You wanna know how you can help others without coming off like a white savior?
- Make sure they want your help by, you know, asking
- Remember that they probably need your help because of systems of oppression that you still currently benefit from and you giving back is more like you paying your due, instead of you doing something novel and awesome
- Remember that it’s possible to be a racist shitstain and do good actions. People do it all the time.
- Research exactly how any money you give is being truly spent. Intentions alone don’t help anyone. Non-profits are required to give that information away, anyway.
- Realize that if you are paid to help people…you’re being paid. There is an incentive. Just because you help people at the same time does not mean you did not accept an incentive for doing so, and people are not required to truly believe in your help, even if YOU do.
- Don’t hold it over people’s heads
- Don’t hold it over people’s heads
- Don’t hold it over people’s heads
- Don’t hold it over people’s heads
- Don’t use it as ammunition against others
- Don’t use it as ammunition against others
- Don’t use it as ammunition against others
- Don’t use it as ammunition against others
Helping is great. But what you really need to do is also assist in changing the system by realizing that the way you help can be just as important as the type of help you provide.
