consider this: not reblogging andrew jackson j's music because he has the privilege as a white person to throw around the last part of his stage name all he wants
but when i call my muslim friend named that in public everyone turns and stares, and when i type that word online the fbi + cia + nsa all watch me a little bit more closely than they already are
a white person does not feel scared making this arabic word — that has a beautiful meaning btw, isnt inherently violent— his stage name, but i can’t even type it on the internet without getting worried .
