I really Loved this article amongst all the weird fetish n pedo accusation stuff
I wonder why it never ran
n wish music journalism was in the right hands again
no one is asking honest questions n everyone is tired of the performative illusions we all See through them now
Im always trying to offer ways to deeper connection through conflict but americans have Been raised n socialized to run or pull out a gun
instead of leaning in smh
the collective n cultural curse is avoidance
n so nothing ever Changes
like let me interview them
everyone too cowardly to recognize some conflict is an invitation
n theres a difference between a call out n a call in
whew
my capacity for holding both ends of spectrums is so expansive
n my ability to reset karmic balance is otherworldly
Venus will flip the scales swinging them towards justice
snatching tainted legacies n breaking ancient curses
I can respect someones creative ability without worshipping them n handing over my personal Power n branding n ase n morphing into their minion
I cannot Be coerced or moved by groupthink
I am whole already
I am the creator of my reality
thank you lane riley
protect lane riley at all costs
respect lane riley
I Love you lane riley
reading about the parents of artists will always Be my favorite
I wish there was more info on Lil Bs relationship with Black women…
this entire year Ive jus wondered n studied like
why does rap (n the entire world) h8 Black n trans women so much? n why is everything staged around fake beef using women as collateral?
why am I always this weird scapegoat?
n what is the obsession with gayness? fr fr the queerbaiting n homoeroticism is sort of endearing at best (n literally homicidal at worst)
I am tryna understand where that comes from
what exactly creates certain personalities n encourages violence (while pretending to Be above it)?
as I raise my sun to Love respect n protect all humans
n especially women
it def starts with some sort of fracture in the Home (that I blame on a system powered by exploiting women)
these are Times of atonement n acknowledgment of harm
the rape n theft n erasure of the Black woman as God
men have done wrong for tooo long n accountability n restoration is a practice of Higher Love
nourished by frameworks created by Black n Native women scholars
as I heal from my own experiences of paternal abandonment
at de roots in de dirty widdit
facing final bosses of toxic leo male tactics
I am centering the protection of the youth through my Black feminist theory background n my personal connection to TMH n the Earth n my own mixed heritages give me privileges I wield more consciously the more I do my own work
I bow to no human male leader
n my partner in this Life would never expect me to cede my Light
as an empire crumbles
the Love of my Life is me
n still I am working to release the pain of getting things wrong in Love n how that clouds vision
I have no shame in my processing
we have to delete everything we thought about anything
especially what we believe(d) about ourSelves
I am running full speed over the edge of my ego I will Never kill it
my guidance leads me to deconstruct it within n reshape it towards liberation
even more intact now
more supported n with better guidance
in right relationship
with our elders ancestors children the artists n (Grand)Mothers as guides
reparation restoration n reciprocity are the foundations of a balanced Life
towards the abolishment of rape culture
naming misogynoir for what it is
staying lucid
by any means necessary
shoutout to the actual based parents
n everyone really trying to make amends on these cursed lands
showing it n taking action
the work Never ends
I Love you women n children of this world
I Love this bloody soil with all of me
may we all get Free
& so it is + will Be.
