Last week, I was feeling very Black Panther-ish. I kept seeing shit. Hearing shit. These so-called patriotic trolls are constantly focused on the wrong damnthing When a Gorilla got killed. Oh, people was outraged. Dog abuse? Oh, they were on it. #45 says dumb shit, it’s justified. Wypipo waving around tiki torches from Party City and running over equality protesters… They have that ‘right’. So, Kaepernick is 'unpatriotic’ because he takes a knee during the national anthem Did y'all forget what this country is built upon The backs of Blacks and Natives The blood of slaves Genocide Rape We were still slaves when that anthem was created. GTFOH. As an American, you gonna make me stand for a song that wasn’t even meant for me? What happened to the land of the free? I guess we’re only free and able to express freedom of speech when they say so… But one thing I love about 2017, is that WE are more vocal than ever. Nah, I’m not my grandfather or my grandmother. I’m not my mama. This is a new generation where we’re gonna call bullshit. I’m not explaining anything to supremacists, low-key or high-key racists. And nor should you. You’re wasting your breath. They’ll never get it which is fine, but keep that hatred and them tiki torches over there www.beautyandthemuse.net Model: @Lvernon2000 Photo: @remy_me MUA: @being_madinah Location: Belle Isle (Detroit) -- source link
