A young Thomas during vespers

Thinking of the how every saints at one point had sang, and I just thought of our dear theoligian and what his voice would've sounded like.

This Latina woman is getting a quick lesson in, "Yes, you're light skinned, but you're not White skinned". As an Afro-Latina myself (my mother), I feel for those Latinos who did not vote for Trump, because now, because of the "minority majority" of their groups, the "good ones", the non-racist ones, have to pay for the others decisions. The sister in the video is right, stop making these #TikTok videos of y'all crying all over the place, because it giving "White woman tears" as far as I'm concerned, but "White women tears" are backed-up by this White supremist American system, and "Latino or Black tears" still gets us, shot, hunted, beaten, hosed, pepper sprayed, profiled, and marginalized. 60+ % of Latinos went against the warnings of Black people, mainly Black women, and now the day of your reckoning is upon you. I had to tell my mom to stop getting upset about what's going on, and that [They] made their bed, and now they will lie in it. This will all one day pass, and come next time when you Latinos are faced with a choice between humanity and White supremacy, let's see how well you remember this moment. Tengo un lugar en mi corazon para mi gente latino, pero ustedes deben aprender como lo hemos hecho nosotros. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🖤🤎💗
