Fly Chi Vegan Mom

anyways the reason why normani is so gassed is not only b/c she’s immensely talented and full of potential but the desperation of how many black girls (DARKSKINNED) black girls see themselves in her and want her to win can change and shift our entire perception of darker skinned black girls in the music industry. we’ve had to watch kelela, jazmine sullivan, literally any other darker skinned female artist get pushed aside to make room for their lighter counterparts but normani is the one that can actually open the doors for darkskinned girls to make a PERMANENT comeback 

dense motherfucker, the pronoun “they” is an english equivalent for the third person indefinite singular and has been for literally centuries. it remains morphologically and syntactically plural therefore you don’t need to shit your little pantaloons at compromising your surely rock solid grammar rules.

146 years ago today Susan B. Anthony was arrested for attempting to vote. She died before she was able to cast her ballot legally.

146 years ago susan b anthony wouldn’t let ida b wells and other black sufagettes march with her unless she went at the back because she valued racist southern women’s opinions over genuinely amazing suffragettes who risked their lives when they could be arrested WITH NO CAUSE. back then a black woman could be arrested for sex work by talking to a man who was not related to her, black suffragettes who looked at a man the wrong way would be arrested.

Unlike Susan B Anthony, Ida B Wells did not die before female suffrage was passed. But she did die 35 years before she could vote as a black person. She had to watch for the last ten years of her life as white women got what she had fought so hard for while she was still denied it.

What's the distinction between really wanting a boyfriend and being desperate?
