buzzkillscg asked: The majority of people are centric thinkers. It's only important enough to say something about it if it affects them directly. I have to actively work against that mentality, but I can't honestly say I'm always successful.

“Wherever we went, we were immensely impressed by the results of the fierce struggle that had been waged against racism after the triumph of the revolution. The first executive decrees of the new government had been to abolish segregation in the cities, brought to Cuba by corrupt capitalists from the United States.

blackisbeyondbeautiful:
I don’t like it. We can have lectures for days on all the other nationalities in history but when it does come to Black History we spend half of a class period on it, if that and we get the “you don’t even have to take notes on this.” It makes me feel some type of way… Do they not think we’re important? Inferior? The bullshit I see in every history class. As if the...

iamateenagefeminist:
I’m very tired of hearing that women only make 77 cents on the male’s dollar. It’s not a correct statistic. It should read: White women only make 77 cents on the white man’s dollar.
That’s the real statistic.
Not all women are white. WOMEN don’t make 77 cents on the dollar, WHITE WOMEN do.
It’s important to remember.
Because every time we repeat that 77 number with no...
