Officially we have a month to celebrate a people's contributions to American history. Although I understand the reason for the designation, I maintain that if we acknowledge the contributions of people of color by rewriting history books to include these contributions and the ones of today then someday MLK's dream of equality and justice will be realized. #blackhistorymonth #wehavecomethisfarbyfaith #blackhistorymakers #history #africanamericanhistory (at Clevedale Historic Inn and Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8EuS-bDRh_/?igshid=lo4q0556jm6j

#Repost @blackvibetribe ・・・ . •I DON’T WANT A SEAT AT THE TABLE THAT SERVES UNSEASONED FOOD• •• I DON’T! 🤷🏾‍♀️ •• And it’s funny because there are power dynamics in something as simple as where you sit at the table. •• But why would I want a seat at a table (to be fake included) with people that don’t look like me, don’t act like me, don’t relate to me, don’t empathize with my struggles, don’t use the same vernacular as me and that don’t genuinely and authentically care about my well being? •• I am learning now, at 16, that those aren’t my people and I love food too much for it not to be seasoned. 🥴 •• I don’t want to be a part of ANYTHING or be involved with ANYONE that no longer serves me. It’s detrimental to my health and my health is priority! 💯 •• I have the power to make decisions and effect change! I can plot my course for success! Opportunities will present themselves to me where I will be heard and make a difference! •• I will not simply take a seat... I am building my OWN table! 🙌🏾🖤 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
