Dear Tumblr,
Welcome to #TheoriLayers. Discover your Theori at www.theorilayers.com
The truth about “All Lives Matter” is that not all lives have mattered — which is why we need to keep saying Black Lives Matter. | follow @the-movemnt
Reasons why Susie Carmichael is one of the greatest Black Cartoon Characters of all time
Her character was voiced by Cree Summer who played Freddie Brooks on A Different World.
She introduced culture to white suburbia.
Taught the babies all of the popular black dances.
And maybe even showed them a thing or two about cooking.
She was perpetually unbothered by Angelica’s nonsense.
Literally. Her shade-throwing skills surpass any other three-year-old.
But she was never afraid to cry.
Demand what she wanted.
Be a leader.
Get angry for the cause.
Defend the babies from Angelica.
Or anybody else who tried to mess with them.
Immensely talented.
And, smart AF. She could speak 10 languages by the time they were in high school.
Susie was just a magical black girl.

We need more examples to see black girls magic!
And her parents kept that head natural 👏🏾
So I’ve been overwhelmed by the black panther comicon appearance and I’ve been dwelling on how revolutionary the black panther movie is going to be, what it’s going to mean to countless people when this movie comes out and how long we still have to go, So I decided to put this short photoset together to illustrate exactly how big of a deal it is and how it is bigger than one person.
it’s so bittersweet because when I was younger (especially growing up where I did, a black kid in Finland) I really wished I had more access to imagery and media that reflected who I was because it would have made my life radically different for the better and I wouldn’t be at 26 (STILL) doing damage control but on the flipside, I’m so in awe of all of the beautiful talent in 2016 that younger black kids are able to see and be inspired by.
I think I was like 4 years old when I conciously picked up race and color via watching Disney’s “Aladdin” and I noticed how Jafar, the evil royal guards etc the villains were more ethnic looking or a shade darker than the “good” characters.
it’s insidious because you’re seeing something but at age 4, you don’t have the comprehension skill or knowledge to break it down and see it for what it is (Colorism, Societal bias against black people which is rooted in centuries of white supremacist doctrine, society associates things that are dark/darker colors with evil, danger, ugliness, dirt etc) and reject it.
so you pick it up and see it on a surface level and you think to yourself “well darker must mean ugly, criminal and less human”…then what happens when you look at yourself in the mirror and find out that you are black?
how is that going to impact how you see yourself?
and guess what? if a 4 year old black kid can pick that up and internalize that about him/her/themselves….then a white kid can sponge up the same language and imagery that dehumanizes black people too (subconciously/conciously)…what happens when when these people grow up? become teachers, doctors, law enforcement etc? what kind of impact is that going to have?
I’m going off on a tangent and that’s just one personal example but society does that on a global grand scale and it is largely unchecked.
but honestly though,look at the photoset and think about how many talented people out there that we love and respect….who would NOT have achieved the things they did if it wasn’t for another person before them inspiring them to reach their goals and acting as trail blazers when it seemed as though it was impossible….then think about the flipside and how many people, with all the potential in the world, never lived to become great because they were met with more images dehumanizing them than ones uplifting them…this is why the fight for HONEST representation is important and it continues.
argh, I didn’t plan on typing anything but I got in my feelings after watching this again
…anyway, here are some pictures to make you smile, the next gen gives me hope
and if none of that gets you going, here is a video of Michael Jackson surprising James Brown on stage and then thanking him for being his biggest influence (BET awards, 2003)
I hate dating. I hate the way people date now. I just want to be with the person I’m going to be with. I just want to know who I’m going to marry and start working towards building that life together. People nowadays date recklessly. We treat each other like we are trying on shoes: no matter how well something fits we still want to see how we look in something else. I want no part of that.
That analogy though fuck
Holy shit.
God damn
this.
CNN’s Don Lemon on police shootings: “When I am stopped by an officer - I shouldn’t have to be ‘yes,sir-ing’ anybody.”
Don Lemon lost the support of the Black community after a few controversial remarks that he made throughout his career. During yesterday’s CNN Tonight he shared his thoughts on the killings of two Black men that occurred earlier this week and they’re actually making everyone consider changing their mind. Let’s be honest - everything Don Lemon said was on point. I cannot help but think that until this day he was forced to say everything he said, because his words regarding police violence are pretty damn woke.

2016 is a very strange year
Did be just wake up ? Or is he going to say some dumb shit tomorrow
Mufasa came to him in a dream.
DON LEMON finally said something worth listening to. Wow.
Wow! Are his cooning days over, or is this prewritten? The mufasa gif killed me
well I’ll be damned
Watch: Liberal Redneck is thoroughly confused by the hypocrisy of people against Black Lives Matter
This seens like my kind of white person
buzzinga!
RNC attendees tried to hide a demonstrator’s “No racism, No hate” sign with an American flag. Clearly they failed to see the irony. The protester was from the Code Pink group — who haven’t been slowed down by this at all.
Using an American flag to cover up someone calling for an end to racism and hate is the best metaphor I’ve seen in a long time for the GOP.
white dude in this horror movie : *translates old arabic text* *somehow it rhymes perfectly in english*
Now I really wanna see a horrible faltering translation from one of these movies, like “Whomsoever enters this room, they shall… well, this word is like… literally it means ‘unbecome,’ but it was used as a euphemism for death, pooping, and—wait, when was this carved? was it 15th century? Cuz it was a euphemism for sex too in the 15th century. This is either a cursed crypt, a bathroom, or a royal bedroom. Who wants to roll the dice?”
“You guys, I’ve gotta be honest, okay? This thing’s written in some kind of weird localized dialect, and I’ve only ever studied the standard form of the language. I mean, this part right here…I can’t even tell if it’s some kind of error, or an obscure slang phrase…whatever it is, I have no idea what the fuck it means.”
‘this is written in ancient sumerian. it’s about… uh… well that word is… uh. okay this is either a poem about farming, or straight-up a nasty sex guide. it might be both. i want a shower.’
“okay see the thing is in one dialect this word is the name of a terrifying Demon but in a completely different language from the same area that has the same writing system and gave a lot of loan words to the first, it means ‘horse’ - and the context is really not helping”
“You know what? This thing is bound in human skin and the walls are bleeding let’s just leave.”
Police Shoot Unarmed Man and his 6-Year-Old Autistic Son in the Head Multiple Times Killing Son
As of Thursday morning, at least 834 people had been shot and killed by American police officers so far this year.
Six-year-old Jeremy David Mardis is the youngest among them.
The autistic first-grader was sitting in the front passenger seat of a car being driven by his father, Chris Few, in Marksville, La., when city marshals “allegedly” attempted to serve the man a warrant about 9:30 p.m. Tuesday night. But when checked with the County Clerks office, no warrant could be found in the database.
Police claim Few fled, eventually turning down a dead-end street. And that Few then attempted to back his vehicle out, striking officers’ cruisers, prompting an exchange of gunfire between the officers and driver that left him hospitalized and his son dead.
However, An official briefed on the shooting said that Few was unarmed when two officers opened fire, shooting between 13 and 18 bullets combined. Five of the officers’ bullets pierced Jeremy’s body, Mayeux said, with the two fatal shots hitting him in the head and chest. That official said it is unclear if the shooting was captured on camera.
The police involved in the shooting all had criminal records including rape.
After the officers names were released, It didn’t take long for local press to uncover extensive rap sheets for both officers:
Derrick Stafford, the officer indicted for rape, also has five pending civil suits against him for various complaints of excessive force, including breaking the arm of a 14-year-old girl on a school bus as well as assaulting and pepper-spraying a 15-year-old boy at a Fourth of July celebration.
Norris Greenhouse Jr., the other officer implicated in the murder of 6-year-old Jeremy Mardis, is named in several of the same suits for acting in tandem with Stafford.
Louisiana State Police announced on Wednesday that they had launched an investigation into the incident at the request of the Marksville Police Department.

This is disgusting..What are the people in this country do..he was 6 years old for crying out loud
Six years old. What the fuck. This has to stop. It has to.

‘Ghostbusters’ star Leslie Jones exposes racist harassment on Twitter
On Monday afternoon, the Ghostbusters star and Saturday Night Live cast member tweeted that she was tired of receiving constant harassing messages with overt racist and sexist imagery. Jones announced that she was going to stop blocking her Twitter harassers so that their tweets and comments could be seen publicly in order to expose their offensive nature. Almost immediately, her fans sprung into action.
Repeat after me: "I am no one's last resort"
Or 2nd choice 😒
or Filler. or back-up.

I SCREAMING
OMG @chainofdisease
Watch: Franchesca’s third example shows how black people were deliberately kept out of certain areas.
This bitch again. Good lord, she’s a fucking idiot.
Your the only idiot here, why so uncomfortable??
Last time I checked, I wasn’t an idiot. If you’ve ever seen her videos, all she does is spout bullshit with no facts or evidence whatsoever, and then dozens of people debunk her stupid nonsense.
And you are straight pulling shit out of your ass. But it’s okay. Y'all love doing that
You sure that isn’t what the bitch up there is doing? Because she is doing exactly that.
Not that it matters if she is or not, she just made a video on useless facts. (if they even are facts)
Apparently they are facts, people in the notes are backing what she is saying. And just because your uncomfortable about the sickening history of this country doesn’t mean anything. You need to get over it. It the truth (the REAL truth). You don’t have to believe it, the truth will always be the truth.
It’s the truth because random ass people in the notes agree with her? I’m sorry, but I’m not going to instantly believe people on a website that demonizes white people. And I’m not uncomfortable with the history of this country. This country has its ups and downs, and throughout history there have been people from the same race/gender/etc. who disagree on things, so you can’t group them all together. And this chick is the type of person who tries to use the past to make white people in the present look bad.
Lol, you are so damn ignorant and willfully want to stay that way. If someone says they live in a certain place, chances are they live their. But go ahead feel like your race is being “attacked” when their being called out on the bullshit they perpetrate on a daily basis. Poor you. I’m done, stay ignorant.
Wait what? What the fuck are you even talking about? One thing, living somewhere is in no way “perpetrating” anything so I have no idea how you even managed to pull that one from your ass. And I never denied that anyone lived anywhere? Like, seriously, what the fuck are you even talking about? I’m just saying that the bitch is trying to make the race of a population into a problem when it isn’t a fucking problem.
I said I’m done with your extra ignorant ass. Be gone you dummy
Holy fuck another person saying “be gone.” Is that becoming a thing idiots say? Who the fuck even says that anymore? Also, thanks for avoiding the conversation completely.
Ok here’s your shot. Simple assignment.
Disprove anything in that video, without calling anyone out there name. Site your sources.
Bonus question: If you aren’t racist, and you know racism is a bad thing, and that it exists, why would this video bother you?
