Strong, black women
I have the bad habit of publishing my rough drafts to issues on Tumblr, instead of refining my work. So, please bear with me. :/ This ended up turning into a bit of a rant. Sorry if it’s kinda rough.
Growing up, I thought I knew a decent amount about the Black Power Movement and the Civil Rights Movement. Honestly, I never would have qualified myself as a scholar of black history, but I...
Will Post Later
AHHHHHHH. I’m so exicted. I’ll be posting up later today (or maybe tomorrow) about the sanitization (?) of the black movement and about the truth about some of the leaders, as well as people in the background.
Sooooooo inspired. Also, I defended black love in class. woot woot.
So… I love my new theme. Let me know if you can comment on my posts (and is you can use Disqus)!

shesaloverofchrist:
Nowhere in the Bible do I see talk about a soul-mate. Nor do I read of any idea that God has assigned everyone this soul-mate.
Sorry to burst anyone’s bubble.
