I get road rage walking behind people.

After everything R. Kelly has done, a good portion of the Black community, men AND women, still think that creep is innocent and/or care more about his music than the young Black girls he has abused. I just don’t get it. It feels like I’m in the damn Twilight Zone. To all the victims of abuse, if you ever feel like no one cares: I CARE ABOUT YOU! I CARE ABOUT YOU! Remember that.

Being pro-black does NOT mean you are required to unconditionally support black people who have done terrible things

so my brother was telling me about this human resources certification he attended a while ago. in a panel, the panelist asked a bunch of people in attendance, “who here knows if an applicant for a job is right for it in under 60 seconds?”

hands shot up around the room, people smug about their ability to “weed out the riff-raff” when it came to hiring for their fortune 500.

“you should all be fired and probably in jail,” they said, waiting for the whole room to get uncomfortable, then continued, “because the only things you can really learn about a human being in under 60 seconds are all things that are fueled by prejudices and biases covered by american law. so now, i will teach you how to stop being racist, sexist, judgmental assholes and hire people that will better your company of employ.”

I need this to be force taught at all companies

This is a good example of why study after study after study has shown that discrimination against racialized people looking for work is very real. Oh, and don’t get too smug if you’re not in the USA - similar studies have shown that the same shit happens in Canada, Germany, the UK, Sweden - basically in every country you can think of.

This joke isn’t about shaming that type of woman. This joke is not about that. Whatever kind of woman you are, you’re quiet, you’re fat, you’re small, you’re big, you’re tall, you’re loud, you don’t know much, you got a gill, whatever kind of woman you are… you are right. That’s it. Whatever you’ve chosen to be, whatever you wanna be, you are correct in being that as long as you are happy. My point to you is, if you are the shy type, if you are the wallflower, if you are the shrinking violet, if you are another… floral metaphor that has to do with being an introvert, my point to you is that you don’t want the guy who wants you because of that energy. A man who wants a woman because she looks scared… is a sexual predator. Okay? All these girls that he could hit on, he picks the one that’s like, shivering like a wet chihuahua. Like a nervous street urchin just in a corner putting out all kinds of “no” vibes. You don’t want the guy that walks up and is like “Excuse me. I couldn’t help but notice you looked terrified. Wanna see my dick?”

FIGHT LIKE A GIRL

taint3edcakes

Black mothers stop giving unconditional love to your black sons and treating them like kings while you punish your daughters for everything and forbid they prosper and treat them like maids in training. It isn’t making the world a better place like lol yeah your daughters are going to college and getting degrees but your sons are abandoning their children they are creating and laying on shawties’ couches for free. Do better.

because we're not really out here to play are we???

My mom literally told me that I had the sickle cell disease and not to even try and be with a black guy because if he had it and we tried to have a baby it would die. She told me that when I was in elementary school and I believed it until I was 17 years old.

My mother made me hate myself by telling me I was naturally more dirty because I was half black, especially in my girl areas.

Before I was born I had already been called a nigger by 3 family members.

My mom called me and my brother niggers when we messed up, along with telling very racist jokes and forcing us to laugh at them.

Being mixed fucking sucks when you have a racist ass parent. People seem to think if someone fucks a black person they can’t possibly be racist but I swear they are the most racist ones and when they get caught up they play that card.

People need to read this . Then read it again so it soaks in.

Please y'all. Especially look out of those “I want a mixed baby” type bitches.

My friend, Marina (Mexican and Black), said whenever she and her siblings would do something naughty when they were younger (like regular children) her mother would say “it’s because y'all have nigger in you” or “ y'all wouldn’t do this if the damn nigger in you was calm”.

fuck the police

Soldiers? REALLY? Y’all wildin. Love soldiers! Respect soldiers. Soldiers who abuse very very very likely have severe PTSD, and yeah their family needs to get away from them, but it’s absolutely no reason to hate them. Fuck you tbh.
