A few things about me: 1. I STILL celebrate ALL Black women and girls. 2. I STILL ๐Ÿ–ค Black history. 3. I struggle with anxiety and depression. 4. I'm against white supremacy. 5. I'm an avid bibliophile. 6. I'm a Black feminist. 7. I STILL block with impunity.

Sit down and let's have a wee chat about "low information voters" and who they REALLY are. Black political and Black folks Twitter aren't buying Cassidy Hutchinson's "I'm A Pretty White Woman With Tears" apology tour. We know who she is by the company she chose to keep and the

@_shukura_ You forgot the abuse. Perry makes sure the Black heroine goes through hell in a gasoline thong before she's allowed a "happy" ending. That whole "long suffering mule" trope.

PSA: Every white woman fangirling over Liz Cheney is loudly telling Black women just how unreliable and untrustworthy that demographic really is. Then again, their suffragist foremothers threw Black women under the bus, so this behavior is par for the course.

While we're cheering DA Fani Willis, let's make damn sure she's being PROTECTED. When you see misogynoir aimed in her direction - be it from the right and the left - call it out and cuss 'em out. Let' em know we're not playing.

Former Ren-Faire re-enactor and historical costume nerd here. One comment from people that always makes me cringe is the "oh, I wish I lived in (whatever) that era." No. You. Fucking. DON'T. Lack of sanitation. Lack of medical knowledge. Childbirth. Bridgerton isn't REAL.

So #CarleeRussell is home safe, yet because she's a Black woman, assholes are now claiming she faked the whole thing. Sounds to me like the only ending these shits want for ANY missing Black woman or girl is for them to be found DEAD. That is some fucked-up pathology.

The book They Were Her Property utterly destroys Rebecca's nonsense post. The notion of "white woman not knowing better" is just an excuse. From enslavers to the Daughters of the Confederacy to the Mary KayKayKay, white women have cheerfully upheld white supremacy.

@shannonrwatts White women have also been the most manipulated and weaponized by white men, and they are still abused by them. More women need education and open arms once they realize theyโ€™ve been duped.

You have NO IDEA how exhausting you are to us - online and in real life. You demand we forgive. That we move on and not saddle you with our messy emotions because emotions are part of what makes us HUMAN - and you still don't believe that we ARE. You know what happens to anger

We've got a Black father doing right by his wife and little girls. Those girls will remember this forever and they'll respect the man who showed them this kind of love. Then we've got broke ashy dusty who's in a mess of situationships and only knows how to be a sperm donor.

Exhibit A of a ww being more concerned about my tone in responding to racism rather than the racism itself is everything I needed to know. Blocked. She needed to demand peace from the racist woman who tried to whitesplain the "benefits" of enslavement.

The "anti-woke" crowd's real problem with Chevalier - based on the life of Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint-Georges - is that his story directly flies in the face of their racist belief that Black people lack the intelligence to not just succeed, but to be BETTER.

@TichinaArnold There is no "emasculation of the Black man". This question is straight from the Daniel P. Moynihan playbook and has done untold damage to Black women and children. Black women have intersecting identities and yet we're told that only ONE should matter. Black men have issues, true
