Feedback welcome! Here's the TL;DR list

  1. Listen more to more Black people
  2. Post less – and think before you post
  3. Call in, call out, and/or report anti-Blackness when you see it
  4. Support Black people and Black-led instances and projects

Other suggestions?

I don't really understand why this is getting so massively downvoted.

Seems perfectly reasonable to me as a white person. Yes, point two could be more nuanced, but otherwise aren't all these downvotes kind of illustrating the point the OP is making here?

Indeed. Funny how that works! Glad you thought it was reasonable, and agreed that point 2 needs work.

Yeah haha, I think point 2 is well explained in the article, maybe it's too generalised here.

Still good general advice for posting in my opinion, better to think in general.
