This Gorgeous Photo Series Crushes Stereotypes About Black Masculinity

Loftin shot the photo series after seeing the stark contrast between the Google results for “black boy in hoodie” and “white boy in hoodie.”

In contrast to the images of black men depicted in the Google image search, Loftin’s poses are sweet, affectionate, and sometimes silly.

“Black people, and black men specifically, exist outside of the stereotypes that have been created for us by the media and those that control it,” he told.

They always portray us as dangerous thugs in black hoodies, nothing new. And the fact that whites still believe that black people are dangerous to them proves just how ingrained white supremacism is in this country!

This man just wanted to say that racism is still a reality we have to deal with. Inferential racism certainly won’t go away by no one talking about it. We have to accept that there is a serious problem in America, that many white Americans are raised with these subtle cues all around them telling them to “fear blacks”.

Stop making up false stories about us, we are just people, just a little darker.

I’m just learning that people out here eating raw nuts and seeds !!! 

why don’t y'all soak your nuts before eating them ?

[trufflebootybuttercream-deactiv]

This guy told me he bought raw almonds and eats them out the bag I told him you suppose to soak them and let them sprout then eat them

He looked at me crazy

[trufflebootybuttercream-deactiv]

well I’m glad you asked @hydrophxle

To remove or reduce phytic acid. To remove or reduce tannins. To neutralize the enzyme inhibitors. To encourage the production of beneficial enzymes. To increase the amounts of vitamins, especially B vitamins. To break down gluten and make digestion easier. To make the proteins more readily available for absorption. To prevent mineral deficiencies and bone loss. To help neutralize toxins in the colon and keep the colon clean. To prevent many health diseases and conditions.

Nature has set it up so that the nut, grain, and seed may survive until proper growing conditions are present. Nature’s defense mechanism includes nutritional inhibitors and toxic substances that can be removed naturally when there is enough precipitation to sustain a new plant after the nut, grain or seed germinates. When it rains the nut, grain or seed gets wet and can then germinate to produce a plant. So we are mimicking nature when we soak our nuts, grains, and seeds.

Nutritional inhibitors and toxic substances found in nuts grains and seed can be minimized or eliminated by soaking. These inhibitors and toxic substances are enzyme inhibitors, phytates (phytic acid), polyphenols (tannins), and goitrogens.

SEED: Shipping Container Emergency Housing

by Clemson University Department of Architecture with Tri-County Technical

Utilizing an existing surplus of shipping containers, students from Clemson University’s Department of Architecture partnered with Tri-County Technical College, to research and develop an affordable housing solution for the Caribbean Region. 

Caribbean nations inherently import more goods than they export generating a steady surplus of shipping containers.  Shipping containers are designed to carry massive amounts of cargo and withstand extreme weather conditions making them a logical housing component.  Constructed entirely of steel and reinforced with eight corner post moment connections and corrugated steel walls, a 40′ shipping container can carry 67,200 pounds and resist overturn when exposed to winds up to 140 mph.  Without modification a 40′ shipping container has 304 square feet of floor space and eliminates problems associated with insects, fire, and hurricanes.  With modification a 40′ shipping container can be a safe, comfortable, and environmentally friendly home for numerous local inhabitants.

The beginning design emerged as a system of event based solutions capable of providing immediate housing after hurricanes or natural disasters.  Local interventions and materials eventually develop into permanent additions creating an investment with a local identity.  Utilizing local skills, labor, and materials the final design is dynamic taking on a symbiotic relationship with the local cultures.  Eventually the ubiquitous container is embedded and made permanent providing an investment that can appreciate with time.

Florida mom launches vile racist rant at black neighbors — ‘You should have stayed in Africa!’

This video has gone viral. Tallahassee mom screams at Black teens who were passing by, calling them bitches and crack addict. The woman then racially insults the young Black neighbors and even rants about Martin Luther King. Even when her daughter tries to stop her, she refused to listen. I’m pissed off!

What chance does a child have when they have a mother like that?

Make it viral!

This is why we hate y'all. Never EVER think that it’s simply because you’re white.
