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?

    Yeah, the section on “Listen more to Black people” didn’t really cover the challenges on Lemmy. I added this:

    If you’re on a platform like Lemmy which doesn’t yet have similar hubs, it’s more challenging. One option is to use other social networks, news aggregators, and search engines to find articles, papers, and videos by Black people – and post them yourself to help others listen.

    How’s that?
