'White women, if you are going to start speaking, pause—do not take center stage immediately. Listen for the stories, struggles, suggestions and triumphs of Black women, and let the first reaction from your lips be one of support.' BlackLivesMatter
Not only is Black History Month the shortest month of the year , but Black women are regularly left out of big conversations and decisions, and their achievements are overlooked. However, white women allies can be co-conspirators to disrupt this trend—allies in ensuring Black women are equally recognized during Black History Month, Women’s History Month and every damn day of the year.
We see examples of horizontal hostility in many modern Civil Rights movements, where factions splinter off and criticize or police the work of sibling groups doing similar work for justice. Horizontal hostility is a byproduct—a symptom of a larger structure of inequality. White women need to consider how we are working with other marginalized groups including Black women, and then turn revolution and energy towards the real source of inequality: the system.
