How my head hasn't exploded from reading story after story after story of this kind of mess is beyond me.
Like, you don't care to learn, you don't wanna listen, you're hurt over everything, whether it applies to you or not. What good are you to me and the other disenfranchised women out there? FFS, Google is free. FREE! Now and always has been.
I get that education has to come from conversations but this whole mess and 2016 in general has given me very little desire and patience to do so.
Same. I'm just done. If someone has a nuanced question that demonstrates prior research and they're just confused about something, yeah, I'll engage. But it has literally never been easier in the history of the world to find information and reading lists about any topic you can imagine. They have no excuse.
The march's rallying point is in my neighborhood, so this is an interesting topic. Do I need to make cookies for 100,000 or 175,000?
Facetiousness aside, I would love for more white folks to learn how to listen. At some point, we need to develop thicker skins and stop playing the "white woman's tears" square of the bingo card.
