I am black. I am queer. I am Asian. #BQA. For someone who belongs to so many categories, I still never fit the mold. I could never defined myself so how could someone else define me. I don’t belong in a box or on a pedestal. I shouldn’t be living rent free in your head, in fact you should be paying me to take up space in your head. I’ll gladly take up space there just so I can take a break from myself.

New video shows California cops fatally shoot black man after jaywalking stop

A new video shows the fatal shooting of a black man after homeless outreach deputies stopped him for jaywalking in California last year. The

An unarmed man was killed for jaywalking by homeless outreach deputies on a not so routine stop between a Pair of squad car cops and a pedestrian. This is part of the systematic killing of black men that continues. He died for jaywalking? What’s the penalty supposed to be for jaywalking, a ticket? Not a tackle to the ground and shooting. What if two renter cops tried to detain you for jaywalking in this day and age, what would you do?

They were acquitted when the video shows they should have been charged. This is sickening And the police have got to stop. How do we do community affairs to help credit and foster an environment or distrust and hostility? Enough is enough.

Black people have been marginalized since they arrived in this country. They are not however the only demographic that has been marginalized or that will be marginalized.

We aren’t coming for revenge. We are coming for equality. Juneteenth =! July 4th. Let’s start there.

It’s time to let these children know what time it is…

37 years. It took me 37 years to become blacktivated. He’s probably never heard of that word before, because I made it up. OK so There’s blacktivated, where you come to realize your blackness, your inner black power, or your inner black ally. A blacktivist is what you become after blacktivation. And Blacktivism are the actions and results you take and get as a blacktivist that help to progress the black agenda. I like to affectionately call it the Build Black Better plan.

Like so many of us, George Floyd was a pivotal moment and civil rights history. His untimely death beneath the knee of a police officer for nine minutes sparked the largest civil rights movement in history… And it was global. Black Lives Matter became an instant sensation around the world and protest of this police brutality. 

And after 37 years, saying that man die, I finally realized… That could’ve been me.
