"Racism is institutional and structural and unless we’re actively interrupting this cycle of oppression, we are complicit in this system = we are racist.
Being an anti-racist ally requires proactive, deliberate action to dismantle internalized and institutional belief in the racial superiority of white people. Seeking and validating the critical feedback of people of color is crucial for imagining and creating change. Dating people of color does not bring about institutional change and using one’s personal relationships as an excuse for not examining privilege or taking on actual anti-racist work is a cop-out."
