blahblahblah

You guys hear about this young couple in Cincinnati that both committed suicide literally just a few days ago? I came across it on Facebook and I find it so sad how ignored black mental illness is. These kids were depressed and neither of their families took it serious, all they had was each other and when Mercedes, 19y, killed herself (April 20th), Markeice, 20y, followed 2 days later(April 22). Markeice even went as far as posting a Facebook live video minutes before he died saying his goodbyes to everyone and wrote a long suicide note on his page but they didn’t get to him in time. From what I’ve been reading in the condolences is, Mercedes was pregnant with Markeice’s child and really needed her family support, they gave her the opposite. When she died, her family blamed Markeice and denied him access to her funeral. He was devastated that he just lost his partner and child on top of being blamed by her family and treated as such. He ended his own life 2 days before her funeral service. May this young couple and their child rest in peace and may we all remember to pay attention and listen when one of our fellow brothers and sisters come to us with any mental situation and take it as seriously as possible. This could’ve all been prevented if they were taken serious and actually listened to. R.I.P Mercedes Shaday and Markeice Brown 🙏🏾👼🏾

We really need to talk about colorism because it’s so ridiculous, and it is VERY real. In the retail industries, in the dynamics of beauty standards online, and in real life.

Its mindboggling. I dont see how people can deny the shit.

Honestly, I feel this though because it’s a lightskinned girl on here that reminds me of a human Flubber mixed with Pootie and the Blowfish and Black Tumblr just gasses her and I be so confused 😐 But she’s light bright so that’s automatic beauty 💁🏾

NIGGAS WILL REALLY GET CAUGHT IN A LIE AND RIDE IT OUT UNTIL THE END… IM DOOONNNNEEEE LMFAO
