On this Wednesday like pretty much any of them on this 3rd rock from the sun in the continental 48, the debate goes on – are Black women valued and protected. No we are not.
At this point we need to have a conversation with one another and lean into that. By lean into that I mean act accordingly.
I know exactly why this is hitting so raw and I won’t apologize for that. I have the right to my feelings, fuck those who disagree.
“And the thing is, the older you get, the more you’re going to need a man’s protection and provision.”
I would not ‘need’ it if men weren’t who they are. In reality I don’t need it, I am just weary of the complaints from men that bring us to this portion of the program. Women, and Black women specifically are told we cannot have it both ways, yet what is this?
Oh Black women you aren’t doing all of the things that allow us to be ‘men’ but when it’s your time to act like a man you want to qualify when and how you do that.
Ja’Michael Phelps ‘n dem weren’t asking for who for what when they saw a man get jumped on the dock of the bay, nope. They arrived and handled it. It was clear that Unc in the white shirt was talking shit from the video, it was a good 4 minutes of talking shit and ‘dem boys didn’t stop and ask him why he started it by running his mouth they skipped to the fade as soon as the boat was close enough.
What did happen was the first handcuffs rolled out when a ‘defenseless’ yt woman was hit with a chair. Mind you, she wasn’t ‘defenseless’ when she was trying to scratch out the eyes of that Divine 9 brother and the Black women had to gather her. It was too much when she got hit.
Yet in a moment like this every knuckle dragging ‘king’ wants to defend the one with the brick and the one who watched. Black men love yt jesus so much, why are you watching someone throw the first stone brick?
I just needed to vent it out here a little, because I have to go gather up a yt woman who walked into my mentions on that Tok. Saying nothing is free, yet she strolled on in – inserting herself because they on the whole aren’t capable of minding their own business.
