I couldn't agree more, but I'm not suggesting that she or anybody else do nothing. I'm just not willing to blame a random woman for an entire system of racial oppresion because of the colour of her skin.

There have been white people fighting alongside black people to end racial oppression since the days of the Underground Railroad. We don't need to rely on guilt by association to encourage them to act. In fact, what that seems to do among the "woke white" is push them towards empty virtue signalling instead of real work.

My advice to Karyn was to examine herself and her actions first. That's where the work begins for people who don't have a personal stake in racism. Then she needs to talk and listen, but ultimately think for herself.

If she's in the comments of my articles asking how she can do better, she's already doing more than most. I'd rather have her working from a place of true solidarity than guilt and that means having a little faith in her.
