when i was in middle school, i got bullied for being a black fall out boy fan.
literally almost every day of my life these idiots would trash my interests and my personality because of my race.
all because “emo music is white culture”.
if you’re a person of color who’s bullied for their “white” interests, i raise my glass to you and wish you have an amazing day. it will get better, you rule.
if you’re white, you can and are encouraged to reblog this. thank you for being kind and wonderful to kids of color.
Also friendly reminder that Pete Wentz, the Fall Out Boy frontman, is half black. Referring to music/art created by POC as “white culture” is racist gatekeeping edgelord nonsense.
