I genuinely love you. I have family who are white. My roommate is white. Young adults I’ve mentored are white. Hell, my ex husband is white.
But please, please enter into spaces that are not your spaces with curiosity and listening ears and hearts.
Black culture, Black people, Black institutions are not yours to critique, especially if you are doing so with little knowledge, respect, and from a distance.

This was not funny. All I see is a young woman being touched by someone she did not give permission to, unable to pitvsoace between her and the other person, and then being embarrassed. This is shameful.
Notice her body language. She is leaning back from the waist. And she tried to step down. He kept her arm around her waist. This makes me so damn uncomfortable. And angry.
