Greetings, well-intentioned person of pallor. Your good intentions used to be enough. But in these diverse and divisive times, some people would hold you accountable for your actions.

Let Daquan - that black co-worker you are referring to when you claim to have black friends - help you navigate perilous small talk with African Americans with this handy field guide. This portable bit of emotional labour puts at your fingertips a tabbed and alphabetised list of things not to say to black people. Finally!
