For the love of bows

A hopeless romantic slowly figuring out what she wants out of life... follow my thoughts @Le_Sphynxie

The whole purpose of black excellence and black girl magic and black boy joy is to allow black bodies to exist in anti black spaces while celebrating who they are. Yes, we live in a racist society. Yes, by virtue of being black, especially if you are dark skinned, people will overlook and underestimate you.

But what makes black people beautiful is our ability to create life and culture and meaning in a vacuum. They give us nothing and we’re still able to turn it into something.

And for that, there is reason to celebrate. Celebrate our survival, our ability to thrive, our ability to persevere.

I’m so tired of stereotypes that come along every Black women. And the fact that they were created by the white media really pisses me off! I am very proud of all Black girls and I admire all their accomplishments despite the hate of the modern society. 

#BlackGirlMagic is not just a hashtag, it strengthens our self-respect and emphasizes our importance!

overheard a girl’s phone conversation on the bus where she angrily asked the person on the other line why she had to call on someone else’s phone - “why did you block my number?? yes you did! then why didn’t you answer my calls or texts???” and i was like damn, this girl is mad, i kinda feel bad for whoever she’s talking to. then she said “no, grandma, LISTEN” and i was like grandma, the fuck? how could you?
