Assata Shakur from Honey Magazine debut issue, 1998. Full article forthcoming.

“In some ways it was easier for my generation. Racism was blatant and obvious. The “Whites Only” signs let us know clearly, what we were up against. Not much has changed, but the system of lies and tricknology is much more sophisticated. Today young people have to be highly informed and acutely analytical, or they will be swept up into a whirlpool of lies and deception.”
-Assata Shakur

That’s why the government wants her dead. They want us to stay in the dark. They don’t want us to know the truth…and this is the truth.

I really really hate church puns

Like the pastor will be in getting ready to go into the sermon or even be in the sermon and say the corniest shit. And I’m in the choir so I’m either in the very front pew or in the choir stand looking like. image

And everyone else around me is all

And I’m trying to figure out how I’m going to make it through another hour of this sermon. 

Lol I’m sorry. Reblogging for the second gif. 

"And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

i feel like you should probably clarify what you mean and the shit would stop because like, I wear men's shorts and I get my booty ogled. seriously, they're not inappropriate they go down passed my knees. It doesn't bother me, and if my calves are a distraction then yo, to each there own but i'm not going to wear dress pants when it's 85 that's unreasonable. so to be clear, you mean short ass shorts. like, 'damn girl your cheeks are hanging out you should pull those down'?
Me:

Mmm. Actually I think it’s all over now(I’m not getting anymore asks). I’m sure the picture is still being reblogged and people are adding their own context to what I said but I’ve actually expanded on the subject in several responses…if you’re really that interested you can scroll through my blog and read. 

No one had a convincing argument as to why a girl should be allowed to go to school/work scantily clad. Men can’t sag or go shirtless. But I do realize I’m arguing with mostly teens who think they know everything already….

I’m 28 and I don’t know anything(in the grand scheme of things)…but there are a few things I do know. My statement is what I KNOW to be true. And it’s true for the reasons I mentioned. 

rigelandsirius:

closet-racists like to claim that they’d be totally fine and dandy with traditionally white characters being portrayed by actors of color whilst they’re casually dismissing the prevalence of white-washing in hollywood. hate to break it to you, but that is NOT the typical response that actors of color receive, and if you can’t acknowledge that, then you’re only adding to the problem.
remember that time hunger games fans flipped their shit because rue, who IS actually black in the books, was rightfully cast as black in the film? apparently their rose-colored white-is-default glasses made their eyes gloss over that tidbit of info. (let’s not even get wholeheartedly into the fact that katniss was described as having olive skin and jet black hair but her casting call specifically asked for only white actresses…because non-whites could never be expected to have dark hair and tan skin amirite?!)
remember that time people actually boycotted thor because idris elba was in it? http://www.comicsalliance.com/2010/12/16/racists-thor-idris-ebla-racism/
remember that time donald glover got hoards of letters calling him the n-word because there were rumors about him possibly being the new spiderman?  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lgko-xReFSs
or that time the film adaptation of avatar: the last airbender (a show with OBVIOUS asian inspiration) was almost an entirely caucasian cast except for the “bad guy”, who, in the cartoon is actually light-skinned?                                      http://io9.com/5111680/avatar-casting-makes-fans-see-white
or remember that time all those fans said it was wrong to have angel coulby play the role of gwen in merlin because it wasn’t era-appropriate. because, ya know, being era-appropriate in a made-up story about magic is srs bsns.
so that’s why i don’t give a shit if you think i’m “overreacting” about jj abrams having a white actor play khan noonien singh. i’m not that surprised by it, since actors of color are routinely dismissed, but i still reserve the right to be pissed.
