Thank you #Spoutible for the positive responses, sympathy & empathy. I really appreciated it. I will provide a list below of autobiographies and biographies of White antiracists that has been collected & presented by Beverly Daniel Tatum, formerly the president of Spelman College in Atlanta, GA.

Welp, I was called a "subversive", "jew", along with homophobic slurs, that hates White people on that other app for providing a list of White authors and biographies of White individuals that engage in antiracist work & activities. Would such a list be appreciated on #Spoutible ?

One of the main reasons Dr. Tatum gathered this list of White antiracists is due to many White individuals that take up this work do not want to become martyrs like V. Liuzzo, J. Reeb, or M. Schwerner. White allies that spoke up, resisted, pushed social change & lived are important to see, too.
