SUPPORT WITCHES OF COLOR

Courtney Alexander, founder of Dust II Onyx, has been reading tarot for years, and she’d always notice how hard it was to come by a deck featuring people of color – never mind Black people. So, she sought to publish her very own deck called A Melanated Tarot.

“Dust II Onyx began as a tarot deck I created to address the lack of representation in the tarot world.”

Her Kickstarter has over 500 backers and now, she’s asking all her supporters to help her win the FedEx Small Business Grant Contest (ends 4/5/17).

The deck isn’t due to come out until Summer 2017, but until then, support Courtney by liking the Dust II Onyx facebook page and try to stay updated so when she does publish the cards, her fellow witches can add them to their divination toolset.

I know Dust II Onyx will go far! Ashe <3

This Gorgeous Photo Series Crushes Stereotypes About Black Masculinity

Loftin shot the photo series after seeing the stark contrast between the Google results for “black boy in hoodie” and “white boy in hoodie.”

In contrast to the images of black men depicted in the Google image search, Loftin’s poses are sweet, affectionate, and sometimes silly.

“Black people, and black men specifically, exist outside of the stereotypes that have been created for us by the media and those that control it,” he told.

They always portray us as dangerous thugs in black hoodies, nothing new. And the fact that whites still believe that black people are dangerous to them proves just how ingrained white supremacism is in this country!

This man just wanted to say that racism is still a reality we have to deal with. Inferential racism certainly won’t go away by no one talking about it. We have to accept that there is a serious problem in America, that many white Americans are raised with these subtle cues all around them telling them to “fear blacks”.

Stop making up false stories about us, we are just people, just a little darker.

Can we appreciate how The Brain’s parents keep a dictionary just to look up words that their son says that they don’t understand, but they want to encourage him in his intelligence and don’t shut him down with ‘In English please’ like most people in cartoons will tell the smart characters?  

Even real life parents are more likely to ask for their kid to rephrase their sentence while using simpler terms, and having seen this with my brother, it discourages the kid from even talking to the parent because they start to think a)they don’t understand them b)they are stupid and c)they have no middle ground to meet at. 

But The Brains parents are so caring and want Alan to never feel odd or like he can’t talk to them so they keep a dictionary- a very thick one- just to be able to talk to their son without having to make him feel like a bother for using words that aren’t every day regular people words.

What if our religion was each other? If our practice was our life? If prayer was our words? What if the Temple was the Earth? If forests were our church? If holy water—the rivers, lakes and oceans? What if meditation was our relationships? If the Teacher was life? If wisdom was self-knowledge? If love was the center of our being
