My daily affirmation when things get tough: “I am a reflection of my ancestors dreams and resilience.” It is how I’ve made it through all this I swear.
Even though conservative voters always preach about the economy being a factor of their voting, their actual votes never reflect.
I’m convinced that conservative voters do not care about the economy. I’m coming to the realization that these people don’t care about high cost. They don’t care about not being able to afford things. They simply just don’t care. Yet, they’ll go day and day out complaining about them?
This “find a Black woman” narrative people are teaching their non Black children is exhausted. Why are you coaching your children to find safe spaces in Black women when they’re lost or in trouble but you aren’t showing up at the voting booths to protect said Black women?
The tax system in America is actually fucked up and no politician is willing to change it.
The US government promised Black people reparations back in the late 1800s that was never paid so I’m not really sure why we’re acting like it’s such a travesty that we’re asking for it now.
Funny how the all the people ransacking the Capitol on January 6 were liberals, plants, and ANTIFA—until there was money to be made from it.
That's why they teach a mythological version of the US in high schools across the nation and call it history.
The more we learn, the more we realize why they're so afraid of us coming into power. The schit they've done should have Black Folks stocking up on Bullets, Bear Mace, Machetes, Torches & MAPP gas. They're lucky that we don't want revenge, something they cherish. We just want peace & equality.

That former Florida warden said the quiet part out loud. Talking about an “aging prison population” and needing “sweat equity” from a young Black man exposed how the prison system is a major institution that requires reform. They see Black people as a source of slave labor for institutional profit.
As I said previously, the over policing of Black bodies specifically Black men is how they’ve repackage slavery. Criminalizing small things and over-sentencing for minor infractions.
The federal government dropped bombs on Black communities in an attempt to kill us off by the way. I genuinely don’t give a damn about the history of others when they’ve refused to teach the history of what they’ve done and continue to do to us between slavery and 2026.
This New Yorker cartoon is accurate but a gut punch.

Step 1 find a 🦝 to sell the people out for money. Step 2 eliminate the source materials. Fucking clowns.

Everyday I wake up it feels like Gotham City. Crime and mayhem by the federal government.
Side note. After seeing a video of a grown male politician mad about the introduction of a law that extended the age of consent to marry a female child from 16 to 18.. ..my stance is.. unalive all pdfs and check those hard drive asap.
I’ve never had a chance to watch that Katt Williams interview with Shannon Sharpe in full. I’ll go watch the near 3-hour interview right now and drop a thought if I have one. I grew up without TV, so I’m honestly way more book-oriented and barely have the attention span for long screen content.
The fact that the civic test as it pertains to Black history has strategically picked questions surrounding our ancestors remarkable fight for justice show how they’ve continued to escape complicity in the transatlantic slave trade and whitewash the crimes of this country.
The history of Black Americans fighting segregation, discrimination, voting suppression, and unequal treatment didn’t just benefit us. It quite literally reshaped America’s legal protections for EVERYONE. Understanding that history should be a core part of American immigration civics test.
Black history should be mandatory on the American citizenship civics test. A lot of people immigrate to America benefiting from rights expanded through Black Americans’ fight for civil rights, yet some arrive with deep disrespect for Black Americans themselves.
Being shy and introverted as an adult is so embarrassing sometimes. Like girl just speak up and stop this nonsense already. 😭
If yall didn’t know, the majority of the degrees that didn’t make it on the Department of Education professional degree list are predominantly mandated reporters, held by Black women, and women in general.
And still refuse to compensate said stolen labor.

Is it weaponized incompetence or is that person just plain fucking stupid? Either way, you deserve better.
Not nearly enough reporting about what's happening in Cuba, which the administration is attempting to squeeze, punish, and coerce into submission and violent self destruction. This is so much worse than the embargo. It's hideous. Haiti, Cuba, ongoing boat strike murders: anti-Black foreign policy
