Re-reading...
I was re-reading one of my ask answers and realized that the person said “black” women. With the quotes. Why would you say “black” women tho? Aren’t they Black women?
Quick note
Black Blog ≠ Google.
If you are really concern about the PoC struggle, Google is your best friend. I got a few anonymous questions that I won’t answer based on this. Sorry. I am still learning Black history thanks to your Euro-Centric ways.

Help Change a Single Black Mother's Life
whatwhiteswillneverknow:
Yesterday, we reblogged this post of Black mothers having to work harder because if their children is not upkept, they can have their mothering questioned. And we are modeling this blog into a general platform to talk about the daily struggles of American PoC.
However, we find it more effective if we show you a live case. So, with that in mind…
Meet Ani Lacy. She’s...

When we don’t have audio/visual feedback, we can only determine maturity by the subjects choosen and how they choose to tackle it. It’s why...

I'm a Man...
So, yeah… a few men whining on my dashboard, claiming to be attacked for their postings. “I won’t apologize for being a man”… geez, someone is insecure with their feelings.
I remembered a period of my life when people doubt that I’m… you know… a man. I done things that people would call me “gay” for. I used to walk in a particular way...

Anonymous asked: Clarification: I'm a she. And I was offended about the use of rapists and Hitler as a comparison to some fictional TV-persona or the tagging thereof or whatever-the-fuck. I could give two shits about April Kepner. K THANKS.

aprilk-epner:
toying around with the idea of blocking anyone who bashes April in her tag, this is getting so annoying. I don’t go into her fucking tag to see your bullshit post about how you wish she died instead of Lexie or about how you don’t like her. Your post is irrelevant to the tag.
and 90% of the April hate posts are just the same one or two sentences about how you think she’s annoying...

Questions…
Why y’all act like 26, when y’all younger than that?
Why y’all gotta be so damn far away?
Y’all can get it… whatever it is to y’all. Like if it is a poem, or a song, or $10K, or student loans payoff or sugar daddy priviliages, lemme know.

A test for white people

Answer this question:
What does it mean to you to be white?
Answer honestly.
If your answer was “nothing,” then you have A LOT of reflection, critical thinking, and research to do before you ever even TRY to relate and talk to PoC.
It means my skin can burn in the sun easier, and that my skin color genes are recessive, so that with enough...

I understand only on a small scale when I’ve run little groups. You can’t please everyone, and not every one is grateful, but I am thankful to you for introducing me to two awesome people. :D

"Fandoms" Are Strange People - I fear 50% of...
I love fans. I love fandoms. I really do. I love being part of a community of supporters so they can keep something going. And I used to run TWO fan websites during a point in my life.
They were called Brandy-Fan and The Boondocks Fan.
With Brandy-Fan, I did it for the love of Brandy. I started it way back in 1997 and kept it running until I lost the domain name in 2000. And I got very...

Anonymous asked: Did you really just compare April Kepner, a fictional character, to both Hitler AND rapists? I'll give you a moment to let that sink in and then another moment to STOP BEING A DOUCHE and never compare anything *ever* to either of those things again. You really shouldn't need that much time to figure it out though. That's being generous.

Who the hell is April Kepner...
… and why are people bugging one of my followers about tagging her? It’s like telling us to only tag nice things about George Zimmerman, or great things about Adolf Hitler, or “not all rapists are evil” in “rape culture”.

WatchThe one piece of advice that I got from a TV show about love (and indirectly long-distance relationships). I shorten it to just 1 minute.
Yes, this is from Blossom and yes, I have watched this show at the time it came out. Of all the shows scenes, this one stuck out to me the longest. It predates before I would met my first serious relationship.
Funny how TV can influences you like that.

Letter to My Gay Protector
Dear Joseph,
I’m playing “Roses” by Smif-N-Wessun, looking at a picture of you. My father told me a lot of the things you done, which is why he doesn’t strictly follow a religion anymore… at least that’s what I’m thinking.
I’ve been told you were gay from a youngster and I remember going to church, thinking that being friends with you was an...

Sister Vs. Sistah Vs. Queen Vs. Woman Vs. Ms.
I followed a lot of Black Empowerment blogs. I am trying really hard to reshape my thinking. However, I do run into… conflicts. Like this one.
What to call a Black woman to show that you’re friendly…
Some women dislike being called Sister or Sistah (This would be a reference to “we are all one”). Some people don’t like to be called Queen because they feel I...

No I’m not taking vocal lessons lol And maybe I want you to only to listen to my voice!
I like your voice. :) I was just suggesting vocal lessons to make a wide range of effects. It’s not just singing, it can be applied to speaking as well.

I see vocal lessons in your future.
Like, I have to put on headphones to listen to that video. Makes me want to ask you to just go “meow” for the hell of it. :)
