etherealxeyes:

ive been peeping at job openings online and even just seeing the email updates i get from my school on internships and a lot of them are for things like engineering, it, and accounting

i havent seen many jobs for communities. development, social services, etc.

we out here talking shit about how bad education is and how bad our communities are but theres no big pull to bring people in to fix it

emotional

abuse

still

abuse

do not fucking tell me someone with abusive parents “had it easy” just because the abuse wasn’t physical or sexual

just don’t

PREACH

It sure as hell hurts the same

Locs are lovely, but I need to understand how you survive in the summer.

Look at this beauty right here!

Street harassment is not a compliment.

youngblackandvegan:

Every part of me and my body is politicized
My skin
My hair
My uterus
My culture
Loving myself and valuing my humanity, in a society that sees me as nothing more than a commodity, is an act of political resistance

And loving those like me is an act of political solidarity.

College should not be only path we feel is necessary to escape poverty. Not everyone is going to go to college and not everyone wants to go to college. There should multiple options. The average person doesn’t want to be rich, just comfortable. There should be more options for this
