#WokeWhiteWomen : #JaneFonda

By the time you read this, Miss Fonda might be in jail for the umpteenth time trying to protect your rights as a person of color, for climate change, for war veterans, basically for ALL of us.

In a world full of #Beckys ?

Be a muthaf*ckin' Jane!

"Dear non-Negreauxz:

It’s not called ‘black music’. It’s called ‘rhythm and blues’ or 'R&B'. And if Amy Winehouse could sing it, there’s hope for you too!”

Dear non-Negreauxz:

"I don't care if you get mad because I bring up racism in my country or yours.

I WANT you to get mad.

Get SO mad that you go out into YOUR neighborhood, ask someone of color how they truly get treated in your neck of the woods & start a dialogue!

Be a conduit for change!"

Police brutality, white privilege, and a system designed to keep people of color down took this woman's future from her.
Sandra Bland would have been 37 today.

Never forget.

“Black people ARE pop culture.

We’re the ones that create all of the trends and everyone follows behind us all the time.

SO!”

Dear non-Negreauxz:

"In America, slavery ended in 1865 when Congress passed the 13th amendment on January 31st, 1865.

However, Black Americans were not free of segregation and Jim Crow laws until 1965.

What has your country done in 60 years for Black people?"

dare to take that stance

so I call your bluff
I'll wear you down
until you've had enough

I'm the start-to-finish
you're the stop and yield
take an extended time out
and let grown folks on the field

beauty dissipates
energy never ceases
better hope your game is tight
before they see the creases

every debutante has a ball
then it's all downhill from there
every beauty queen has their crown
then it's buyer beware

that adjective?
so unimaginative
that you try to use
to mock me

it's baseless
and below me
you don't even know me
what I possess is confidence
with the right mix of cocky
