"Relatedly, we white people have got to step up and own the truth that Trump is our problem. There is no way to shirk the blame anymore."
Yeah. And I am not sure how to pierce that one--- and I do not have the good fortune to live in an anti-racist circle at least in my wider community. And some of it frankly is making choices about my personal safety in the moment, with a given person--- and also how much of an effect my words will actually have, any more than theirs would have had on me. And on the flip side, looking for alternative avenues for activism--- well, I'm trying to get a collection of links/discussions of ways to Do Activism While Neurodivergent/Non-Normatively-Abled/Introverted going here (link is definitely for signal-boosting; right now we need to get the collection going at all, really, but I'm hoping to get the idea rolling, if not in the post itself then at least more generally.)
