10 Demands for White People; From a BLM Organizer

1. White people, if you don’t have any descendants, will your property to a black or brown family. Preferably one that lives in generational poverty.

2. White people, if you’re inheriting property you intend to sell upon acceptance, give it to a black or brown family. You’re bound to make that money in some other white privileged way.

3. If you are a developer or realty owner of multi-family housing, build a sustainable complex in a black or brown blighted neighborhood and let black and brown people live in it for free.

4. White people, if you can afford to downsize, give up the home you own to a black or brown family. Preferably a family from generational poverty.

5. White people, if any of the people you intend to leave your property to are racists ********, change the will, and will your property to a black or brown family. Preferably a family from generational poverty.

6. White people, re-budget your monthly so you can donate to black funds for land purchasing.

7. White people, especially white women (because this is yaw specialty — Nosey Jenny and Meddling Kathy), get a racist fired. Yaw know what the **** they be saying. You are complicit when you ignore them. Get your boss fired cause they racist too.

8. Backing up No. 7, this should be easy but all those sheetless Klan, Nazi’s and Other lil’ ****-white men will all be returning to work. Get they *** fired. Call the police even: they look suspicious.

9. OK, backing up No. 8, if any white person at your work, or as you enter in spaces and you overhear a white person praising the actions from yesterday, first, get a pic. Get their name and more info. Hell, find out where they work — Get Them Fired. But certainly address them, and, if you need to, you got hands: use them.

10. Commit to two things: Fighting white supremacy where and how you can (this doesn’t mean taking up knitting, unless you’re making scarves for black and brown kids in need), and funding black and brown people and their work.

NO

Meh...black women have alot of insecurities within themselves growing up in this country unfortunately....
What they need to do is quit using black men as a scapegoat for these insecurities.
You gotta love yourself first.

Only? No. While I enjoy seeing fat nose and lips on other women, I damn sure celebrate thrm on our own women as well

They are only doing what they have been conditioned to do man. Part of the whole operation. I can't fault anyone for social conditioning.

Indeed the dysfunction and social conditioning runs deep but...
That still doesn't mean a black man in today's society has to accept or tolerate being the blame for these issues.
We as humans are free to do what we want... We aren't obligated to uplift black women just because we share the same skin color.
People can like what they wanna like or find attractive.
These generalizations because of "some black women's" insecurities are getting quite old.

Prideful secure black women don't ask for or need this validation because they know where they stand as far as beauty and they are backed by solid stand up prideful black men who make them feel so!

One thing I noticed about alot of these women with these insecure generalizations have in common....

None of them have solid strong black men beside them...

 

[Mark Antony]

We are obligated to uplift ALL our people.
