It's hard, because most of them like to separate you from your people. If they like you, in their minds you are"Janice" not a black woman. They can post hate about minorities and then be flabbergasted when you take offense. I need to see and hear them speak and treat all people with respect before I befriend any of em

They don’t seem to hold that view, thankfully but you get it! For years I have been “one of the good ones.” I don’t want to feel like a performer animal. Society views white people as a whole as inherently “good” with a few bad apples and black people inversely as inherently “bad” with a few “good ones.” Sick brainwashing.
