Anybody wanna read Danai Gurira’s 2001 Honors paper on how psychology neglects the black woman?

I know that being black is naturally a political existence but I’d like to have fun while celebrating my blackness without it being something I have to write a think piece about later like niggas can’t swag surf in peace?

Do you ever worry that you’re not holding on to memories as well as you thought? Like there are so many good moments that you want to remember but you’re worried that you’ve just let them pass by or that you’ll forget them altogether and you won’t have any stories to tell your children or whatever.

please remember that in a healthy, adult relationship (romantic or not), you should be able to talk about things that are bothering you. if you are bottling up your emotions and holding it against someone when you haven’t told them what is wrong, you’re not engaging in healthy behaviour. but also, if your friend/significant other makes you feel as though you can’t talk about what bothers you- i.e. has made you feel guilty/gotten extraordinarily angry when things were brought up in the past- they are not engaging in healthy behaviour.

No offense but I will never feel threatened by a white girl in anyway, shape, or form.

I’ve learned that all you can do is play your part. Whether a person appreciates it or not. You know that you was 100 with every move.
