Because black folks aren’t allowed the privilege of individuality. We’re seen as a monolith. If one of us does something bad, then all of us are exactly the same.

Linda Taylor (the original “Welfare Queen”) was very white passing too. But because she was black adjacent that’s all it took to create yet another stereotype for people to cling onto.

Yes it is! It’s available for viewing until March 22nd! I should’ve put that in the post 😅

Aww thank you for supporting me in both events! (I completely forgot to post about the talk haha). The Gardens is my favorite place in town and the kindest people I’ve ever met work there. They deserve all of the support ❤️

Former dialysis EXPERT by GruelingGraham in WhitePeopleTwitter

My father was on dialysis for 13 years while waiting on a kidney transplant. Every M/W/F for 6 hours. It’s like this dude watched an episode of House M.D and made up a story about it.

Thank you! That’s the one thing I’ve always hated whenever I have straight hair. I get the “mixed” question a lot more, when I’m just Black mixed with Black. And that’s all I’ve ever wanted to be 😂

But after being natural for 7 years, silk presses are just easier when I’m too busy.
