Animated short-film " Your Black Friend " is an open-letter from "your Black friend" to you, their well-meaning white friend, about bias, alienation, and what it means to be a good ally and friend.

The film captures the experience of being a Black friend to white people pretty much perfectly.

If you want to be an ally, you're going to have to get uncomfortable.

There is more to Black music and Black art than Beyoncé , says Passmore.

Having white friends and seeming to "fit in" with the majority can feel alienating.

Our culture and heritage are not costumes you can slide on and off at your convenience.

We don't get to be Black only when it suits us, neither do you.
