Africa is the oldest place in the world in terms of where human history first started and branched out, which is why many places in Africa are still populated yet look ancient

To the teacher who told me I was emanating aggression

You're not the first. You won't be the last. You're not original. And it will not affect me whatsoever.

I was 10 years old the first time a middle age white woman mistook my natural stance, intensity and usual passion for straight up violence.

Because that's how the educational system views little black girls. I spent my entire primary school being nicknamed "that dude" because no matter how sweet I acted, I was never feminine enough. Teachers called my mother swearing on their lives that I HAD to be a cheater because, there was no way I could be smart enough to constantly be in the top of my class. I was considered a ticking time bomb, one of my old teachers once described me to my parents saying that I "had violence sweating through my pores and riffles in my eyes". At 10 years old. With no record of fighting, yelling, not even one smart comment to a teacher.

It took me years to realize that it's just how lil black girls are treated. How we naturally scare the pale faces because of our obvious passion, a feeling they are unaware of.

I am not gonna look down when you tell me to. I know what I am made of. Your false sense of authority over me will not affect my pride. Look me in my riffle eyes while I show you day after day how superior I am.

I am powerful. I will not apologise for your own weakness.
