As a white woman I'm aware that black people experience prejudice and racism most days of their lives. We're ALL prejudice whether we like it or not, the point is how white people need to stop, accept and recognise racism at every point.
Ignoring the odd 'joke' means we're colluding, we're saying 'haha, I know you didn't really mean it'. No, that's not how it works, laughing cos you're embarrassed simply adds to bigotry becoming the norm.
We need to stop thinking we'll be judged as being 'politically correct'

People talk about benefit scroungers and disabled people not contributing to society. Here's my take.
I wasn't born disabled but I am now impaired whereby the social and physical structure of society results in my physical & mental impairments being that I'm now Dis-abled by YOU.
Surprised by that? Yes, not all of you obviously, but by those of you who create material structures that prevent me from accessing basic things that non disabled people are privy to every day of the week.
The language some of you use to refer to us has a detrimental effect.
