Non-Black People who throw in their two scents when Black people are discussing BLACK matters?

Are you accusing me of suppressing anyone's voice on here? Of any color or race whatsoever?
Are you accusing me of claiming to speak for anyone but myself?
Because I'd like the receipts.
I'm free to opine as I see fit, and will continue to do so. There's no directives on my part here.
There are threads here every day dictating and criticizing what Muslims and Latinos must do about complicated violence, economic, and domestic issues abroad.
This hypocrisy should not be lost on certain members on the coli lamenting that somehow others are telling them what should be done about their communities.
They jump in and then sometimes try and act like they know more about are issues than we do. The entitlement.
this is exactly it.
Black folks always inviting non-Blacks into EVERYTHING. like we can't treat Blackness with intimacy.
Black culture is just always up for open consumption from everyone.
everyone feels they have legitimate power over Black shyt.
It's disgusting, and i really wish Black folks would stop encouraging that shyt.
gassin up white rappers, teaching Becy Black lingo, letting them drop their two cents about things they could NEVER understand.
I am accusing you of treating Blackness as a thing for open consumption, and an area where you mistakenly feel entitled.
I'm telling you to have some fukking decency and not run your lip when Black folks are talking Black folks business.
I do not speak about Latino-ness, as an identity, because I don't have that lived experience. I recognize where my voice is and is not valuable. And this is basic instinct I believe many Black people have. But non-black people rarely seems to have it FOR Black people.
i challenged you on it and you use the same deflection that white men have always used to co-opt Black voice and representation - "it shouldn't matter who it's coming from".
Well it does matter, and it matters because of privilege.
Let me give you a simple example. When your family is discussing a family issue, it's intimate. Should a total stranger, a person who is not family and has never lived a moment as a family member, feel entitled to throw in their two cents - ESPECIALLY if they were not invited and cannot offer solutions????
Smarten up. It's ridiculous.
very glad you made this thread. it's disgusting that they come into threads discussing black issues and tell us what we should or shouldn't be doing or thinking. it's one thing if they offered their opinion but they speak as if blacks have any reason to listen to them. they need to worry about the issues in their own communities, especially under this current administration 
Dominicans are black.
But perhaps if you focused on the content of comments and not where it came from you might actually learn something in life.
lol when asked if you're black you reply you're brown like an indian
You're creating a false narrative.
Let's get to what really brought this thread up.
Muslims in France protested on behalf of a violated black man.
That I suggested in that thread that this is a step in the right direction has you up in arms. Frankly it's ridiculous of you.
So you're black?

But then you'd complain about how "no one cares about black issues" 
The entire premise of this thread is stupid, should black people not speak on the radicalisation of white people then?
The only thing bad about non-blacks talking about black issues is that they can assert their OPINIONS to be FACTS and that is wrong. We live in an age where people believe their opinions are equivalent to actual 1st hand accounts and facts.

the radicalization of white people isnt a "black" issue though breh. they are radicalized against islam and latinos as well so them speaking on it makes sense. discernment needs to be practiced by them, period.
a dominican has no place telling black people how we should feel about arabs.
