At some point, we should talk about people who use language like someone’s “outfit belongs in the Civil Rights Movement” as an insult. Because there’s a very deliberate choice of words with a specific connotation instead of using a more neutral descriptor like vintage or retro.


People far better educated than I have tried to have this conversation with you, and the same way you dismiss Dr.Curry and Dr. Johnson you dismiss me, and disregard all the data that shows black males face unique challenges from schools and at home that result in failure.

I need more Black coming of age movies badly

@WES_WorldOrder Nothing is stopping Black men from doing the work for other Black men and boys by the way. For years I worked at a community center and it was full of women organizing for Black children. What is stopping Black men from being in the community and educating Black boys?


Black boys from low income areas are in a perptual state of mourning and survival due to violence inflicted at both the state and personal level. They’re losing close friends to violence and prison back to back. I work with “juvenile delinquents” this isn’t happening to B girls.







Any Black girls and women wanna start this chain off with a sob story about your mother’s mistreatment? Folks are under the impression that we are all spoiled with love.
