Why is it so profitable to pretend to be a Black woman? Yet being an actual Black woman significantly lowers your income in every profession? (This is rhetorical)

Listen Up. If a police officer tells you to just talk to them or tell them something so you won’t go to jail. Let them know you would like to speak to a lawyer. I know you want to be honest and be straightforward but you cannot speak to the cops alone. Do not write a statement

The worst part of these multiple romanticized depictions of Jeffrey Dahmer is they present him as a mastermind. When really Dahmer was allowed to drug,rape,kill, and eat countless black men despite multiple calls to police because they were homophobic and racist.
