How about we spend our energy fixing systemic/institutional racism first, because language will follow quite naturally.

The other way around surely doesn't work, and is just symbolic gestures without actual change.


There is only so much i can do - i'm not american and thats a change i can't make on my own aside from doing my best to be an ally when possible.

However i can open a few PRs and use some of my time to make that change. It's a minor inconvenience to me and if it makes even one black person feel heard and supported then yea, i'm gonna do it.
