I respect the fuck out of Solange for this and I suggest any black person who has access to these services does the same and support black businesses!

If there aren’t any Black-owned banks near you, you can support Black-owned businesses both online and in person. Black Exchange (formerly Afro-Arts) has hipped me to so many Black-owned businesses. It was through them that I found Philadelphia Printworks which makes a dope James Baldwin sweatshirt that I practically live in. I also found Belle Butters through them and it has my natural hair flourishing.

If you’re on the go and want to see what Black-owned businesses are near you, download WhereU. The app is a directory of local Black-Owned Businesses and has information for the United States, the UK, France, and Canada! It’s user-based so you can add any Black-owned businesses you haven’t seen on the app!”

I hate flakes. And I hate myself for taking people by their word. You say one thing then the opposite. Back and forth, back and forth. Fuck me for having expectations, right?

and for the love of Christ please stop reducing critiques against the police and military to personal critiques against your family members involved in them. Like no one cares. The damaged caused by both institutions far outweighs any good that your individual relative may have effected nor do their motives for enlisting justify the intrinsic violence of these institutions
