A Thought Exercise for White People reading this.
How much do you consume - , , , , etc. - that doesn't feature a white male lead or isn't written, produced or directed by white males?

Do you patronize businesses that are not owned or operated by White males?

This isn't a judgement or accusation. I'm not looking for answers so there's no need to comment. This is just something to think about.

I make a conscious effort to read books by and watch movies/series from a variety of folks around the world. It's been an excellent practice that's led me to discover some things I love that I wouldn't have otherwise been aware of.

Art, I primarily buy from fellow queer artists--but always from actual living artists. I don't buy mass-produced prints.

I mostly order from locally owned restaurants (often minority-owned), but don't think much about shopping.

@tyghebright It doesn't take a lot of effort. Does it? I go thru periods of heavy reading and have occasionally walked into specialty bookstores, or libraries, and gotten recommendations based on my interests.
