Feel free to comment about living in mostly black nations and how you’re currently navigating with all that is going on today. I've been having migraine headaches lately. Looking at the injustice going on can really weigh on one mentally, which can eventually take on a physical toll. Please take breaks from social media if you need to. Take care of yourselves. Do something that brings you joy or relaxes you before you return.
Also, I need to note that I definitely have seen people, for the most part, being super positive and uplifting to each other and I thank everybody for that!

I’m watching this video while doing some flat twists and it really just feels like I’m listening to a friend vent about the things we as black women/people are facing every day, so thank you ❤️❤️❤️ you wouldn’t believe how many people I’ve had to 1. check and 2. cut off these past few days over everything that’s going on. I’m also trying to transition to buying as black owned as I can, hasn’t been a problem with my hair products LOL but gonna start moving on to beauty/makeup and eventually household things too and everything else!! It’s a lifestyle change I think we should all be moving to make tbh

You were spitting so much truth in this video. Thank you for sharing the history, the things people can do going forward and the examples of everyday people. Also thank you for being vulnerable and sharing your tears, the ones that were heard in your voice and also the ones that were shed off screen

I'm three years late here but thank you SO much for this commentary & for your bravery in speaking up. As a collective with 1 trillion in buying power, it's heartbreaking that many Black folks don't support each other & unite. Nowadays there's an epidemic of Black men (& women) "tap dancing" for the White power structure. We need more of our own with your mindset Much love to you!💜💙💚

Performance art and transformative action are two different things. I have an issue with the fact that we ask for a change in judicial laws and we get kneeling in the streets by killer cops. We ask for reparations and we get the Black National Athem before a stupid football game that I won't even watch and Juneteenth as a holiday. Sorry, but these protests will not be ending any time soon. For a minute, African Americans and their allies need to focus on us and only us. When we win, everybody wins so ignore the distractions.

I refuse to build up a community who till this day barely gives a damn about breonnas death! I am glad i never had a cape that i now need to burn!

Sandra bland, Shantel Davis, Atatiana Jefferson and so many more women never got their justice. Current day, the unjust death of a black woman has never really been the catalyst of any major movements to this degree and I agree that this is wrong. My message isn't perfect but I do love and appreciate listening to ForHarriet and her recent video titled "What happens to Black women and girls in a world without police? with Dr. Brittney Cooper," dives deeper into the issue. But I hear you.

​@@cockyretrospect4085 First time watching this and let me say your a saint in my eyes Cocky, you are a very very brave person. Check out Sgt Dorsey Speaks for some balance and perspective, but please don't let it consume you, ok. Some times you just got to watch a movie or do your favorite hobby, not that there is any running from this but you got to keep a good head on those shoulders, void of as much stress as possible.
