Dear White Friends: Stop Saying Everything Is Going To Be Ok

Dear White Friends: Stop Saying Everything Is Going To Be Ok

Last night, America made an important decision that has a lot of people feeling emotional today. People are mourning in different ways. One common message I've heard from my white friends is that everything is going to be okay. I know they mean well and that saying this is a way of coping for them, but everything is not okay.

    This hits home. My white guy friend was complaining about how everyone was being overdramatic and that nothing will change. 😒

    jesus that comment section.

    "Liberals said mean things so America voted Trump."

      I can’t believe it. They love to go on and on about personal responsibility, but they voted for a fascist and blame it on progressives.

    "Well it'll definitely be interesting, I'm just along for the ride!" -Straight white men with nothing to lose.

    White people being condescending to the concerns of minority people? 😮

    Nah, that'll never happen. Besides we're all liberals here right? 😎

    Funnily enough this has been the reverse with my SO and I. I'm much more worried about things than she is. But then again, maybe as a POC she's just used to this shit?

    I never said everything is going to be okay.

    I think the way we progressives react in the coming months could be used to emboldened the right to take more extreme actions against protestors.

    • SmoccaNov 12, 2016 at 6:16 PM

      I don't think we should curb our behavior out of the fear of injustice.

      Protesting is legal and healthy. Dissent is legal and healthy. Association is legal and healthy.

        If we can find a way to protect the first amendment like the gun nuts protect the second, I'm with you. I have noticed that the right sees protests the turn violent lie we see mass shootings.

        Keep your phones charged, livestream as much as possible, and don't do anything to feel the deplorables. This is a dire time for our country and I do worry that our rights will either be challenged by the police or vigilante entrapment.
