A racist white-centering thing white people do instead of activism
Especially prevalent when a pandemic prevents white people from doing their other boarding like surfboarding and snowboarding, keyboarding is a white hobby of writing enormous diatribes about white feelings, such as outrage about black people being brutalized and killed by police officers.
Keyboarding is often used to sidestep actual activism, such as reposting people of color or engaging in the direct action asked of them such as making calls or writing letters to other white people.
Keyboarding was first made popular in the civil rights movement by white moderates and liberals, who Martin Luther King lamented were a "great stumbling block," and Malcolm X described as "the worst enemy to America."
