But until then they will be at each other’s throats

Tbh, If you aren’t Black or Asian then I don’t think it’s fully appropriate to comment on like, any of this, especially even mentioning “the being at each others throats,” part if I’m being honest, like. Black ppl as a whole don’t really have much of an issue with anyone else, it’s usually just the other way around really and for the most part, we accept everyone (sometimes to a fault,) into our space and culture. Just as long as it’s not appropriative or making fun of us then it’s like, what can you do? There will always be conversations needed to be had in order to build some kind of common ground between poc but yeah.

#black ppl can’t stop non blacks from getting locks and using a blaccent/aave or this and that but hey what can you do #rambling #tkf replies #I don’t want be put on the spot to talk about race stuff like this tbh it’s a bit 😭#anonymous #the video itself was whatever like I’ll roll my eyes because the dude probably wanted locks because he thinks black ppl look cool or he #might listen to like chief keef or whatever tf but it’s whatver like at this point my bare minimum for cultural appropriation of black folk #is to at least talk to black ppl (like do these ppl ever have any black friends or ppl they hang around before they do all of this….. not #really so it’s a bit…. odd most of the time but whatever)#they watch a few rap videos and think that is how every black person in the world must be #like just as long as they aren’t saying the n word and using aave then I can look the other way I guess I don’t have the energy #to focus on stuff like then otherwise #it’s already a hopeless and losing battle at this point but just as long as other ppl remember that black people aren’t just their silly #little makeup and fashion trend that they can slap on at any moment when they want to look cool #and that we are people with a vast amount of culture that should be respected than alright #I learned in the comments of that post that there is also a huge chicano subculture in Jp as well #the Japanese girls dress up as latina’s and everyone’s obsessed with lowriders so that’s something #that’s…. something………#regardless of how it starts it’s always nice to see people want to learn about how other people live #their lives their culture their everything #the world can be reset tomorrow and I bet you 1 million bucks that after a couple of millions of years #there would still be cultures shared and expanded upon between ppl wanting to learn grow love and share are innate to us as humans
