this is a rant-post
---------
Ever have those moments when you're gonna hang out with a poc friend or a group of poc friends and it's gonna be so awesome.... until you have that one friend (y'all know who I'm talking about) who decides at the last minute--without consulting anyone--that they're gonna invite their fucking white friend??
OMG I DO!!
I fucking H A T E when that shit happens!!
And I just know when that situation arises, it's on some untrained white shit. My white friends, or at least mutual white friends of my poc friends, fucking KNOW BETTER. My white friends fucking KNOW that they do not show up at poc hangouts unless they know every poc at the hangout. And shit, even if they do, they STILL know that we will be justfine without their white asses joining in.
Aiight, but let's talk about those poc friends who pull this shit.
WHAT THE FUCK THO?! Can't we have anything? Not one goddamned thing? Not even three hours to hangout in a poc space and build community? Not even 180 white-free minutes?
I mean, g a w d we live in the Pacific Northwest!! White people are crawling around here like roaches on a compost pile in Southern Florida in August. We sing, we dance, we put on those smiles, we wipe away white tears for white folks all the time.
The assault is so real. It's literally killing us.
And now we can't even eat in peace!!
This type of shit makes me re-evaluate relationships. And then when I bring it up, I'm the angry Black person.
shiiiit.....
