wtfwhiteprivilege:
I deal with a lot of non-black people.
A lot of Blacks working in corporate or other professional fields do too.
It’s not a complaint… I’m just stating my reality. But there’s something that happens when you deal with a lot of non-Blacks and then jump back into Black surroundings. I make references that I know other Negroes will have a much higher chance of...
