A full-time paycheck should cover:

- Rent without panic
- Groceries without math
- A doctor without a GoFundMe

We aren't asking for yachts.

We're asking for basics to feel basic again.

Her tire blew out. She pulled into a gas station, locked the doors, and waited for her family to come help.

When police arrived she was unconscious in the driver's seat.

They broke the window and fired twenty-three shots into the car.

Tyisha Miller. Riverside, California, December 1998. She was 19.

She was hit twelve times. Four officers fired.
No one was charged with anything. A grand jury declined. The Justice Department reviewed it and closed it.

The four officers were eventually fired by the city — and the police union fought that, too.
A nineteen-year-old waiting for roadside assistance, asleep behind a locked door, in a car that was not going anywhere.

Twenty-three shots. Riverside changed its entire police department after this, under state supervision. That is what it cost.

You know what happened to Tyisha Miller. But what happened to the hundreds of other cases that never became national headlines?

We went looking. The result is 150 Crimes Against Black America They Never Answered For—a collection of cases that deserve more than a paragraph in an archive.

I want yall to stop standing so close to me in lines.

Is it just me or anyone else noticed social and spatial awareness completely vanishing? People freezing in doorways, hogging the entire sidewalk, planted in front of exits, blocking whole aisles, stopping at the top of escalators… Get out of the way. Other people exist here too.

Me when I didn’t hear what you said:

[yimika. @yimikaaaa]

teaching your adult family how to treat you as an adult truly is exhausting. i think everyone still sees the twelve year old, who is gonna do whatever she's told to do. i am a grown ass woman now and i am gonna do whatever tf i feel like doing. i value my time/space/energy.

[aether @bluewdrift]

my therapist told me this and it hit me: “healing is so hard because it is a constant battle between your inner child who is scared and just wants safety.... your inner teenager who is angry and just wants justice.... and your current self-who is tired and just wants peace."

Maturing is realizing none of us are easy to be with! It's about who's willing to stay committed, to understand you and actually wants to grow with you.

[aether @bluewdrift]

i heard a therapist say, ‘your feelings are always valid, your behavior is not.’ she explained by saying feel what you feel but you need to be accountable for what you do as a result of those feelings.

How fortunate must two people be to find each other at the exact moment they’re both ready to fall in love, in exactly the way the other needs?

"Imagine if it was your daughter.”

No.

Develop empathy WITHOUT imagining her to be your sister, daughter or mom.

Develop BASIC humanity…
