4 things white people can do to start making the fediverse less toxic for Black people (DRAFT!) - eviltoast

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’m not too sure I understand why point #2’s title is “post less - and think before you post”, even in the article itself. The paragraph pretty specifically talks about restraining ourselves on talking about anti-blackness as non-blacks, and doesn’t say a single word about quantity of posts.

      Thanks, agreed that section heading is somwhat ouf of sync with the text. For now I might change it to “Post less about anti-Blackness …”, and will possibly make a bigger change when I revise
