𝑓𝑟𝑜𝑚 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑅𝑒𝑑 𝑉𝑒𝑙𝑣𝑒𝑡 𝑠𝑒𝑟𝑖𝑒𝑠 Disclaimer The following story is loosely based on true events. When I say loosely, I mean like a sew-in two months past due—hanging on by a few baby hairs and a prayer. Or like a group chat after the drama: still technically together, but mostly out of habit. Names have been changed.But some of this shit may have actually happened.

The phrase, “𝙄 𝙙𝙤𝙣’𝙩 𝙠𝙣𝙤𝙬, 𝙗𝙪𝙩 𝙡𝙚𝙩’𝙨 𝙛𝙞𝙜𝙪𝙧𝙚 𝙞𝙩 𝙤𝙪𝙩,” is criminally underrated.
It’s a flashlight in the dark. The compass you never needed—until the GPS failed.
And somehow, it’s one of the most underused phrases we have.

Sometimes honesty can be both your imperfection 𝙖𝙣𝙙 your credibility. The message don’t mean nothing if it ain’t passed through the mess.
Your rage, your grief, your petty, your pained honesty—
All of it becomes holy credibility when you stop trying to make it pretty and just make it true. #bvm

In 2008, America elected its first Black president. By 2013, SCOTUS said, “We don’t need the Voting Rights Act anymore.” (Shelby County v. Holder)
And now in 2025, Tyre Nichols’ killers just got acquitted on state charges by a predominantly white jury.
Let’s connect the dots.
