Gymnastics has come a long compared to that old footage, but this difference is particularly significant for black girls! Because they have never taken seriously our abilities! Just because the color of our skin is not what they want to see!

Simone Biles’s fantastic performance has been covered by many news outlets all these years! Now we can see the real difference!

amazingly, some people don’t consider you the main character in their “book”.  it doesn’t mean they don’t care. it doesn’t mean they don’t love you. it doesn’t mean anything except that SOMETIMES you have to take care of yourself. because no one will be able to be there for you ALL the time. it’s just not going to happen. 

the only thing that thinking who isn’t doting on your day and night will do is make you feel so isolated, uncared for, unloved. it will do nothing positive.

i used to feel this way, all black and white. but nothing is. 

like truly think - could you drop EVERYTHING at ANY given second? no. you can’t. and it’s really selfish to think anyone else should be able to for you.
