Good evening peeps,

your regular reminder that there is no "positive" depictions of racism, only prejudiced imagery that makes racist people feel comfortable.

You've seen the right lose their pea-brain mind about the demise of Aunt Jemima. You might not have noticed
how Black women and more specifically dark-skinned Black women and girls are hailed by White "Liberals/progressists" as the protests' "warriors".

Ask yourself why that is.

Black girls are not grown women, they are kids. Black women aren't strong, angry and powerful, they are
feminine.

Dont let them dehumanise Black women for a "good" cause. Dont let them get away with riding on Black women's back and sweat. They are nobody's mules.

Care for and protect Black women mean these days.

(I forgot to give you guys a way out). If that's something you know you've been doing, you can deconstruct these racist tropes from your psyché.

Corrective promotion is a thing, where you just have to sit down and invite non-racist representations of Black women in your life
via social media.

The easiest way to learn how to view Black women as feminine desirable individuals capable of pain and suffering, and in need of protection is to watch regular Black women live their lives.

Thank God for social media.
