“People get used to anything. The less you think about your oppression, the more your tolerance for it grows. After a while, people just think oppression is the normal state of things. But to become free, you have to be acutely aware of being a slave.” -Assata Shakur
Niggas is saying that we need more Black convience stores, so something like Cyrus never happens again and I gotta slap y'all hard ASF to make you understand that you cannot Black wealth your ass out of this
Malcolm X said the most dangerous person in America was an educated Black man because education gave him the tools to see the system clearly
But he also warned that education within the oppressor’s framework could produce a man who was dangerous only to his own people.
Another symptom of how little diversity there is within the industry. Majority of devs are still white millennials so that’s the type of dialog you’ll get.
I don't think de yout dem of today realize just how uncool they are. This the first time in the pop culture age where youth literally drives nothing, new music gettin whupped on the charts by old work, everything is nostalgia, but these kids think we tryna connect with them 😅
There’s no reason Black people should be patronizing non-Black stores and salons anymore. They hate us to the point of shooting our children in the back, so why are we still literally giving them money? Because it’s convenient? Who can respect people who do that?
The fact that an 14 year old boy was RACIALLY profiled the minute he walked into the store, was accused of stealing water that he DID NOT TAKE, left the store camly get chased 130 yards by two GROWN Asian men and shot in the back get off not guilty!!!I’m so sorry Cyrus Belton💔
Many of you think that because you're unattractive, lack romantic options and sex, or struggle with social anxiety that you're a good person. Morally superior than those who are the opposite. But powerlessness isn't a virture. Your existence isn't inherently improving this world.
I once said there being no black african superpower countries also contributes heavily to the global social currency of black people everwhere and people tried to argue with me lol
Racists in this country aren't suffering from black fatigue. They're suffering from their history. History they never took the time to learn. That's why when they say stuff like that happened a long time ago not knowing that our parents experienced it. Their history is fatiguing.
bro to bro: if you like skinnier girls, get yourself a skinny girl. if you like thicker girls, get yourself a thick girl. if you like fitness girls, get yourself a fit girl. you are entitled to your own preferences.
but what you are not going to do bro, is date a girl who is not your type and make her feel inferior to other girls.
