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.

NASA pilot Victor Glover CLAPS back after being asked what it means to be the first black man to visit the moon: “It’s the story of humanity, not black history, not women’s history, but that it becomes human history.” “I also HOPE we are pushing the other direction that one day we don’t have to talk about these first. That one day, this is just—and listen to this—that this is the human history.”




Happy 50th Birthday to Sterling K. Brown!



What are Black boys “going through” at home that Black girls aren’t?





"What are Black girls going through at home that Black boys arent?" See how ridiculous the question is when reversed? Black boys arent even allowed to have a particular lived experience, their maleness can only be acknowledged insofar as to negate their entire being. Degendering.
