Dear white actor friends, Please stop tellin your non-white actor buds, “it’s great they’re looking for more minorities but now i can’t get a role, y’know?” TV is still predominantly white. Ur pretty much saying ur only shot was racism & now ur sad there’s a little less of it.

French senate has voted that no girl under the age of 18 can wear hijab in public and that no Muslim mothers in hijab can be on school field trips. An absolutely trash & fascist state.

Stop broadcasting this video of George Floyd being killed!!! There is no “news” in it at this point. It’s morbid pornography now. It’s a perpetuation of vicarious traumatization. It’s also lazy, insensitive and exploitive journalism. Anyone who wants to see it can find it!
