#Repost @feminists.food with @repostapp ・・・ "I used to wonder why I was born black when I was little. I wanted straight hair and blue eyes and pale skin. I thought I was ugly. I hated who I was. I had read so many books with white characters that if I did see one with black characters, I'd avoid it because I didn't accept it anymore. I've come a long from where I was when I was little but the damage is still there. Representation is so important for little POC children. So when people get angry about things like Black Hermione and Finn in the Star Wars movie, I get so upset. Whites people get to be EVERYWHERE. POC are starving for representation. Check your privilege. ~Glo" #blackvisibility #womanistally
