I just told my wife today I never put my hood up when I wear any jacket with a hood because I don't want to get shot by a cops or arrested for something I didn't do. Damn shame but it is what it is. I know I'm not the only one. #beingblackinamerica
I'm #notsorry for wanting what I deserve, and I'm #notafraidtowalkaway to find it
There is #nosuchthingasnormal
I'm not sorry for #beingblack
#beingblackinamerica
No longer apologizing for not being what #youareusedto
#livingauthentically
In the middle of committing a treasonous act, you are unalived and now your family is getting 5 million but a black women who are unalived while they’re sleeping, playing video games or trying to get directions their families get nothing 🙄

A Black friend asked me, “Do you ever thank God for your blessings?”
I said, “Sometimes.”
He replied, “Then thank Him you’re not Black in America—especially in North Carolina.”
I stood there—shaken, saddened, and wide awake.

I know it’s the ban and the thing that is happening on Monday, but I have such a sad sense of doom in my bones. But I have to hold it together for my tiny humans. I need to rest. #momguilt #tiktokrefugee #beingblackinamerica
