On Twitter Im Seeing Dozens Of Threads From Black Activists Warning People Against Burnout, Giving All

On twitter I’m seeing dozens of threads from Black activists warning people against burnout, giving all sorts of useful tips about preventing and managing it for the sake of a long-term, sustainable effort.

On tumblr I’m seeing a hell of a lot of young white kids yelling at anyone who actually follows those steps, and acting like burnout is a moral falling rather than a well-proven psychological phenomenon.

Be careful who you get your information from. Don’t let guilt lead you to make choices that will harm both you and the movement.

this protester from Tallahassee has been missing for a few days now and I'd really appreciate it if any of you could rb and share this. if anyone knows anything but doesn't feel comfortable calling the police number, you can send an email with the info to fsu4bernie@gmail.com

just because there aren’t as many posts of blm circulating and just because we’re slowly posting regular “aesthetic” content again it does not mean you have the right to stop educating yourself on issues that affect black people. continue to educate yourself and others, call out racism when you see it and continue to donate and sign petitions. activism that only occurs when somebody dies or something devastating happens is not proper activism, it is performative. so, just because you aren’t posting as much about blm or other issues anymore, it does NOT mean you can go back to being ignorant. continue to stay aware. keep that energy and use it and your privilege to help black people and amplify their voices. us non-black people need to recognise that choosing when to speak up or speaking up when it is big is a privilege and is ignorant and we need to fix this.

I just came up with a horrible drawing game.
