also this needs to be said, but if youâre nonblack and you are co-opting off of the blm movement but you are shit to black people in real life, fandom, online, etc., then you are still anti-black. i say this in light of the fact that there are some people who have histories of ignoring black people and being anti-black, but when it comes to making themselves look like they care and good people, theyâll re-share hashtags, protest, posts stuff, boost voices of black activists, and thatâs good and all. but if in your current life/situation you invalidate racism black people face in their lives (whether it be irl, fandom, social media, ETC.), or go out of your way to ignore or make their lives difficult, then you are still antiblack and your activism is performative. black lives matter and that includes respecting black people who call out your racism. if youâve ever partaken in invalidating or ignoring a black personâs claim or accusations of racism, and you havenât made amends or youâve been called out for racism by a black person, or invalidated a black persons experience of racism (again, irl, social media, fandom, etc.) then you are still antiblack and you need to start working on dismanlting racism and anti-blackness with yourself before you try to co-opt on the tragedy of black people.
