I don't know what happened to Carlee Russell, but I am happy she made it to her folks safe. It can and should be this simple.

The authorities are investigating, yes? Ok then. Besides them, neither Carlee Russell nor her family or anyone else any explanation for what happened or where she was.

What we NOT gone do is act like her case is some kind of impediment to other missing black women having their cases highlighted as much as other women. It is not. Full fucking stop.

Whatever we do or don't find out about Carlee, if I come up missing, y'all better come and find me. Don't worry about why I was alone, if I knew my last seen acquaintance, my mental state, whether I'm a sex worker, or none of that. If my body is missing, y'all fight for my life. Period.

If Carlee Russell & her family's explanation somehow doesn't meet the public's standard for what's "right" when it comes to a missing person case, what should that have to do with the next brown woman who comes up missing? Nothing! Y'all acting like all the missing white women's explanations add up.

Lemme ask you this: if some white girl goes missing, and folks turn over every stone, and it turns out she was actually safe the whole time, DO YOU THINK THAT WOULD STOP THE PUBLIC AND MEDIA FROM TURNING EVERY STONE BACK THE FUCK OVER TO TRY AND FIND THE NEXT MISSING WHITE GIRL?!?!?

Just like one white girl's missing person situation doesn't set a precedent for every missing white girl that follows, that's exactly the same energy we gonna keep the next time a black girl goes missing. We have platforms, and we will use them to look for and find the next missing black girl.

Y'all can take all this Carlee Russell-gone-mess-it-up-for-everybody respectability politics BS and choke it down with your inferiority complexes. The whole point now is to stop waiting for black women to be valued by white folks and just amplify our missing girls' cases with or without them.
