[swiss bae 🇨🇩 @thekonyjen]

if you are black and your “preference” is non blacks only, you quite literally hate yourself..

there’s no ifs or buts around that

you hate yourself.

[Dr. Allison Wiltz @queenie4rmnola]

Anger is a human emotion. All people express anger, including Black women. The problem is that some assume we are either always angry or that our anger is irrational, rather than a response to injustice

Black Africans in general have a habit of doing this. You can say something obvious as "the vast majority of continental Africans are brownskin to darkskin with broad noses, full lips, & 4C hair", and you will have Africans argue you down & insist that we can look mixed-race as well. Why do we never celebrate what the majority of us look like, why do we never brag about our black & brown-colored eyes, why do we never brag about our kinky 4C hair, why do we never celebrate our dark melanated skin?

While Twitter was out here bothering everybody in the past 12 hours, I noticed this phenomenon in the South Asian & Arab community too, those people seem really eager to prove how 'white' or Eurocentric their group can look, they love highlighting members with green or blue eyes like it's the norm, but they never brag about their tan, brown, or dark skin. You rarely see them showing off their black or brown-colored eyes (which the vast majority of South Asians & Arabs have) or their own ethnic features.

So this isn't just a black thing, non-black POC suffer from this as well, it's honestly sad because there's nothing wrong with looking non-white 💔. I want black Africans to know that there's nothing wrong with looking black or being black. We have so much unpacking to do around why we feel the constant need to justify our blackness.

[Chi @__Poisonivyyy]

I don't follow people I don't like, I don't watch stories of people I don't like and I don't interact with people I don't like. Y’all got this weird ass obsession with keeping up with mfs you don't like and i find that so strange.

[AYANNY @gaygirldiaries]

Please don’t ever trade your authenticity for approval. Let people dislike you.

[Libriscent @libriscent]
