a lot of these cultural appropriation discussions get very lazy and don't actually address the issue
accusing non-black people who grew up around black people speaking AAVE of cultural appropriation seems kinda...lazy idk. like if you understand linguistics at all you know that people adopt the language that is around them (this is NOT about the n word no one but black people should ever say that)
i've started to notice that people who consistently invoke "the hood" in many lazy cultural appropriation debates have never actually grown up in "the hood"
uhhh i jus wanna say that ""Dr."" Umar Johnson is no fucking panafricanist and no black person should look to this man as some kind of "role model" or activist of any kind
does anyone know of any really good anarcha-feminism lit
ha ha ha ha vanity will be the death of me
tfw you realize that you will continue to spend a shitload of money in efforts to preserve your looks because you have grown to place an exorbitant amount of importance on vanity because appearances, particularly those of women, are often used as social currency in order to navigate society, be successful, and in many cases simply survive
