Okay I’ve been getting a lot of questions about this
So I guess I’ll just answer this now even though it’s supposed to be a secret from white people. But learning about this could probably help white people a lot so here we go.

Why White Pride is a Problem →
racismschool:
We’ve spoken about this before but I may not have been as detailed as I should have been. I continue to get questions asking why it’s wrong to have white pride.
There are two main reasons. The first, I believe, is the most important. Pride in your heritage and having white pride are not and never truly will be seen as the same thing. Having “Irish Pride” is not the same as having...

Do American Indians Celebrate Thanksgiving? -... →
adailyriot:
In thinking about my earliest memories of elementary school, I remember being asked to bring a brown paper sack to class so that it could be decorated and worn as part of the Indian costume used to celebrate Thanksgiving. I was also instructed to make a less-than-authentic headband with Indian designs and feathers to complete this outfit. Looking back, I now know this was wrong.

6 Ways to Talk to Your Son About Male Violence and... →
Boys as young as 4 year old are told to “be a man!”, usually in response to them crying or showing fear.
And as they grow up, they’re bombarded with messages that say to be a “manly” man, they need to:

The prison population grew by 700 percent from 1970 to 2005, a rate that is outpacing crime and population rates. The incarceration rates disproportionately impact men of color: 1 in every 15 African American men and 1 in every 36 Hispanic men are...

I feel terrible doing this because some people out there need donations and things to survive, but I was crunching the numbers today, and if I don’t ask for help, it’s not going to happen. I recently got accepted into a 4-year college to start next semester. They even offered me a transfer scholarship and everything.
The issue is that before I can even get started on getting all my...
