RIP Sparky D. During the 80s Roxanne Wars, Sparky become a notorious, Battle Rapper and was the first to lay the groundwork for female Brooklyn rappers! Her courage, fierce attitude & bodacious voice is one I admired! Sparky boldly shared her faith in Christ. #ImAPioneer
@WESTCOASTDOC Anti-white racism does not exist but in the minds of yt supremacists who need a political reason to get our government to stop supporting policies that push back against anti-black racism (i.e. DEI, Affirmative Action, voting rights etc).
@TheSaschaRose@BlackAndNative1 And the cold thing about it is the descriptor “black” or “mulatto” or “negro” came from our oppressors. We DO have a shared experience and I identify as black and/or African American (something created by someone black). I don’t know why we’re having this discussion. We’re dying!
@SqSehrish 79. Add 5 to 4 and you get 9. Add 10 (double 5) to 9 and get 19. (Double 10) 20+19=39. Then double 20 (40) then add it to 39 and you get 79.
@JE6219090595026@jemelehill Acting was terrible? Her screaming at dinner sent chills through me. Yea there was a lot of jump scares (and I jumped at everyone) but their acting was believable. A quirky white dude is not going to respond to things the way you would. I would change my expectations!
Naomi Osaka full statement:
"You know I'm seeing a little bit of- 'Why can't you love everyone for all skin tones?' and 'what if someone had an all white party?!'
First of all I do love everyone for who they are no matter their race + ethnicity, (I'm literally half Japanese lol). I can only speak from my experiences in my own life though, growing up as a tennis player I didn't see many people that looked like ME and I feel like it's important to celebrate them.
Secondly I feel like it's important to note that there have been all white dinners/parties. I don't know how else to tell you this, I literally seen them all the time and never had an issue with it at all. To the people who ask this question I want to ask you this question too, 'What is it about POC getting together that unsettles you so much?'
I want to end this by saying I grew up watching my dad get discriminated against, having the cops called on him multiple times at the tennis court. There are multiple things I will apologize for in my life but celebrating being black and appreciating who we are will never be something I would consider saying sorry for. Thanks.
Actually I lied, I am sorry. I'm sorry for the people who cannot comprehend in their brains that this is not about exclusion, this is a celebration about how far we have come."
@1sxk1@DailyNewsSoup@plies Crickets! And also explain how Trump is for black people. We’re a year in to firing thousands of black people from the federal government and replacing them with unqualified yts! Erasing black history, and erasing black voting power. How was HE for US?
