First off let me say those lives lost in Paris - my condolence to their family. No one wants to lose a anyone in that manner.
Now on to what this post is about .. I'm not changing my damn Facebook profile picture to show support to Paris.
This does not make me a rude person, or mean .. although many have called me that .. I'm not .. at times. Here is the thing,where was/is/can I see the rough draft/sometimes rain drops will fall of our "show support for blacks getting gunned down" profile changer thingy. Don't worry .. I'll wait ......
This skin that I'm in, this color that I wear EVERY DAY ... is at war EVERY DAY. People come together to support everything else .. but black people. Hell even black people turn their nose up when others were changing their profile to green, red and black. I'm not going to keep showing my support to a system or mutha fuckas that don't care about us, as a whole! I get so pissed at black people who RUN to show support to everything but blackness. Listen, black teens and young black adults were afraid for their lives this week with threats of being gunned down for going to school. SEVERAL SCHOOLS. Earlier this week a little black boy's letter to his school about the racial things being said to him, like he should be hanging from a tree , on a school bus,by his white peers was put out. Information on another black man being murdered by the police was given to the media. There were several different things going on within our own community ( no you don't have to live in that area but we are a unit, there for I call us a community ) that I have seen very few talk about.
Stop following the "thing to do". Do you know anyone in Paris? Do you speak french? Have you every been to Paris? Do you know what is going on over there, outside of these attacks? Why are they saying if you continue to bomb us we will continue to kill you? If you answered no, then why did you change your profile picture? You support them, but why? Because people died right? Then why don't you support your own when we die? Oh Shanice it's only a profile picture you are making a big deal out of nothing. No, no I'm not. Remember when people changed their profile pictures black to unite together that black lives mattered? Oh yes I do. They demolished those blacked out profile pictures. BLACK PEOPLE DRAGGGGEEEEEDDDDD those who changed it. In some of your words " what is a profile picture going to do?" Soooo tell me .. what is a profile picture going to do.
I'm not giving anyone a side eye that is turning their profile picture to "show support" but ummm .. est-ce que tu comprends cela
xoxo
