Dear White People...
Dear White People...
Here's some things you should know.
Not only is the new Dear White People Netflix series hilarious, but it’s full of major keys. In fact, it inspired us to come up with our own list of things we feel white people need to know, and questions that personally, we are tired of answering.
-
No, all Black people do not know each other
Please don't play the name game with me because you knew someone Black somewhere once.
-
No, you will never 'be as tan as me' in the summer
Because if you actually had brown skin, that would mean losing all your privilege, honey.
-
This is a weave, boo. No, it did not grow over the weekend.
Oh, is it only cute when Kylie does it?
-
No, you cannot touch it
Still no.
-
Yes, my butt is real
OK fine, this depends on who you ask.
-
No, you can’t touch that either
Deff no butt stuff though.
-
-
Yes, I have to use sunscreen, too
Guess what? UV rays are universally dangerous.
-
These are cornrows, not 'boxer braids,' smh
And let's just agree that if you think this is a trend, you should skip it all together.
-
Don’t flip your hair in my face. It’s rude af.
Since you won't like it if I do it when I have 30 inches of Remy magic.
-
-
Reverse racism is not a thing
Please Lord, don't let us have to explain this again.
-
Saying you’re colorblind just means you are great at ignoring my existence
Acknowledging a difference does not make you racist.
-
No, I don’t speak for all Black people
Just like Donald Trump doesn't speak for you (at least we hope).
-
-
Timberlands are not a new trend
Ask literally anyone.
-
No one cares about your so-called dreads
But we guess you can live.
-
No matter how much you curl and tease your hair, you cannot have an Afro
Don't try it.
-
-
Rachel Dolezal is your homegirl, not mine
Take her back, ASAP.
-
No one wants to see you 'twerk'
Just, no.
-
Could you please stop ruining our words?
And we are going to need: fly, shook and lit.
-
-
Dating someone Black does not make you Black
Also, people are not trophies.
-
No, you may not shorten my name to make it easier on yourself
I said what I said.
-
It’s not my job to educate you on the impact of White supremacy
Educate your damn self.
-
-
No, you cannot say the n-word, ever. No exceptions.
It is never acceptable.
