Black women are often the quiet strength, misunderstood and unheard, carrying burdens with grace. Her comments are exactly why we so often choose silence over speaking, protecting our voices from ignorance. Do better 😕
i wish my parents had never put me in predominately yt schools growing up. as a black girl it has don irreparable damage to self esteem, especially when it comes to dating. it feels like no one wants me and its compounded by the fact that im plus size too
exactly! this is why it’s hard to feel welcomed in women’s spaces. they just don’t listen to us. we’re all for social justice until it requires sitting down, shutting up, and actually listening to marginalized people
