“you can’t make a lawful good character interesting and enjoyable”:
Jane Elliott giving a lecture on “Color Blindness”
seeing these white people squirm gave me joy.
Mad respect to her bc she made that vid FREE instead of making ppl pay her to repeat us like Tim wise does
Jane Elliot is the definition of a true anti-racism ally.
Loved this video. I also loved when the white girl started crying and she didn’t go running to make her feel better as she had no reason to be crying any way.
new followers, welcome. watch this.
Yeah for every 5 new followers I get I lose 4 because I stay posting shit like this. They think it’s all jokes with me and it’s not. I like to have fun but it’s real for me and if you can’t accept that then begone.
this was actually really gross those people could be gay, trans queer, mentally ill, disabled in a non visible way, abused ect and have to deal with that every day as well so i think she and the school doesn’t have th right to do this shit
GAY WHITE PEOPLE CAN STILL BE RACIST
TRANS AND QUEER WHITE PEOPLE CAN STILL BE RACIST
MENTALLY ILL WHITE PEOPLE CAN STILL BE RACIST
DISABLED WHITE PEOPLE CAN STILL BE RACIST
WHITE VICTIMS OF ABUSE CAN STILL BE RACIST

“My husband had a sudden heart attack a few months ago. It was just a few blocks from here. They called me in to identify his body and then just let me walk right out onto 7th Avenue. I felt so lost. My friends were wonderful and supportive but eventually everyone moves on with their lives. I don’t have children. And I’m not a workaholic. So I was left with this intense loneliness and void. I couldn’t eat. I couldn’t sleep. Then one day I started researching dogs that are good for grief and depression. And ‘poodle’ kept popping up. But when I went to the rescue fair, all the poodles were gone. There was this one old dog in the back that nobody was looking at. She was skin and bones. She was trembling and scared and mucus was running out of her eyes. She seemed so fragile. She reminded me of myself. I named her Grace because I think my husband sent her to me. She’s my first dog. She’s been pure joy. We spend all our time together. She’s gained her weight back. She comes with me to therapy. We’re getting better together.”

anyway, my older sister was adopted when she was almost 16 (kinda on accident too), and because of that she got away from an abusive household, went from barely passing classes to being an honour student, and launching into a career where she’s happy and healthy and paying her own way. just two years of parenting where she had 3 meals a day, a bedtime, and parents to help and protect her changed her life radically. Plus, i got an older sister
adopt teenagers.
As an adopted kid I support this message
people who say things like “oh you only have a few years with them” need to remember that these are human beings not a used car. every human being deserves a support system, a jumping off block, a safe place to return
