It isn’t good versus bad. It’s indifference and feeling defeated that allows evil to flourish. Vote. Badger those you know to vote.

You’re in the greys but someone joking about the numbers that must constitute Brazillian Black women is there for all the world to see like shit on the pavement.

First you need to drag the women of America into this post.

It’s frightening as fuck.

Brazil is majority black. Try another joke.

We are Brazil and Brazil is us. We might as well have lit a gasoline trail through the globe with our trash president. And even though this was posted heading into the weekend, at under forty comments, white feminists can’t be counted on for shit.

We’re living in a society that places more and more currency in being ambiguous. There are studies showing that white people’s perception of you changes by merely being told a person is mixed. Anti-Blackness is insidious, and this child is in the clutches of it.

Oh I get it. So many variables go into how any person identifies. I have pale as ghost cousins I used to assume were white when I was a child, and my mom had to sit me down real quick and let me know that wasn’t the case (even though adults in the family would literally pass them by in the street and not notice them,…
