It is 2015 and some of you still think it’s acceptable/humorous/whatever to use the term “oreo.” Think about what you are saying when you call someone that. That their culture and community is worthless? That the best they can be is white-passing? That light skin is better? That’s disgusting. Think about your words. Think about the ideas you’re propagating with that statement.
“I will never stay silent in a world that expects me to leap out of my own ancestry to earn it’s approval. Acceptance means more than looking for a mirror inside somebody else. What makes you think the best we could be was a reflection of you?”
