MANSPLAINING

Mansplaining example:

Most of the items I repost come from women (mainly Black women). And if you've ever received my generic, 'Thanks, so and so. Reposting.' or seen 'From so and so's post.' in my comment area, that's who I mean. 

But when I do it, I get 'likes' and 'shares' and accolades saying, 'Ooh, how perceptive! I NEVER saw it that way before!'

While many originators get silence, the b word, the c word and EVEN the N word along with threats to their person and their practice or business!  

And many of them are professors, doctors, successful entrepreneurs and the like! But let them speak up and it's, 'Who are you?!?' and 'I question your credentials!'

While I have zero credentials and have never received any bile beyond, 'You're overreacting'  or 'What you said was hateful!' 

Oh, you wounded me! (Actually, they did wound me because I am human and they did hurt my feelings. #Blackfeelingsmatter).

So imagine how up in my feelings I would be if they treated me like a Black woman? In a dozen years on FB, I've never  unfriended and post that I don't unfriend 

and yet EVERY ONE of you has complied to the no cursing request on my page. EVERY.SINGLE.ONE.OF.YOU.WITHOUT. EXCEPTION.HAS.GIVEN.ME.THAT.RESPECT!

But we're still in denial about misogynoir conditioning being a thing, though. And I could go on and on about how the most dangerous place for a woman is in the home, etc. but you get the point. 

Misogynoir conditioning and Mansplaining is killing US!

ON REPARATIONS

Never banter with white folk about reparations. It’s like arguing with your boss about wages they haven’t paid you. The only acceptable answer, whether they can give it or not, is “Yeah… You right!” Anything less from them is pure toxicity.

Rigged Legal System

Search words: Rigged Legal System, Gauntlet of oppression, racial profiling throughout  Years ago on jury duty, I was asked to render a ‘fair and impartial’ judgement regarding a young Black man accused of possession on the Upper East Side. There were only two Black people on the jury, myself and another dude. After a very long time, we ended up finding the defendant guilty. That’s the end of the story but not the narrative. The twelve main things I came to realize: 1. Several Black potential jurors were citing a mantra about their unwillingness to participate in a prejudiced judicial system. It was my first time hearing it but should I be called again, I’ll google it and voice my objection in the same way. 2. The suspect was stopped for a broken taillight, but as his wife said when she examined their car at the station, the light was never broken. 3. The white judge, however, ruled that the bust was still legit even though he was clearly stopped for drivin...

WHOEVER CONTROLS THE MEDIA CONTROLS THE NARRATIVE

WHOEVER CONTROLS THE MEDIA CONTROLS THE NARRATIVE White cops NEVER leak to the press that they’re now investigating specific members (by name) of the Aryan Brotherhood. When it’s them, the investigation is ALWAYS ongoing. But when it’s us, they ‘leak’ that Sandra was ‘suicidal’, Cyntoia and Mike Brown and Marissa Alexander were ‘no Angels’, Korryn was ‘unstable’, King was a philanderer, Trayvon engaged in ground n pound because he watched ultimate fighting on tv (or how the media runs with his dad saying that the blood-curdling scream heard on the 911 call of a neighbor was NOT his son. The last time we heard our son give a piercing scream was when he was slightly colicky at 3months old!). Or it was leaked that grandma Eleanor Bumpers came at the armed and armored cops with a kitchen knife so they had to shoot during the no-knock raid on the wrong home. Or the leak that Sean Bell shot at cops first on eve before his wedding day. Or the leak that Tawana Brawley did...
