The only reason Pitbulls are considered bad or dangerous dogs is because of racism and the only reason people are starting to realize they’re not is because white People are suddenly going “wow this racist stereotype we imposed on a dog typically owned by black people is wrong and we should fight against this without ever acknowledging it’s racist roots.” So yeah pitbulls were never bad dogs and we always knew that, y’all are just racist.

About seven years ago, when author Bronwen Dickey started writing a book about pit bulls, she said she was intrigued by the reactions she go

The Ugly Racist Underpinnings of Pit Bull Laws – Nathan J Winograd

Bans may be more about bias than preventing bites.

Abstract Excerpted from: Ann Linder, The Black Man's Dog: The Social Context of Breed Specific Legislation, 25 Animal Law 51 (2018) (102 Foo

If you actually bothered to do any reading or educate yourself on the topic, you would know that around the 1980s Pitbulls, who had once been what the golden retriever is today, began to be associated with the black community which saw a major shift in how the dogs were viewed by society. They went from being an American classic to a dog that saw heavy breed restrictions and legislation and being feared largely by people because of their association with black communities. This isn’t a secret or even something that isn’t commonly known. You being uneducated about the subject is just your own ignorance. You’ll note I’ve provided articles in case you’d like to actually learn about this so you’ll be better equipped to engage in this topic next time around.

this is solid. if you love dogs you gotta know this. the better you learn the racial history behind criminalizing pitbulls and the more genuinely you commit yourself to, first-and-foremost, opposing the abuse of other human beings, the better you also protect dogs impacted by the runoff from these heinous viewpoints. you know what DOESN’T help save pitbulls? denying the incredibly insideous reason they were targeted at all - because of fear and hatred of black people - and failing to solve the root issue FIRST. be loud about racism and hatred toward other humans, it poisons everything, and the more time spent focusing only on the bits that reach you personally is more and more lives harmed and prematurely + unjustly ended.

About an hour ago, I was in Walmart looking for my conditioner because today is wash day for my hair. As I’m looking for my product, this older white lady approaches me and she says, “Excuse me, miss. Please don’t be offended by this.” And usually when white people tell me not to be offended, 9 times out of 10, whatever they are about to say is going to be offensive af.

Anyway, she follows it up with, “My husband and I just recently won our custody battle with our foster daughter and she means the world to us. She’s a beautiful African American girl and her hair looks a lot like yours. But I’m afraid because I don’t know what to do with her hair. It’s a lot different from mines and our other children and we are at a total lost. I’ve tried looking up the YouTube videos and my husband went to the braiding shops so they can teach him how to properly braid her hair, but he’s still pretty new and it will be a while before he gets used to it. Do you have any tips you can give me? If you don’t have the time, it’s okay, really! I just needed a little advice because I want her to look beautiful.”

Y’all. swear I almost started crying on aisle 6. So for the last 30 minutes, I spent my time talking to her and what products to use and how to properly detangle and comb her hair with the proper tools and what not to do with natural hair. And I showed her a bunch of easier to follow natural hair tutorials on YouTube and saved them for her. (I also had to create a YouTube account for her so she could save it for later.) but omfg, she was so sweet, and I could tell that she listened to every single thing I had to say and she took little notes on her little notepad.

And what really filled my heart was the fact that her husband actually taking classes from African braiding shops. And she showed me a picture of him wearing a little sweater vest and loafers in a little shop surrounded by beautiful black women showing him how to braid black hair and even the lady he’s braiding on is guiding his hands. And omfg. Bless these old white people and their black daughter who I know have new loving parents because they are willing to step out of their comfort zone just to make her feel and look beautiful.

I really hope our paths cross again one day, Mrs Cicilia. 💖💕
