During the Black Lives Matter movement, Amandas have attempted to make their voices heard in a big way. They are white and are Millenials. They drink craft beer and have hipster boyfriends. They wear t-shirts that say "fuck racism" and they march in BLM rallies with their friends, then they comment on social media posts and speak defiantly for the black community, when they've lived their whole lives in the burbs and have never even driven past an urban housing project. They get into countless arguments on the subject of race, yet they have no possible way of relating to the plight of black people. An Amanda just wants you to know that all white people are racists if they do not agree with everything she says, even though when asked to define "racist," she draws a blank.
