“you need to be quiet and let men be men. you think too much. you always have opinions. you want to question them. you have to pretend you dont know. its just how it is w men. let them think they have the right of way. its your place.”

I’m seeing on my dashboard and hearing from other POCs. Right now I’m tired of this stupidity and makes me realise that our community really does have to always affirm itself even in a shared struggle. And the more you travel, the more you hear and see it. Because I’m light-skinned and more easily assimilate into certain populations; I dunno, I mean people really...
i started reading the hunger games last night.
I like it a lot so far but i know its probably gonna be one of those books that makes me cry eventually :/

See, men, here’s the thing you don’t get: You’re not entitled to *shit*. Not a fuckin’ thing. You’re not entitled to a girl’s body, attention, time, you-name-it. She doesn’t appreciate your hitting on her and *dares* to say so? Yep, she can do that, and if your first reaction is “that bitch!”, then guess what, you’re not the “nice guy” you think you are — you’re a fucking douchebag...

& I’ve internalized a lot of racism, too. I know this.
Sometimes I think of how I would be beautiful if I changed my hair, or my skin color, and this sounds really pathetic. Partially because it is entirely pathetic, but I’m going to say it anyway, because it’s the truth for me.
& some people will...

but they don’t know hip hop.
If you did, you would have been done complaining about the same 5 songs playing on the radio. You would have been turned off the radio b/c that shit’s never going to change. We’ve been done crying about that shit.
If you think hip hop is dying/ dead like Nas stated, then you don’t know hip hop.

so we had a big falling out
because i was just tired of him not trying hard enough to understand me. and i was just goin off on him. and this time showing no mercy cuz i was just so tired of this same old conversation and he never gets anything out of it.
and then he asks me to explain to him how i feel and why i feel that way and in my head i was like “wtf do u think ive been doing im so over all this right now like...
re black feminism & Tumblr

You know, black feminists on Tumblr exemplify what it’s like when you have a community consciousness.
That’s one thing about black feminism. There is a focus on community: look out for your sister. Especially when she is attacked by white people and black men.
Just seeing how everybody responds when a white supremacist decides to do...

It’s hard to see myself as strong
