Being black at Twitter while tweeting to black twitter #nextplayxblackbirds #blacktwitter

@jacie_minnick Thank you for being such a great resource for your community! I’m over here stressed for you being so public on Twitter. I see your work!

@JessicaTayVlogs If y'all come, hit me up. I've got a whole lesbian crew who can show y'all a good time in the bay!!!

@JessicaTayVlogs Also.....unrelated but you and Tiffany should think about coming to San Francisco for Pride now that you’re in California!

@JessicaTayVlogs Yesssssss

@adri___ @murdoxlite And the weight that the past and the fight carries. Makes a lot of black women sensitive to appropriation. And I understand that 100%

@adri___ @murdoxlite But that doesn't negate that daily women are judged and have to fight that much harder over preconceived notions to prove themselves.

@adri___ @murdoxlite Of course. Things are changing. And yes a lot of black women are able to succeed for their value over their appearance.

@adri___ @murdoxlite If you're ever in the bay we should grab lunch and just openly talk about it!

@adri___ @murdoxlite In theory it sounds good. But in practice that's not he case. At the end of the day. Black women are still judged by the same styles

@adri___ @murdoxlite The media might accept it. But the hiring manager may not. It's much bigger than the media

@adri___ @murdoxlite Doesn't mean another black girl with the same afro can walk into a corporate office and be taken for her value beyobd her hair.

@adri___ @murdoxlite Just because solange is able to rock her natural hair and be the goddess she is.

@adri___ @murdoxlite You are right it's impossible to ignore it. But you can't base what's seen on TV and the media. For the lived experiences of black women.

@adri___ @murdoxlite Black women have done this throughout modern say history as well and should be held accountable table for it. Bit it's not from Europe

@adri___ @murdoxlite Appropriation comes from when someone with a certain privilege or societal power takes something frm another group that is criticised for it

@adri___ @murdoxlite And yes it's true black women can definitely and do appropriate cultures. But when it comes to European cultures. It's hard to appropriate.

@adri___ @murdoxlite What women on TV/media so is very different then what black women in their daily lives experience.

@adri___ @murdoxlite Sometimes they call this the Oprah defense. When people take examples from media and say "this person made it, so everyone can"
