Sometimes, we may not even be aware of racist language.
White people don’t get to define what is and isn’t offensive to other races. We must listen, learn, and change our approach. Having a friend who was willing to speak up and explain my error means a lot to me. It helps me be a better ally and builds bridges of understanding where they are lacking. And that’s how change is made.
