Dr. King suffered many bouts of severe depression. His autopsy found that he had a heart consistent with a 60 year old. He was murdered at 39. Stress, threats and exhaustion will do that to a person.

Of course I am thinking of all those struggling for Black lives, but also those struggling for trans people, especially Black and brown trans folks, as well as all the immigrants documented and otherwise
Fuck borders, fuck gender enforcement, abolish ICE, abolish carceral values and systems

MLK was only 39 when he was killed. Growing up, I thought that was old. But I’m 43 now and I’m stunned by the burden he shouldered at such a young age. I’m also a lot more aware of how hard it is, at any age, to carry the hopes and dreams of an oppressed people on your shoulders, as so many do.

They're (the Democrats) not going to save you. They worship the god of money. We have to save ourselves.
Democrats should be out there saying that they will prosecute everyone involved. State and local governments need to be clamoring for ICE agents’ arrest.
ICE ended up returning the man, Saly, after realizing he’s a fucking US citizen with no criminal record, per his sister-in-law. These fucking animals.

All skin folk, ain't kin folk. The psychological havoc whiteness has done to all of us...
When you think about how wild J. Edgar Hoover’s obsession with black ppl was. He had created Cointel Pro just to have the FBI discredit, disrupt, and dismantle the Black Civil Rights movement. He knew that if it galvanized properly it was over for mediocre yt men in this country.

Alotta times love looks like a punch and a shove.

When I hear you say something wild about black folks, I think of my kids, my wife, my mama.
It makes me angry, I want to protect them, that's not hate driving that, love drives that.
When you say something crazy bout women or gay folk, I want to harm you cuz I love my folk just that much.

That's not hate tho.
Removing a threat to your loved ones is love.
Being willing to fight for the safety of your loved ones is love.
That's exactly what you said, love protecting others.

Hate never wins in the long run. Hate burns itself out. It isolates. It self destructs. But love? Love builds. Love protects. Love lasts.

Do y'all ever think of how weird it is to want to see people show love and compassion to the people who literally want them dead?
And I don't see defending yourselves against those people as hate. But I find it intriguing that y'all do.

I remember this! The so-called justice system is inherently misogynist and upheld by sexual deviants. They don’t care about sex crimes.

Thankfully, one of the girls (12) suspected something so she called her mom to come get her. Shout out to the mom for going to get her kid. And not reassuring her that everything was OK. When the girl told her mom what she thought was happening Mama turned around and got the rest of the girls. 🫰🏾 🫰🏾

So really, 6-8 months.
This man waited until his underage daughter was having a sleepover with her friends to make all the friends smoothies and drug the friends in an attempt to molest some young girls. The jury gave him 24 months.

This. The fuck I look like aiding the police/surveillance state
And this why my answer has ALWAYS been the same when ppl ask me why I don’t get a ring camera: I’m not signing up to be part of the police state voluntarily.
It was inevitable.
