some people enjoy helping the "less fortunate" as long as they remain the "less fortunate" #Ferguson

I still don't get how so many Black ppl can act surprised that there are loads of White supremacist racist White ppl who hate Black folks.

“conversations” on “race” are often based on the toxic assumption that this white, 19th-century concept is worthy of Black thought

without devout but subtle racism in Hollywood, the white-guy-as-underdog movie would be impossible to make, a story many love to tell

[]( "Octavia Jackson [Octavia_J83]") Between personal fund raising attempts, sabotaging, attn whoring, and all other dustiness, I can see why most blk movements fall apart. :-/

pan-African, cultural value: your children need to see you work so they know how you value work [working at home => basic human right]

Self-care is essential to health and happiness.

.@TS_NVstudies @MelanieCoMcCoy the “beauty” concept implies the prolonged recognition of “ugly”.. wise Africans were not about long ugly

in the same manner you can't tell Lutheran history without Catholic inhumanity, you can't tell Black history without deep white inhumanity

@zellieimani my freshmen year, my Calc prof told me that no one would want to work with me because I'm Black & to get used to working alone

reminder for college kids who question "black studies": you know what "classics" is? ..white studies. http://www.ox.ac.uk/admissions/undergraduate/courses-listing/classics

patriarchy comes from people fighting over limited natural resources; imperialism comes from patriarchs stealing matriarchal wealth

And I'm starting to realize that when men "feel alive" via dating me, I become more and more a caged shadow of myself. Love isn't a leech.

the stereotypes around what a barbarian looks like and sounds often blind us to high-tech, high-ed brutes

"Why aren't you an Asian sidekick to white supremacy? Why aren't you a quiet Asian?" -undertone to my mentions

a brother from Africa that does not know how to cook? ...never met him.

cooking is either a micro-ritual of communalism or a figment of patriarchal exploitation --some days both...

one traditional way a woman exerted dominance over her man was by reconstructing every cell in his body by cooking for him, not slaving..

very few theoretical approaches to hip-hop exceed the ones at the beginning: the ultra-magnetic MCs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3Qbaf2Q8Ss
