Thank you to @theblackoutofficial for providing resources on knowing your rights, how to protect yourself, where to donate, and how to find mental health resources if you need them right now.

Tumblr has always been a fierce believer in free speech and the power it gives to the people who wield it. Throughout history, free speech has been the most important tool used to fight for racial and social justice. The protests being held in honor of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery are no different. They are important. They should not be ignored or derided. The disproportionate violence Black people face from those who have power in our country is not acceptable. It’s on all of us, regardless of race, to stand up for what is right, to demand justice, and to demand change. 

Say their names.

Black lives matter.

gue pengen post a buch of words that i made when i'm cocoo

[dawnaalicia]

i'm mad at myself because i never get enough for people around me.

[dawnaalicia]

i messed everything fucked up. everyone want me to be disappointed. it hurts. if i did the right thing from the first time, maybe i wouldn't be this fucked up. it feels like they want to push me down, broke into a million pieces. it just hurt seeing that. but now everything its too late. i can't take him back. there is no home for him anymore. but i will stay here, waiting for you to come home.

[dawnaalicia]

leaving you is the best decision i've ever made.

[dawnaalicia]
