Smart idea, except I've been frustrated with the LJ antiracism movement for a long while. I support the idea of fighting racism. I really do. I just...to be honest, part of the reason why I DON'T like this movement is because it makes me feel like only my race is important, not the fact that I'm a fan. It makes me feel like I'm on a whole other plane of existence from the concerned white fans who are oh so concerned about my "problems". I just want to geek out with everyone else without people reminding me that I'm black and I have ~social problems~.

Not to mention I've just been really turned off by the "with us or against us" attitude that's been thrown around lately. It...I can't see how that would endear many people to join the community.
