i keep seeing white people on my dash pulling this shit, so let’s just get this in the open: 

  • stop making this about the hunger games
  • stop making this about v for vendetta
  • stop making this about les mis
  • stop making this about any other fictional allegorical oppression story

stop making this about white narratives focused on white people made by white people when this is about the dehumanisation of black lives happening in real life. 

in addition to this: 

  • stop reblogging to kill a mockingbird quotes
  • stop making this about Steve Rogers oh my fucking god
  • this is about THINGS THAT ARE ACTUALLY HAPPENING, this is not about what kind of fictional utopian America that you think he should represent.
  • Stop using white narratives for black struggles; those stories are not made by black people, they are not about black people and putting them front and centre in a conversation about anti-black racism is gross as all hell, whether you’re white or non-black POC. 
  • use quotes by ACTUAL BLACK PEOPLE INSTEAD. 
  • this goes to white people and as well as fellow non-black POC. 
  • do i really have to fucking say this.
