You call yourself a feminist, but do not get the basic concepts of cultural appropriation or intersectionality. Girl, stop. It's not my job to educate you on this. It's exhausting to have to educate white people day in and day out on issues pertaining to race. You are my friend, I should feel like I can openly candidly speak to you about things that are bothering me. And yeah, I'm angry. Ignorance is infuriating and should NEVER be defended, unless the person lives under a rock. Like are you actually confused as to why I'm upset? I'm not being sensitive or emotional about racial issues. I never say you are being sensitive or emotional about gender issues, because that is wrong. Micro aggressions are real and you are not only defending them, but are engaging in them. You promote an exclusive feminism and deny people of color's experiences with racism, unless you have experienced them first hand. The problem is you will rarely face them directly, because you are a white woman. That's why it's called privilege. And no white women have not historically advocated for people of color, you might want to read up on the racist suffragette history. I love you, but you are part of the problem. It would be better to listen to your friend's experience with racism, without getting defensive. It's not ALWAYS about you. You could learn a thing or two from putting your ego aside and simply listening. Just listen.
