If you are a Christian who is okay with the birthplace of Jesus being decimated and the people of Jesus being massacred, after reading Jesus - then you have a problem.
And you are a problem.
And you are yet, still, to have problems.
When the very same SAPS (per a doccie by Paul Verryn) take their passports away from them, only to come back later and assault and arrest them for being illegal?
That SAPS????
Anti-abortion activists hold a picket outside the Marie Stopes offices in Kensington B, Randburg.
They told EWN they are Catholics from across the country who are against abortion as it is a sin. TCG
I say “fuck” because that’s what racism deserves. I am from the “If they go low, I will fucking come for them” school of thought. I refuse to be polite or civil with anyone who does not acknowledge my full humanity.

The answers they are giving here are rubbish.
Black men know catcalling is disrespectful. They don't catcall white women because they feel white women are more worthy of respect than black women.
Good opportunity to ask.
Insisting on erasing someone's ethnicity, culture, history, ancestry because you don't understand it is a form of oppression too. This is a learning moment. Use it. To learn.
When she’s in SA, she is more than welcome to be coloured. To us in the states, she is Black. Because I cannot for the life of me tell what the difference is to ya’ll 😭
I wake up every morning convinced that today is the day that I will destroy patriarchy. And I go to bed each night knowing that patriarchy will most likely outlive me.
Within those parameters, how do I fashion a legacy?

Naomi Campbell used to get blood diamonds from Charles Taylor and she was on the Epstein list. She used to hang out with Weinstein too.
Everytime she is asked about these evil associates and associations she claims innocence or coincidence.
Her name
Negotiated freedom is always on the terms of the oppressor. When the oppressor has to be persecuted, they're excused. When reparations need to take place, there is reconciliation.
There are many dark skinned coloureds. It's an ethnicity. A heritage. It's own culture. History. History of oppression and development - inclusive of slavery unique to them. Ancestry.
This tweet is just proof that you are refusing to listen. On purpose. With arrogance.
The people in the comments 🤦🏽♀️. Like?! They're xenophobic, they're ignorant, they don't know their own rights, they don't respect the rights of others, they don't realise that even cops have rules that they must abide by...
Yhu.

while sitting in the back of an uber. Arrested because apparently:
I was a foreigner.
I had a gun.
I had drugs on me.
I was drunk.
When all was proven wrong and I wanted to file a complaint, the cops ran away from the station
i wish women with good experiences around motherhood shared more. i feel like only bad experiences are shared and it makes women not wanna experience such a beautiful thing.

If you're a family oriented person and an honest partner - this is not possible.
When you're breaking down over family issues and your partner is witnessing this - what are we to say? Sorry baby, I'm breaking down during the holidays because of work? Please guys.
I was today years old when I learnt that feminism plays inky pinky pinky with any random person with a vagina and gives them a plane to pilot.
Everyday is a day to learn ❤️.
Being white in South Africa can be tiring at times for me.
I don’t believe we genuinely experience well-being as white individuals.
We really don’t.
We are overcompensating for the past, and when our kindness gets abused, we are defenceless against this system each time.
There is no wise woman who has depended on a man financially who can come and recommend it to other women
I know there is a trend going on. But our mothers always told us to have a little going on for yourself. They knew what they meant.

The LGBTQI community is hell bent on recruiting kids. Now Somizi, a convicted sexual offender launches kids line.
Are yall seeing that Somizi is made and promoted for a certain agenda?
As a woman who has experienced the damage and trauma of clergy sexual abuse, teaching clergy sexual abuse this semester is going to be quite something. May I maintain the emotional strength to do so and do so well.
What confuses me most about the "you don't want to deal with a teen in your 60s" crew is that they seem to forget how many people were raised by grandparents.
Former CNN anchor Isha Sesay welcomes her first child at 47.
Many single women choosing to have a child by themselves after 40 instead of waiting for a partner.
Kevin Samuels passed away.
Y’all said nice things about war mongering white men John McCain and George Bush, who fought our civil rights and used anti-Black racism in their politics, so y’all can resist the urge to to speak disparagingly and celebrate the death of a Black man.
Chunks of it even. Which then gets wasted by ministers and their kids. Who will turn around and tell us that our parents didn't work hard enough to afford us that lifestyle.

I love how Chris Rock's joke "wasn't that bad" when it was purposed to embarrass a Black women, but now that he's gone for a white (deceased) woman people claim they "now understand why Will Smith slapped him".
Lol!!! It's too early for me to be this confused and irritated.
As an undergrad, I worked in retail, at a restaurant, and on campus. At the same time. And still needed funding.
Can we please be serious and realistic. If that isn't an option, silence is.
I think students who are struggling financially should consider working at a restaurant, doing promo gigs or sell something for extra cash . People are willing to help you if they see you try to help yourself . Into yok’phila ngama hand outs ayi spaani.
I so badly wish I was a fly on the wall of the boardroom where a bunch (?) fully functioning people (?) made the decision to replace Thomas Tuchel with Graham Potter.
How did his name come up? And then how did they convince themselves this made sense?
please please please women academics stop doing so much labor for free. The field will rightfully grind to a halt and be forced to compensate workers for their labor if you, like so many of us men in academia, refuse to be voluntold to work for free.
You realise her only connection to him is the CHILD they SHARE, right? How is one to leave him alone when the child must be provided for?? Who must do the providing???
Men know they aren't making sense. They know.
What does years of British colonialism and oppression have to do with Meghan Markle though???
Also, what's so great about this Commonwealth? What does it actually do for the countries that Britain colonised and enslaved??
Shame on Meghan Markle as her propagandists use the fantasy that the Royal Family is racist to derail Wills and Kate's Jamaican tour and destroy the Commonwealth.

The thing I’m wrestling with lately is that this seems to be the life cycle of a Black woman raising any concern:
1. Disbelief no matter what evidence I show.
2. Dismissal of the concern and generic platitudes.
3. Being left isolated.
4. When people realize you were correct
When you say you like football, then they wanna discuss the stats of that match that happened that one day in 1985 because bona they know so much🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️.
A week ago i was invited in a female space to contribute about gender equality. Truth be told many were angered that i was there. The energy of
"Why is he here?" Swept me off the feet and i wondered the source anger. Nonetheless, i stayed and listened through.
People's children are not there to be competed with. Also, competing with children for the attention of their own parent may be indicative of a problem within you.
Dating people with kids requires patience. I am not prepared to compete with a child for attention and their mother. Haikhona

That's what happens vele when forgiveness and reconciliation are awarded to people who were never sorry.
And they can rinse and repeat with Orania and Cape Independence because now even the forgivers are defending and accepting nonsense.
So Apartheid ends, no one is punished, nothing is actually addressed, the economic and educational landscape and outcomes are allowed to remain the same and we are surprise that people like Gouws exist. There are many like him living in our society.
Pitch Black Afro released from prison??!! After killing his partner?!?! And then telling cops that the blood was just because she was menstruating.
Happy Women's Month ❤️.
When are we going to be honest about the fact that committing (and supporting) a genocide in the name of Jewish people (when many Jewish people are speaking against it) is what is antisemitic??
And white supremacist.
And evil.

Today breathing isn't as difficult as it has been for the past few days, and I am so grateful. I'm in some pain, but I would choose this over being in such an awful and scary place that I struggle to breathe.

We have been living through several modernisations of colonisation.
Americans and Europeans.
There are people recruited into Cape Town for the purpose of Cape Independence.
This digital nomads situation… we have an America problem. They have ruined their country and now they are running to ours to ruin them. If we aren’t careful, we will have a modernised version of colonization.
