Everyone is allowed to share their pain EXCEPT BLACK WOMEN

Blog post anyone?

People have a hard time seeing others acknowledge their painful experiences. Especially when it comes to women of color.

I realize that when Black women decide to empower themselves by saying "I'm strong" or "I won't allow a man to walk over me" it's called "man bashing".

If we point out misogyny and sexism as it relates to Black culture Non-colored people always say "well all women go through this"

Acknowledging that intersections exist is so difficult for them and if you happen to focus on Black women's experiences it must mean we are excluding others and ignoring others pain.

Why have we got to a place that if we FOCUS in on OUR experiences that it is called not caring about other races of women?

Why is caring about ourselves so "hateful" to you? Why is empowering ourselves so hateful to you?

It's the people who are supposed to be open-minded who deny Black experiences and want to get rid of the whole race thing so they won't have to a. lose their white friends b. They believe acknowledging racism is enabling to black people c. If they are not black they want to ignore racism and intersections because any systems of oppression are supposedly imaginary.

It's funny how everyone is allowed to express their pains and frustrations, EXCEPT Black women and people.

Everyone is allowed to praise their culture and acknowledge history in their culture, EXCEPT Black people.

Everyone is allowed to point the finger at Black women and how we supposedly ruin the world, but the moment Black women acknowledge that he has been abused or felt defeated at some time at the hands of a Black man she is "bitter" or "man hating"

Then you want to convince me that race is just a biological construct

So this means all races, black people included are biologically motivated to ignore Black voices pointing out racism, sexism, misogyny, and homophobia "playing the victim" and countering it with "black people aren't the only ones who experience that" when that is obvious.

I'm not buying it. People are socialized to hate Blackness, Black people included.

Call me "divisive" , "man hating", and "race baiting" all you want I SEE what the hell is going on.

If acknowledging ways that racism, sexism, and misogyny affects everyone and focusing on marginalized groups offend you or piss you off or make you feel like others are being ignored then that is YOU with your faulty thinking.‪#‎CreWisdom‬.
