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?

Indeed. Funny how that works! Glad you thought it was reasonable, and agreed that point 2 needs work.

Yeah haha, I think point 2 is well explained in the article, maybe it's too generalised here.

Still good general advice for posting in my opinion, better to think in general.

I actually thought point two was the best point. Listening to the concerns is probably the best thing you could do, if you don’t think they apply to you, moving on about your day is the next best thing. Asking for proof of “anti blackness” is problem the worst thing to do.
