When another person, a queer Black woman, came in and left a big block of text stating that it was perfectly within her right to tell people to Google It, and how I was apparently devaluing intracommunity work by stating that it is an organizer’s job to educate, I stated the following:
Everyone cannot be an organizer. Fine. But please, do not politicize your laziness and comfort.
Her response?
Did you just call me lazy? Did you not hear me say that I am a queer Black woman….
What conversation is there to be had around that? It is as if the mere existence of her identity inoculates her from any critique. How did we get here?
