Black faces in high places will not save us. Instead of dismantling the master’s house, they are grasping at the keys to the front door.

Still think about how each year before prom, my school staged an elaborate drunk driving crash—wrecked car, sirens, parents sobbing over “dead” children. All that production, instead of teaching responsible use. Just fear, shame, and silence. Not one lesson on harm reduction.

One of the things I hate most about gentrification is how y’all strip these houses of all their character just to throw in new appliances, paint it white and call it luxury. #gentrification #Indy

Y’all worried about the Epstein list but just celebrated an entire nation founded by human traffickers.

Proximity to Blackness is not a defense against racism. Enslavers had Black “lovers.” Black children. Black grandchildren. And they still trafficked Black bodies. Still brutalized us. Still claimed ownership of our lives. Familiarity isn’t freedom. Love isn’t liberation.

Whites want to bring back slavery. They’ve been angry every since they lost their right to own people. That’s the greatness they want back. It’s that simple.

I can’t cope with this whole having to parent your parents thing. Cause what you mean after spending my whole childhood telling me not to talk to strangers you gave someone on the phone your social and a copy of your ID.

I don’t center the redemption arcs of racists. Not the ones in hoods — or the ones in HR. If your activism spends more energy “healing” the people who cause harm than protecting the people harmed, that’s not justice — it’s white supremacy with a softer face.

Not the Grammys inventing a whole new category just to keep Black artists from dominating. This is what white supremacy does — moves the goalposts the moment we start winning.

Looting is a legitimate form of protest.

Black folks know we are supposed to look out. Wouldn’t even have been a movie if she would’ve just cashed the check.

If leaders like Huey, Malcolm, and Martin had lived, this wouldn’t be.

Black folks can never afford to sit out any battle for human rights. We are always the target—what they do to others will be visited upon us by orders of magnitude. Silence has never saved us. Solidarity is survival. When the rain falls, it doesn’t just fall on one man’s house.
