Black Perspectives

[PatricksRum]

We finally got our shiny new section!

Welcome everyone.

I thought we could start by adding a few "rules."

• No asking others to justify their experiences.

• No tone policing

• No unfounded racism accusations. Sharing our perspectives is different to being racist

• No excusing racism

• No whataboutery

Feel free to add more

Well done for getting this new section PatricksRum. I look forward to posting on here.
