Years ago I wrote this & told myself to never forget Over time I let fear of making people uncomfortable take over, and I lost the confident part of myself that knew I not only deserve a seat at the table, but l'm building a table for others like me I won't forget again We belong Happy Juneteenth

My post that says: Today I'm officially done... done with listening to the lies and diminishing my experience... our experience... for the sake of appeasing the voices that wish to oppress us...
I've spent the majority of my life being told and shown that I was less than because of the color of my skin, the texture of my hair, the shape of my body, and the thoughts in my head.
•
That I don't deserve, that we don't deserve, the same level of achievement and success as our fair toned counterparts... because we're "different" and abnormal...
I don't give one flying phuck about the insecurities of our oppressors anymore... That gaslighting ends here. I care only about the elevation of us... all of us... as equals, living, breathing, creating, and achieving as celebrated humans, like everyone else...
I've spent so much of my time "stuck" feeling like I can only emerge and share my talents if it's significant or total excellence, for fear that anything less would be written off because we're so often written off regardless of our contributions... no more.
Like me, love me, hate me, detest me... you choose... but I choose me over fear, from now on... and I forever choose equality for all of us.

What happened to justice and liberty for all? “If you don’t use your voice, others will use your silence” We will never stop marching for justice, equality and humanity We built this nation, and we are stronger together than divided

A protest sign that reads: “if you don’t use your voice, others will use your silence! Viva La Raza”

At a protest, with the American flag and California state flag flying, and a sign that says “resist”

A protest sign that reads: “what happened to liberty and justice for all?”

Marching at a protest, a sign that says “stop pretending ur racism is patriotism”

My community is under attack and politicians are playing billionaire games with human lives What you see in the media is rooted in lies meant to divide. I’m in the streets, we are peaceful Words like “illegal” are meant to dehumanize so that you feel nothing while they abuse power. Don’t be fooled

Over the last 365+ days I’ve learned that you really don’t know much about life until you’ve provided care for someone at the end of theirs Caregiving is a painful, exhausting, humbling process of letting go & letting compassion lead When they go, part of you goes w them. I hope that part is peace

There’s a rising trend: accusing black people of being conservative, despite our record of being the opposite Often target black women as a racist/misogynoir tactic to erase us from the conversation. They’ve lost the plot. Scroll their posts, you’ll find more racism Sisters protect your peace 💙92%

Last month I watched yt people freak out over black folks morning routine, calling it evil, while ignoring society's demand we be perfect to be accepted This month I watched a yt woman get paid $750K to call a black autistic child the n word And they made it political But “racism doesn’t exist”

Love a void!! I really wanted to thank you for talking about the hatred and rampant racism and Islamophobia in your latest a*h tr*vino swoop doc. Especially lately, it’s been disgusting. But I felt your passion in how awful this is and that’s very meaningful.

I’ve been talking about the rise of weaponizing political division to serve a whitewashed agenda. Both sides are doing it. They tokenize minorities for gain or fake allyship, and erase & attack us when it no longer serves them or we dare have an opinion Don’t fall for it. We are better united

On my latest video I did a segment about ADHD dopamine chasing/cliffs, the comments are incredible! So thankful, esp in seeing black and poc talking mental health when it’s so stigmatized in our communities and so many feel invisible. Most my life I was told to keep it to myself, but never again! 💙

People who demean black women online for voicing our opinions are banking on systemic racism that taught us since birth, that if we defend ourselves, we’ll be met with racism and violence. This system is designed to keep black women living in fear and silence, cut off from freedoms given to others

Spiteful targeting of black women who are outspoken has reached an all time high & is the definition of racist misogynoir. Every time I see a non-black person continuously belittle a black women, while excusing it as individualized, is reinforcing racism & perpetuates the cycle of harm to all of us
