dear black women:
you are allowed to be soft, delicate and dependent. allow yourself to receive and be taken care of. you are worth it.
i made this tumblr post almost three years ago and i think it’s very sweet that it’s their birthday today when this is getting notes again :)
but sir that’s my emotional support mutual who’s way cooler than me that i can’t believe actually follows me
butch wolverine if you can hear me 🙌🏽 save me butch wolverine 🙌🏽 butch wolverine save me 🙌🏽
Enslaved people were actively enslaved. Please avoid the passive language of 'slaves/slavery'.
White people were not passive. They created the constructs. They established generational structures of wealth/power.
White reactionary politics has always been rooted in white supremacy. Always.
you have to stay alive. you're going to be such a beautiful middle aged freak. young freaks will see you in the street and know that things can be okay.
Writers suffer from tinker bell brain they need constant applause or they start believing everything they’ve written is horseshit
i can't have beef with the power of friendship trope because if someone wanted to hang out with me i'd probably reconsider my stance on turning the city into the 10th circle of hell
nonblack people hush. this is not your “history being made”. this is not your victory. i know children who attend MY school who were brutalized by police YESTERDAY and thus the battle continues. black people are still being oppressed and affected by generations of trauma, so seeing you rejoice in a sliver of accountability from a system that functions to fuel mass incarceration of our people offers no joy, solace or solidarity. continue to amplify OUR voices and OUR activism keeping our people alive, safe and thriving rather than trying to claim progress over our corpses
