Toyin deserved to be here. She deserves to celebrate with loved ones. She deserved to flourish and grow. She deserved to grow as an activist and heal in peace from her trauma. Her story deserved to be told.
Her life mattered
Everything is a trend. No actual standing in the face of death/getting in the mud with folks who are oppressed. Just buzz words and pointing fingers. Everybody is a damn hypocrite. If you want to actually help victims of genocide, get off the internet and get in the field.
At this point yall donโt actually care about the people of Palestine because this is not activismโฆitโs attention seeking. Typing on your $700 iPhone about Palestine people in comparison to an American Icon who stood up for all people is not fixing the issue.
Thereโs nothing sincere about the way anybody is going about activism lately. Using โI got chaโ moments is not fighting for a cause. Be the same ones with ๐ต๐ธ in your bio but still shop at Target for your latest skincare products. Bitch do not piss me off.
I want yโall to know that this is one of those reasons I am so sad that Whitney is also no longer with us because a tribute to Dollyโฆthis is really unfair.
@deaconnnnnn Do yall hate God or something? Sheโs never come off too preachy. Thatโs basis of her music is empowerment through her spiritual lense. Same as India Arie for example. This is the dumbest take.
