2. Constantly attacking and putting yourself down.

3. Thinking that others are better than you.

4. Expecting things to not turn out well.

5. Living in the past.

6. Fearing the future.

7. Being afraid of change.

Sometimes you just have to turn your music up so loud you can’t think

if you’re white and are protesting, please, please listen to this. if you’re white and have white friends protesting, let them know

this all blows in the face of Black and brown people protesting
