I’ve been struggling with exactly how to put this but here’s an attempt:
It is incumbent upon white people to live in an inclusive and anti-racist way.
It is not incumbent upon anyone who experiences racism and injustice to teach us how to live differently.
Artists have chosen to teach us through their work.
One of the best ways that we, as white people can educate ourselves about the vastness of human experience is through studying and financially contributing to artists and their work.
This is maybe the most important part: We need to seek out these artists and works regardless of how explicitly or implicitly they address systematic racism.
We cannot just take one seminar or read one book and call it a day.
We have to do this every day.
