this is not getting attention. they just buried it. ANOTHER trans woman is dead. four days ago. died in her cell. prisons which are inherently designed to shorten lifespans
Yeah Black Galvestons/Black Texans have a point about Juneteenth.
And I’ll never understand why ppl get so mad about ppl telling you the true history of a holiday they’ve BEEN celebrating.
Tired of watching Black people be disrespected, mocked, and dehumanized for simply existing. Michelle Obama has spent years carrying herself with grace, intelligence, and dignity, yet people still attack her with racist and hateful insults.
This is why it’s fuck everybody who aligns themselves with people like Trump who is a racist, rapist, and pedophile!
Anti-Black-American sentiment is treated as an unfortunate disagreement, while Black American pushback is treated as a threat to unity itself.
That a double standard where the grievance is tolerated, but the response to the grievance is pathologized.
And idk if people wanna Celebrate Juneteenth so bad, why are you doing separate events that don’t really acknowledge African Americans or doing collaboration? It’s just a cash grab and branding thing at this point.
As a Black American, I find it highly offensive when Black Americans act as though our ethnoculture is incomplete on its own.
If you can only feel like a whole person by attaching yourself to other peoples and cultures, that is not solidarity or unity—it is a form of low ethnic self-esteem.
You have much shadow work to do, because self-awareness starts with knowledge of self.
The 70s-80s is really the closest thing we have to black american traditional clothing. All other parts of the diaspora got their cultural garb that they put on during special occasions, festivals and whatnot. We shouldnt just let ours fade away into obscurity
