Recognizing The Ally Cycle

Dependable as Snow Drops in Springtime, "allies" really show up for the tittilation of trauma.

White people need to see Blackness traumatized. Even watching TV casually, notice how much screen time is allocated to the traumatizing Black bodies, versus the quick cutaways afforded White characters.

White women, especially, feed off of the drama and power of Black women.

The cycle is always the same.

Tragic event.
Disbelief. Crying, sadness, feelings.
Verbal expressions of support.
Prayer.
