To Whom It May Concern: I am a Black woman and my life matters. I am valuable. I am beautiful. I am educated. I am resilient. I am enough. I am a sister. I am a daughter. I am a mother. I am a wife. I am the fertilizer to the Black man’s seed. I won’t allow you to dim my light. I won’t allow you to mute me. I won’t allow you to devalue me. I won’t allow you to tell me how to be. I WILL use my voice against injustice. I WILL live according to my own terms with no regard to how my existence makes you feel. Best But No Regards, Unapologetically Me @BestButNoRegards on Instagram Copy, Paste + Share 👑

the revolution is internal too. let every single thing that does not nurture you + your blackness burn down. every relationship. organization. corporation. outdated belief. every lie. like the one where they had ya waiting on a savior. NO ONE IS COMING TO SAVE US 🗣 RISE UP!!! TAKE UP YOUR CROWN!! ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾 heal. love. hold space. vote. cry (just not on national television. Dr. Carr said stop that!!) protest. loot. pray. burn shit down. boycott. blackout your screen. whatever you gotta do. we need all the parts of US. every single part of us deserves to be validated. and please venerate your ancestors, touch your head to the ground, SAY THEIR NAMES.

P.S. we born perfect, fuck all the B.S. everybody wanna be us. We just gotta see us. Inshallah. -HOV 🙏🏾 #blackouttuesday

ifalomo + ifatunmininu. 👯 since I’m not in LA for your birthday as planned I’ll just throw it back to a night of beer in the parking lot, BDSM, uphill limbos, 3am Waffle House pit stops and koalas. 😭. Do something only your inner child can appreciate today! XX

Oh Sedona, I didn’t even know I needed you. ❤️
