“The language forged by Black people in this country, on this continent … got us from one place to another. We described the auction block. We described what it meant to be there. We survived what it meant to be torn from your mother, your father, your brother, your sister. We described it. We survived being described as mules, as having been put on earth only for the convenience of white people. We survived having nothing belonging to us, not your mother, not your father, not your daughter, not your son. And we created the only language in this country.” — James Baldwin | The Cross of Redemption: Uncollected Writings (via theeducatedfieldnegro)

forgive me if i laugh
you are so sure of love
you are so young
and i too old to learn of love.

the rain exploding
in the air is love
the grass excreting her
green wax is love
and stones remembering
past steps is love,
but you. you are too young
for love
and i too old.

once. what does it matter
when or who, i knew
of love.
i fixed my body
under his and went
to sleep in love
all trace of me
was wiped away

forgive me if i smile
young heiress of a naked dream
you are so young
and i too old to learn of love.

” — Ballad, Sonia Sanchez (via chos)

Beyonce made the song “Single Ladies” and went home to her husband and left you lonely females to dance in a circle thinking you’re happy.

Whoopi Goldberg, stunning

People always say I look like her. I see nothing wrong with that.

it’s always been weird to me

women will support breast cancer, and advocate hard for issues regarding womens rights and such

but won’t even say “hello” to the only other female in their office.

you can’t even support women on a small scale, on a day to day basis

but you’re such an advocate for womens causes. 

k.

Oop!

Severe Wanderlust: And yes, leering is considered sexual harassment -

jadedcattybrownbitch:

“Looking” means you just see someone attractive and who catches your eye. There is nothing wrong with simply looking, given you have full control over your own eyes and brain and don’t stare.

Or leer.

Leering, on the other hand, is treating a woman’s body as if she’s…
