When you think about it, PLUR is inherently genocidal.

It’s got me thinking about the desire to divest musicians from those that manufacture weapons from genocidal entities. How does this make any sense?

I really can’t imagine making my living off of another cultures survival traditions. Maybe this is the privilege of being Black… alas, how does one’s soul survive this?

It is plainly evident that r&b, once a survival utility and tradition of African Americans has been completely divested and commodified. The same goes for house music.

I hate it here and nobody has the critical thinking skills or the fucking heart to risk their convenience or pocketbook or reputation to change it. Disgust does not BEGIN to express how I feel.

I struggle, truly to find a popular cultural act that is not in some way appropriating Black people’s swag.

Yall watch people act like complete vampires, sucking all of the creativity, sweetness, and gifts out of real ones and as long as they have clout yall don’t say SHIT.

Black women are losing their jobs at alarming rates. (And no, it’s not because they’re over reporting unemployment). It’s because we are the cultural mules of the world and people do not give two shits about us except for propping up their little tokens who don’t stir shit up-maintaining status quo

We’re all drugged (self/or prescribed, no judgement) just to make it through the day. And frankly it still isn’t enough to make any of this shit feel okay.

We have all these apps to create connection, meanwhile, this plethora of persons creates the most fickle sort of connecting. We trade ourselves and others like commodities.

Rapists and Serial Killers (a.k.a. Weapons investors) hold so so so much power. This is not even capitalism it’s straight murderocracy.
