Currently reading "Uses of Anger," by Audre Lorde At work there's a guy who's been harassing staff for years. In the last 2 days I've listened to him scream with cops present for 20-30 min. It amazes me what non-Black & Brown people can get away with.

constantly discovering and dealing with the emotional realities of losing my mother at a young age. whew, grief just morphs.

You and your people have been able to whisper sweet things and grit revolutions through their teeth in your mother tongue. What does that taste like? Freedom?

Another author who speaks about their complicated relationship with their mom - Janet Mock. We often avoid talking about how many of us were raised by everyone BUT our mom. I love hearing about her experiences on Oʻahu. The juxtaposition of being raised in multiethnic homes.

Saying “aint” doesn’t mean I’m ignorant, it means I don’t code switch Saying “son” doesn’t mean I’m ignorant, it means I’m from Brooklyn Speaking Spanglish doesn’t mean I’m ignorant, it means I’m bilingual Policing my language doesn’t mean I’m ignorant, but it does mean you are.

@GodsGift1229 @Skool_boi Hey, I'm 13 yrs locd. @GodsGift1229 is right. This is a good. Be careful of too much oil build up. Use a clarifying shampoo twice or so a year to help your locs breathe after dousing it with oil regularly. Also, do a deep conditioner treatment so that moisturizer soaks in.

@Skool_boi That’s because you have good hair and it’s dyed. Moisturizer: Rose Water spray bottle + rose + water 2-3x’s/ a day Moisturizing oil: Jamaican Castor Oil applicator bottle + 2 oz Jamaican Castor oil + 2 oz coconut oil + 6 drops each peppermint, lavender, and rosemary oil

It’s been hard finding a good moisturizer for my locs, it soaks up everything I’ve tried if anyone has any suggestions let me know
