Cinco de Mayo puts me in a mood. Ignorant white people have turned it into racist Halloween targeted specifically at Mexico. Here in Seattle we get the Cinco de Mayo fun run where "costumes aren’t just okay, they’re encouraged." 😠 If you're not Mexican or Mexican American and want to celebrate #CincoDeMayo today, please do it respectfully and without taking up too much space at a community event like @elcentro72's: elcentrodelaraza.org/events/event/c…

If you're considering buying @sallykohn's new book "The Opposite of Hate" pls first read @IjeomaOluo's and @aminatou's comments about how quotes attributed to them were distorted, decontextualized, and invented. Kohn has shown 0 accountability but is reaping the benefits anyway.
