On twitter I’m seeing dozens of threads from Black activists warning people against burnout, giving all sorts of useful tips about preventing and managing it for the sake of a long-term, sustainable effort.

On tumblr I’m seeing a hell of a lot of young white kids yelling at anyone who actually follows those steps, and acting like burnout is a moral falling rather than a well-proven psychological phenomenon.

Be careful who you get your information from. Don’t let guilt lead you to make choices that will harm both you and the movement.

"It does come to a close and you sort of look behind you when it's over and you're like "Well whatever childhood was, that was it. It's over, now." and that you feel it and your parent feels it and it's difficult and it's hard to know if you're ready for whatever the next step is but it doesn't really matter if you're ready because it's already there. It's already happening." (Greta Gerwig)
