🖤🧠👸🏾We were both destroyed by this system however, we have to look at how we continue to destroy ourselves. Sistas, don’t become emotional - hear me with your heart and not your emotions. Some of the things that some black women do to our boys was at a point due to the residual effects of slavery. Making our boys weak so that they wouldn’t stand up & revolt which would “prevent” the slave master from killing them or selling them. Another reason is due to the psychological reminder that some of these young brothers give to their mothers where they look, sound and may even behave like their fathers and you don’t like it. Another reason is the fear of your son being attacked and/or killed by a police officer so in your effort to “teach” him how to “behave” in front of “authority figures” you psychologically buck-break him. The courts, schooling system and much more ENCOURAGE the division between Black men & women. They are not interested in us having strong families, for they will lose another stream of income. Know this too! As well intentioned as many of our sisters are they simply were not properly taught how to handle boys and THAT side is OUR fault as Black men! We were destroyed to a degree and what we are collectively dealing with is our people becoming re-educated about who we are, how to love ourselves and how to love each other. This is on BOTH of us to fix. I say all of this with love….. We have to fix us…. ✊🏿🧠
