Read, reblog, and resonate!
Quick reminder that you shouldn’t be requesting our using symbols or emojis or “slang words” that are AAVE, especially if you didn’t grow up in a black community.
The black community’s culture is actively being stolen from us everyday despite still facing heavy racism, this includes our words, such as AAVE, which we have faced enormous backlash from non-black creators when it comes to asking people to limit their usage of it
As one of few black aac and emoji creators we have seen a lot of ignorance and racism within the community, therefore i highly recommend listening to your local POC individuals when they tell you to stop doing, saying or using something
Please do your own research and respect other cultures.
Thank you,
