Feedback welcome! Here’s the TL;DR list
- Listen more to more Black people
- Post less – and think before you post
- Call in, call out, and/or report anti-Blackness when you see it
- Support Black people and Black-led instances and projects
Other suggestions?
where precisely do you imagine you found the rule that they’re not allowed to post their own blog?

Sharing your own work is fine.
