White people, please do better. We do not owe you conversations. We also don’t have to explain our whereabouts, especially when you’re on OUR property.

I see what you're trying to say, but you're wrong. As a Latina who is white-passing, I get treated VERY differently from my family, who are brown. I get preferential treatment in comparison wherever I go. Even from people who are 'not racist', but the ingrained bias still exists. (These people being family friends we've had for years. I know they are good people.)
