I sat through a class today where the teacher said,
Discrimination happens. I’m not gonna sit and pretend it doesn’t. But also sometimes you have to decide personally when to speak up and when to ignore it because your here to do your job and you can sit and take the nonsense .
I disagree.
If there’s nonsense then it needs to be stopped.
If there’s discrimination of any kind to any degree, it needs to be acknowledged, addressed, and put to rest.
If you have to walk away from 100 jobs because they’d rather have someone who will sit and take it instead of your courageous and worthy work, then you have to walk away.
In walking away you turn tides.
No walking away you leave your imprint.
Who cares if you can take a punch and keep walking
You don’t have to.
You don’t have to let the next person take it.
If you walk away do it with an impact.
Make it known why you walked away.
Let other people know why you walked away.
If they didn’t correct themselves and try it again, that’s up to the next ones to work out.
But love yourself
God will provide
His will is for you to have the best.
You don’t need to push through if you don’t have to.
You’re a human
And if someone can’t see that, or won’t act like it
They don’t deserve you, your time, your energy, or your work.
Point blank period.
I Will Never Again Speak Another Negative Word
I will say I can , instead of I can*t.
It’s no longer a word in my vocabulary.
Blackness is Self Acceptance
I’m the blackest I can be when I’m living care free
