We argue about whose package is it at the door. Who had a good snack and didn’t bring the other something home. Who went to bed first and left the other on the sofa. 🤣
CULTURE DOES NOT NEED YOUR PERMISSION. YOU don’t have to understand every word to understand that it wasn’t made to exclude you. It just wasn’t made to center you.
And that’s okay. 4/4
Instead of getting on Beyoncé’s internet to run your mouth, you could’ve sat there swayed to the music! The Super Bowl Halftime Show was representation personified, artistic expression, a signal to the diaspora, a nod to resistance, and a reminder that 3/4
Some of us came here by choice. Some of us didn’t. All of us deserve to be seen, heard, and represented. Like why do I even need to say this???
The entitlement it takes to believe art MUST translate itself for your comfort is wild. 2/4

Y’all need to learn how to appreciate people, places, and things that are not like you. English is not the only language that matters. English speakers do not need to be centered in EVERYTHING. America is land made richer because of her immigrants. 1/4
@regurgmethod@Raindropsmedia1 Who said yt guys haven't?! so have ⚫ guys. (90’s corporate attire would like a word) Y'all be WILLFULLY OBTuSE to miss point. We R talking fashion trends!! Keep up! Does the Zoot suit look like generic yt fashion 2U? Did that suit mean yt men had never wore a suit before? =/=
@Raindropsmedia1 And we can have a whole convo on WHY black ppl care about their appearance and take pride in looks and individuality but she obvi ain't on that level. Sigh.
@Raindropsmedia1 Black ppl hav been trendsetters for centuries. There isn’t a trend (w/longevity) that didn't start in black spaces. This take is awful& full of ignorance. Watch how major fashion houses immediately cater to this look. Read more! Start with Dandyism, jeans, the zoot suit, etc
@Raindropsmedia1 & I’m so tired of y’all acting like things that are normal is somehow worthless if Black people participate. Fashion & the creation of trends is a human thing, especially in youth. Everybody does it, not just black men. Black people just happen to be exceptional at it
@HenryCountyBOE Snap benefits are due to be delayed soon. Please feed ALL your students. Stand in the gap. Mean what you say when you declare you're “In pursuit of Exceptional” !
@HenryCountyBOE please do the right thing by those kids in your district. Erase lunch debt. Give EVERYBODY free lunch again. Do the “Bookbag Fridays” AGAIN.Right now, let's forget the bottom line and be the one place those kids can depend on a meal. Food is a human right.
@HenryCountyBOE Ask the community for donations, if needed. I shouldn't have to quote statistics about how much better kids perform academically when they've eaten, you already know that. Let's do what's right.
