Feminism isn't "Women vs Men"
Feminism is "Us vs The Patriarchy"
And "Us" includes everyone.
yo being black and depressed is hard as fuck. being black with anxiety is hard as fuck. being black with a chronic illness or disability is hard a fuck. everybody expects you to be ‘strong’ at all times and no one sees black people as complex or nuanced enough to be capable of suffering. no one ever thinks we could possibly need help. and if you’re a black woman, the moment you stop thinking about others and try to tend to yourself you’re a selfish lazy ungrateful bitch.
support black people, esp women, who need help. don’t just call us strong or tell us we’ll get through it, help us. protect us. uplift us. allow us to be beings capable of suffering. give us the same space you’d give white women to express our pain and be there for us like you would for anyone else.
so many black people i know - friends, family, etc - talk about breaking generational curses but… when u ask them about their beliefs regarding:
the LGBTQ+ community
fat people
disabled people
womens rights
reproductive rights
wealth inequality
etc…
they have the same old reductive view points their parents had and so on… what generational curses could u possibly be ending if u believe there are only 2 genders? or if u believe that black capitalism will save/protect the black community? what generational curses are u ending if u still think vaccines cause autism? if u still think hitting children is how u discipline them? like… i cant take it seriously.
u dont actually want to break generational curses. just saying it aloud over and over doesnt mean ur doing the necessary work to end generational curses. ur literally going to pass down the same traumatizing shit we was raised to believe in.
