when africans yell at african americans for wearing dashikis and say “we don’t wear that in africa”—-stop that shit
when african americans say “i wish i had a culture”—-i want to cry because you do. you. do.
people want to make black americans feel like they aint shit and all they have is slavery. the fact that they’ve endured and survived and thrived in a country that is STILL...

Black 'Feminist' Men & Pedestals
so-treu:
urbanafrofuturism:
I feel like…
a lot of the time, ‘conscious’ black men emerge, and they read all this and that about race and gender, and feminism, and womanism, and sexism, and misogyny.
And they take these narratives, and they create a pedestal for black women to sit on,
and they say things like ‘We need to honor our women, our sisters.’ (Except it’s always in relationship to...

British tv shows are so incestuous

I’m shaking. I’m close to tears.
the food i made is sitting on the stove getting colder and colder because I can’t bare to put anything in my mouth right now.
Trying to distract myself, and it’s working a bit.

So, I’m going to say this about this whole spanking/abuse debate running across my dash. A. There is a difference between corporal punishment & abuse. I’ve experienced both. Only one scarred me emotionally. B. Very often, POC parenting traditions are heavily influenced by the…
^Agreed. More so, since I know that...
ok fine. need to make spinach stew for the yams.

blaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh…….

episode 14 of Death Note is so annoying.
Show me more L not Light and his silly girlfriend.
I think people who menstruate should be given 3 days off whatever work they do each month during their period, because I could not imagine going to work with cramps like these.
Imagine having to be on your feet all day with sever cramps…ugh..
I guess that’s why there’s tylenol, pamprin, etc…
but what if you don’t want to take that stuff for whatever reason? Are you...
My problem isn't that Cleopatra was White.
dank-potion:
Evidence suggests she was Greek and that’s fine.
My main issue is that she’s become the focal point of Egyptian society.
That is a fallacy, because the Egyptian civilization was a powerful, autonomous, society well before Cleopatra and the Greeks came along.
Can we talk about Hatshepsut, Merneith, Nimaethap, Nitocris and the other badass female Pharaohs that were running shit...

L reminds me of my boyfriend when I first met him. The long disheveled hair, bags under his eyes, the baggy clothes, hell even the mean sweet tooth lol
He’s such an adorable character.
Fucking! Patriarchal Sex

“Embracing patriarchal notions of manhood, black males thought of sex as informed first and foremost by male desire.In his essay “Patriarchal Sex” Robert Jensen explains: “Sex is fucking. In patriarchy, there is an imperative to fuck—in rape and in ‘normal’ sex, with strangers and girlfriends and wives and estranged wives and child. What matters in patriarchal...
I hate being such a mean goat.
I woke up with fire in my veins.
Maybe more death note until I feel better and I’m not feeling so bitey.

From the article:
Nina Simone - Her involvement in civil rights was spurred by an incident at her first classical piano recital at age 12. During the recital, her parents sat in seats in the front of the building to see her play, but were told to move to the back to make way for white guests. She...
shit. Smooth sailing my ass.
Where the hell did these cramps come from??
lifeisaslowharold asked: I guess make a pithy internet remark?
lifeisaslowharold asked: I didn't see it as a "bless your happy hearts." I didn't know what to make of it, really. Most of us actually didn't want to hold their hands, but the kids never let us go. That was my experience, anyway, and I'm still trying to figure it out in the larger context of my whole trip.
OMG FUCK LIGHT SPOILED SHITSTAIN!
I feel gooshy and needy tonight.
blaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh

Light on Death Note is a not a likeable character.
I usually root for the bad guys, but I hate this guy.
He’s such a nice guy.
Chronicle was really enjoyable. My little sister was close to tears when the father hit his son.
She also bawled her eyes out in I Am Legend when he had to kill the dog.
She’s so cute.
Death Note it is.
