Not beating the video vixen allegations 🎥 9/19 🥳

[Stay vigiliant @Mr_Kaptivation]

Having lived there and a few other majority Black cities, I would never say it’s a bad place to live. Would I move back as a 34 year old? Probably not (little too wild and out for me 😅). But I do think it’s a nice city, and I enjoyed my time there

[Never Beating Those Allegations @nice_two]

I will never accept a black person saying one of the BLACKEST cities in the world, is a bad place to have a good(or content) life.

NO

For black ppl in general, ATL is amazing!
For gay black men, it’s even more amazing!

Yall rolling with the wrong teams🤷🏾‍♂️

[Stay vigiliant @Mr_Kaptivation]

Yeah, it’s called the MUSIC industry for a reason. Love great lyricism but if that’s all you want please go to your local spoken word or poetry slam downtown 🤷🏾‍♂️

[Dylan | petal era ꕤ @arianapologist]

we need to start prioritizing melodies and production over lyrics again, i’m tired

[Stay vigiliant @Mr_Kaptivation]

So happy I experienced the city pre-COVID. She’s barely hanging on to her Black Gay Mecca status at this point 🤦🏾‍♂️

(A)ttitudes (B)ehaviors (C)onsequences model of social psychology. Attitudes are very resistant to change so all you really can do is curb the outward behavior via laws, regulations, statutes etc.

[Sizwe SikaMusi @SizweLo]

bell hooks said that White people will meet a Black person who completely challenges every racial stereotype that they have, but rather than giving up the stereotypes, they create a special category for that person and say, things like “Well, you’re not like other Black people”, instead of saying, “My ideas of Black people were too narrow”.

This is called “subtyping” and it leads to the survival of negative stereotypes because the new category individual who’s supposedly “not like the others” is mentally isolated from the group.

What this shows is that bigotry is all about protecting an existing hierarchy and it doesn’t matter much whether a person is exposed to other people or not. Which is why meeting intelligent, kind, accomplished, or complex Black people does not dismantle prejudice if someone is emotionally invested in keeping the stereotype intact.

Exposure to facts and figures doesn’t change the situation either. Someone can know the statistics on crime, education, poverty, or discrimination and still keep racial stereotypes because the stereotype preserves a sense of superiority and avoids confronting historical responsibility.

This is part of why bell hooks further argued that racism is emotional and ideological more than just purely ignorant, which is then why facts by themselves usually do not overcome a worldview that a person is motivated to preserve.

No overthinking 🎬

Classic misattribution of arousal theory (Schachter & Singer, 1962) 🤭

[res judicatie @cat_i_e]

the joining of a run club and then the having of an affair with someone in the run club is a recurring theme in my divorce cases.

[Stay vigiliant @Mr_Kaptivation]

Negative. Gatekeeping back then ensured that many of the artists we heard 1) could ACTUALLY sing and 2) had sufficient budget to get the best producers, songwriters and creative teams. Even the “misses” would be better than the average quality of today’s music lol

[Fave @faveskip]

Nostalgia bias got some of y’all thinking music was better back then lol.. every era has hits and misses, you just remember the good ones.

[Stay vigiliant @Mr_Kaptivation]

I went to kindergarten registration this morning, and when the Principal said "welcome to the class of 2039," everybody in the room gasped. 😂😂😂

[Stay vigiliant @Mr_Kaptivation]

My favorite Stevie Wonder song (and that’s saying a lot because he has so many great songs).

Also, I had no idea Michael Jackson sang background on this lol

[CHANEL MURDER @ChanelMurder]

Stevie Wonder went so crazy on “All I Do” it’s not even funny

[CM Ponk @MegaTakesATwit]

it’s crazy how many men don’t mature past 8th grade

[Stay vigiliant @Mr_Kaptivation]

She’s mid-Atlantic. Tons of southern Black transplants though

[Cartier Chilly @OGChilly87]

DC is the south. This argument that DC is not the south is from ignorance. The south is not all rural and country. But everything that DC is economically and socially, the south is. DC has more in common with Charlotte, Atlanta, Nashville than Philly, NYC, Newark, Boston etc
