Anti-Blackness is a long-term problem in the fediverse. Now's a good time to start changing that.

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?

    Since this is just a draft, you should change #2 to just “think before you post”.

    It can make sense in certain circumstances, like in BLM rallies telling us white-people that it wasn’t our stage to speak makes sense, but telling people of a certain skin colour to “post less” in general is racist as fuck.
