Why does everything have to be about race? Because white America made it that way.

One more class to take this summer and I'll earn my MBA from #PVAMU. I'm 39, it's never too late. I'm proud of myself for putting in the work. It's been tough, but I'm almost there.

It's 2024, absolutely no one cares who's gay/lesbian. Yet some ppl would rather live in the closet their whole life. I can never be a lesbian because I can't stand the thought of another set of boobs touching me 🤮. Plus I enjoy 🍆...a lot.

I really hope my MBA pays off because this bachelor's sure hasn't. Tired of living paycheck to paycheck.

[Wednesday Addams @aneehs_p]

This is what I think of when I see my privileged, suburbanite cousins act like they're from the hood. 🤣 And yes I be hatin'

Ethiopian Bible is the 0ldest and most complete biblè òn eàrth. Written in Ge’ez an ancient language of Ethiopia, it’s nearly 8OO years older than the King Jàmes Vèrsion and contains 81-88 books compared to 66. It includes the Book of EN0CH, Esdras, Buruch and all 3 Books of MÀCCABEE, and a host of others that was excòmmunicated from the KJV.

Happy Birthday to Denise McNair. She would’ve been 72 years old today.

She was among 4 girls who were killed when white supremacists bombed the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church in Birmingham in 1963.

Good morning and Happy Saturday to everyone who knows there's an eclipse today, and plans to check it out SAFELY, and not stare into it without protective eyewear like some complete moron.

[Wednesday Addams @aneehs_p]

Ppl will really try to make you feel guilty for not growing up struggling. Like am I supposed to apologize for my parents working their a$$ off? Particularly my dad who took all of the overtime he could to make sure we were straight.

I am 55 years old.
America is the only country I've ever known.
And I love my country.

When I was in school, I learned about the horrors of slavery. Sure, it was a limited education, but I totally got the gist of it.

We learned how people were taken from Africa, and how many DIED during the journey here, forced to labor in hot fields while being whipped, raped, deprived of education, and murdered.

In fact, when I was young, there was a mini-series on TV called Roots that depicted the brutality of slavery in horrifyingly explicit detail.

And then I did my OWN research, reading more books and watching more documentaries and movies.

But somehow, I was able to maintain my love of America. Despite all of the cruelty and brutality I had learned about, I was somehow able to figure out that the people alive in America today had NOTHING TO DO with slavery 200 years ago.

Somehow, I can still say the Pledge of Allegiance and sing the Star Spangled Banner, no problem.

But dishonest fascists like Sarah Huckabee Sanders and Ron DeSantis want to deprive American children of the knowledge of slavery, and African American studies because they say it's "propaganda leftist agenda" designed to teach kids to “hate America.”

That's a preposterous lie.

There are PLENTY of evils and horrors America is responsible for, and if you don't teach kids what happened in the past they may be DOOMED to repeat those horrors in the future.

Today's kids are being asked to treat as normal these "shooter drills" where the possibility of being shot with bullets that make them unrecognizable is a very real possibility, but we think they can't handle learning the truth about what happened 200 years ago?

If you ask me, those of us who learned the truth about America, and STILL love our country, are even more patriotic than those who are trying to whitewash it and hide the truth from kids.

Don't minimize it.
Don't rationalize it, with bullshit like "oh, it wasn't all bad because some people learned skills."

RESPECT THESE KIDS.
TELL THEM THE TRUTH.
