mood. i wish we had juneteenth festivals like atl does.

 

 

 

Black America is in hell. Everything is going wrong, collective net worth still declining, boomers are aging and their children don't have the means to retain land in cities.

 

I'm probably going to have to sell my family home.

Somebody should've lit a match.

 

 

Black gurl ranting:

 

Spoiler

I've come to the conclusion that I dont like white men? 

Like, it's a weird and sudden shift for me. My relationship is ending and I'm back on the apps and... most are a huge turn off? Anyone want to work through some anti-white gay feelings? Or should I just "no whites"?

Gen X obsession with sticking by their prominent figures is insanity, but it's not limited to them even.

 

Diddy ain't our family fr, I'm not celebrating knowing he was a bad person. It doesn't really matter what the charges were.

I used to be into white men as much as anyone else and now, after getting out of a relationship and looking around, they're suddenly unattractive... I kind of dont know how that happened. 

Some of the most despicable people have platforms and we don't have younger people that are normal and decent to take their place.

 

 I'd prefer if we had a young person in the streamer world who was more politically aware and used their platform for advancement, instead of brain rot.

 

It's frustrating.

I've seen this happen to people who are more serious about settling down.

It's gotten to a point where I genuinely don't want to associate with anyone who isn't black. They all hate us. And if they don't actively hate us, they don't respect us. Don't know what took me so long to learn this. Teens and young adults throwing the N word around carelessly and you're told to get over it when you confront them. Or even worse they turn it on you and call you a racist for some reason. They gaslight black folks about how our people have been treated for centuries in this country. Other minorities will use us as a scapegoat or a stepping stone to get closer to whiteness. I see it daily on the internet, I see it at my job, I'm over it. Completely over it. The USA is ******. I would never want to raise a black child in this evil anti black world.

You start bringing up things they can do, and you get ignored lol, mention supporting reparations and bills that can fix the racial wealth gap, and your suggestions are ignored, despite those being concrete things that can change people's lives. 

 

 

 I've been doing more reading lately. 

 

I get how attractive apathy looks rn, but I don't think we should go down the road of pessimism. We have to keep the fighting spirit, if not for anyone else, for us. Because clearly, with the way our conditions worsen under both democrat and republican presidents, the country getting more right wing, being pessimistic won't cut it.

 

I see how Native Americans are just over it completely, and I unfortunately fully understand their perspective. 

 

We have been extremely lenient in response to usage of the N word, some Black folks used to shoot white people over

Sorry you feel that way 

 

Anti-blackness is pervasive, but I have to be reminded (a lot) that there are people of all creeds and colors on our side and not to be an isolationist doomer.

black twitter dragging druski for #that comment. bieber dont sound black at all lol. saying someone "sound black" or "dress black" feel like an excuse to uplift white people in black spaces imo.

It's loser ****. 

 

We're so self deprecating it's a problem. John Brown died for our cause and we still don't call him Black, but someone singing over shitty r&b is an Honorary Black 💀

the way our people quickly welcome cosplaying men into our culture is disgusting. then have the audacity to heavily scrutinize the next black man bc he dont fall into the YN mentality/aesthetic.

I've always hated this. It's prevalent here in the UK too.

 

Some Black Brits will be so quick to invite yt's to the barbecue or call them "OluwaEthan", "AdeConnor", *insert any typical yt name mixed with a Nigerian name* for doing the bare minimum for things that Black people already do and are better at

i wish our community was more headstrong like the native americans. bc wearing they costumes, even for halloween, they will lash and never fwu again. we already deal w colorism within the community, inviting in yt culture vultures adds a new element of disrespect.
