you don’t get to speak on behalf of your “community”

“Black men feel….”

“Adoptees always…”

“Asian Americans are…”

Yes, you have more insight as someone who is a part of a specific community or identity. But you don’t get to say how ALL of them feel. You especially don’t get to speak on behalf of an entire community that you AREN’T a part of, but you don’t even get to speak on behalf of an entire community that you ARE a part of.
