This is cool but y’all gonna add audio to Swahili or naw?
My thing with this weird romanticism of hood niggas is that y’all don’t do with the women from the hood.. They hoodrats and everything in between and are constantly disrespected.
Only women have that fascination. Men that leave the hood not looking for hood girls
We so lost
LBGTQ folks fight for LBGTQ rights. Veterans fight for veteran rights. Native Americans fight for Native American rights. Women fight for womens rights. Black folks fight for civil rights… Who is civil?

Light Skin People: I don't have any privilege!
30 Light skin Privileges Light Skin Blacks Have
Having the ability to deny or not acknowledge that colorism exists.
Be recognized as a symbol of post racism.
It is assumed that you are race neutral when issues of race are raised.
Being standard of beauty in the Black and Latino community.
Being called Black based on the antebellum era one drop rule.
Being racially ambiguous.
People automatically assuming you are mixed and it is seen as a positive attribute.
It is automatically assumed that you are more intelligent than the darker members of your racial group.
Not being seen as angry unlike the darker members of your racial group.
Being considered less threatening by the Eurocentric mainstream based on the color of your skin.
People not making the assumption that you grew up poor unlike your dark skin counterparts.
Being allowed to recognize the variety of your racial/ethnic heritage without ridicule.
Within African American culture being called a “redbone” is regarded as a compliment while being called “darkskin” is considered derogatory.
Having someone tell you that your light skin is better than dark skin.
Can color, dye, relax, or weave your hair without it being seen as an act of self-hate.
The assumption that your relaxed hair and chemically processed curls are your natural texture.
Not being told that, “You are pretty for a dark skin girl.”
Your skin color being valued by some who purposely wants to erase their ethnicity and hates their own skin color.
Taking advantage of skin color privilege depending upon the situation. For example, applying for scholarships for African Americans and Latinos and later passing for other than a minority.
You have a better chance of landing a job than a darker person with the same credentials.
You have better opportunities for education and jobs prospects.
Because of your light skin your relatives may of have had access to Black sororities, fraternities, and other organizations that promoted intraracism.
Your images are reflected in all forms of the Black and Latino owned media.
People who look like you rarely portray the stereotypical maid, downtrodden, Sapphire, and dysfunctional Black women roles on television.
You always play the Black and Latino wife on television.
Being able to be biracial, multiracial, or light skin and still play a Black, Asian, Latino and White person on television when people of a darker hue cannot.
Not having people in entertainment making songs or comments disrespecting your skin color.
If you are light skin Latino you don’t have to prove it.
If you are a light skin Latino it is automatically assumed that you speak Spanish.
You or your family have much more likely have immigrated to America leaving your darker skin counterparts behind.

To all the fake ass "I love black women" fellas out there
You don’t love black women, you love black models. You love lightskinned models with full lips, curly hair and a small waist. If she’s dark skinned she’s curvy, weighs 100 pounds and has perfect skin. You don’t love black women, you love black breasts and big asses for your own personal pleasure. You don’t love black women, you love the idea of loving black women to not seem like a bad guy but you see a black girl walking down the street and pay her no mind (and when you do it’s probably to look at her butt.) Don’t sit there and say “I love black women” meanwhile you know in your heart that the only thing that crosses your mind when you think of a black woman is her body.
THANKU
so this is to all the guys on tumblr basically
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 finally someone said it
Someone post this on Twitter please
huh? so because every black man doesn’t stop you in the street to say how we love your melanin skin now it’s we really don’t love you?
Did you just skim through the post? No one is asking for black men to sit around and praise melanin all day. This post was to a select group of black men (as stated in the title) who put on this facade that they love black women but they actually are just going with the hype and could actually care less about them and or only like a select group of black women while simultaneously putting down another group. For ex: Kodak Black just made a video “shutting down haters” by saying he loves black women…just not one that’s as dark as him they have to be yellow. Lil Wayne’s daughter is a little dark skin princess yet only raps about “redbones.” I know ample amount of men who only like the idea of black women and you ask them why and they can only name physical characteristics and in the same breath bash black women because “they have attitudes.” But, like I said to someone else in this post who was offended, if you think this post doesn’t apply to you then great, keep scrolling but if you were hurt enough to respond then I did my job, some self evaluation may be needed. It’s funny though, whenever I see a post about some of the negative aspects that some black men have there’s nothing but “not all black men are like this” yet go on a post or a tweet bashing black women and there’s nothing but clapping emojis and laughing faces coming from black men. But I digress…
hmm how can you tell a real “i love black women” black man from a “fake ass I love black women” black man?
If you actually want something, you can have it. The question then is what do you mean by actually want? And the answer is, you reorient your life in every possible way to make the probability that that will occur as certain as possible. And that’s a sacrificial idea right? It’s like, you don’t get everything, obviously… But maybe you can have what you need, and maybe all you have to do to get it is ask; but asking isn’t a whim, or today’s wish. You have to be deadly serious about it

Hi so I need some help.
I’m really low on money for the next week and I’m between paychecks because of my new job, plus I’m still waiting for the money I earned for working interviewing last Monday. I have $40 to my name until next Friday and I need to buy groceries and pay my phone bill which is $55. If someone could slide me a couple bucks I’d really appreciate it. My squarecash is $sithprincex and my PayPal link is https://www.paypal.me/ajfund
If you can’t help me, I totally understand. I appreciate any and all help, donations or signal boost. Thanks everyone.
