and fucking whine because thisiswhiteprivilege told you to fuck off, called you a cracker, or referred to you as a little shit. Think about why you got that response and get the hell over yourself.
White privilege is hard (for white people) to see, so consider this a compilation album of White Privilege's Greatest Hits. Submit your examples.
