i got a message which surprised me initially, then made perfect sense.
the message was, that it isn’t about taking up a cause on behalf of another culture or race.
that is a continuation of the thinking, that as a white person, i know best what’s in the best good of another culture or race.
i don’t.
in this lifetime i only know, how to be white.
but there are many variations of “being white”.
my responsibility is to become the best version of “being white” that i can, while also cheering on others to become the best version of their particular color or culture as they can be.
then we have only best versions of every color and culture.
