This is important. Listen to me.

I’ve hated this part of myself for so long. 

I still do. 

But not right now. Not this very instant. 

This is not pornography. This is educational.

I am so much flesh, I am so much fat.

I am so much more than anyone can handle. 

I am a handful. I am handfuls. 

I will love you, flesh. 

One day, I will love you unconditionally. 

i love you

An angel told me this post was inevitable (of a fat woman being completely transparent about her midsection) and it was such good news I almost doubted it. Thank God this woman had the nerve to post this art onto Tumblr. You’re beautiful, queen and, you deserve the upmost respect.

Omg thank you. Thank you so much!!! <3

realizing your own potential is so important. everyone in the world can tell you that you’re great but unless you actually believe it and live it it doesn’t even matter and vice versa.

Marsha P Johnson. Trans woman. Drag queen.
Activist. The first person to throw a brick at Stonewall. Hero. Don’t whitewash. Never forget.

Do not forget Marsha.

Don’t forget that the movement for LGBT+ rights started with trans women of color.

Apparently the new Stonewall film has whitewashed the entire thing. Don’t forget her name.

I don’t even want the job anymore. I forgot to mention I would be the token black girl again. Fuck no.

See this☝ is a prime example of one of the reasons why we take our black hair and hairstyles so seriously. We can literally be passed up for jobs or even fired just because of our hair for no other reason that because its different from everyone else’s. Nothing was even wrong or unkempt about her hair smh.

REBLOG THE FUCK OUTTA THIS

Sending you positive vibes for your job search love 💓

Where’s “ People should wear their hair however they want white tumblr now?” Piper? Larry? Where are you? 

I just love the idea of calling white people Piper & Larry, and I’m doing it from now on.

A few of my favorite things

  • White people trying to explain black history to me
  • White people trying to explain intersectional feminism to me
  • White people trying to explain womynism to me
  • White people trying to explain intuitional racism to me

 !!!!! LISTEN UP !!!!!!

Mike Browns Friend Shot By Police On One Year Anniversary Of Death. 

The person shot in Ferguson by a police officer after a day of commemorating the first anniversary of Michael Brown’s death has been identified by his father as 18-year-old Tyrone Harris Jr., of St. Louis, who was “real close” to Brown, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

After shooting him they handcuffed him and stood over his body, continuing to aim their guns while a witness recording the incident screamed and begged for them to get him medical attention. The man recording was then arrested for “disobeying police” and staying in the area. Thankfully the ambulance was called and he was rushed to the hospital, put into surgery, and is currently in unstable and critical condition.

The story is that apparently Harris had been tracked throughout the protest in an unmarked vehicle and in plainclothes (meaning not wearing their uniform but simply dressed as normal citizens) as police believed he was “armed.” Officers allege the suspect approached the detectives who were sitting in a van and opened fire with a 9mm gun that had been stolen last year.

They also believed him to be the suspect of the first shooting that occurred earlier that night. The incident reportedly involved two groups of people on the west side of West Florissant Avenue. It happened just before police shot Harris Jr. 

Belmar added that 40 and 50 shots were fired in an exchange between the two groups, and the incident he described as “remarkable” lasted around 45 seconds. “They were criminals. They weren’t protesters,” Belmar said of those involved in the shootings. He did not say if there were any casualties from the shooting on West Florissant Avenue. Protesters and members of the media who had gathered in the street took cover or fled when the firing started, The Associated Press reported.

The media and Police are both calling harris the “shooting suspect” but have no evidence to back it up. It’s all simply speculation at this point. Witnesses, including his girlfriend, are saying Harris never shot at police, he was just one of the bystanders trying to flee when the shots first rang out.

Pictures and Videos from that night also show that the original shooter was wearing completely different clothes than Harris and in the video, you can see the unmarked police car drive right past the shooter

The cops involved in shooting are on paid leave while there’s an investigation.
