BUSTY BEATZ SPEAKZ

In the instances when POC say shit like ‘Oh I can’t stand white folk’ or ‘Damn white people’, they aren’t saying ‘Oh I think they are inferior, I want to humiliate them, abuse them, enslave them and wipe out their people!’, they’re saying ‘Damn, after a couple hundred years of white people thinking I’m inferior, humiliating me, abusing me, enslaving me, and trying to wipe out my people, I don’t wanna deal with them.’ The context is completely different.

Privilege is expecting that marginalized people have nothing better to do than educate you on your privilege. Please read a book.

“So I’m not allowed to have a genuine interest in another culture?!!?!??!”
First of all, privileged dickweeds wearing Urban Outfitters “Navajo” panties, I didn’t realize that you excavated those in your anthropological field work. My bad. Carry on. And second of all, again, you “can” do whatever the fuck you want. You “can” wear whatever you want, say whatever you want, and think whatever you want about whatever you want. All the time! Yaaay! But if a group of people comes to you and says, “This thing that you are doing is hurting us,” and you keep doing it for fun, then you are a dickweed! Like, you know we had an actual genocide here, right? A deliberate extermination of human beings? Right where your house is? So maybe just err on the side of sensitivity.

finding beauty: It feels like zero critiques of hip hop ever point out rapper's depression »

vagabondaesthetics:

I mean I never hear people every talk about the 15000 rappers going through depression and usually dedicating several tracks off of their debut albums to talk about their addiction to drugs or pills or their suicidal tendency. The only exceptions are Eminem and Biggie’s one song Suicidal Thoughts….

Nobody in history has ever gotten their freedom by appealing to the moral sense of the people who were oppressing them.

This is just gold…and true for my sitch too; love these words.

Peeps so defensive for being caught out there - wanna make it bout ‘you don’t talk for me’, ‘stop telling me how to act’ and the icing on the cake ‘how dare you talk on behalf of my people’. Never did. Showed yourself for loving up the structure…now trying every tactic to prove to ya people ya not that. Go hard.

Ah well, ya get my forgiveness. And support. Always.

Cause your voice is just as oppressed in this world.

There, as a matter of fact, cannot be any type of revolution unless the woman has been involved.

White people swear up and down they know the struggle

crankycritic:

So…

I am seriously going to buy a t-shirt

And put

“White people swear up and down they know the struggle” on it

Not even joking

And I will wear it in my predominantly white school

And I will collect the tears to quench the thirst of our people
