if only natural girls could be happy being natural and self-secure enough being natural without putting down black girls who aren’t… that would be a beautiful thing. :) 

THE SKIN IM IN

I love to claim and take pride in my heritage and culture.Many African Americans love to claim any other nationality but their own.We as a community fought for our freedom and voice in the world and now 80% of us are throwing our race and appearance under the bus. Most of us African Americans as one are disowning our soles to the fullest from the weaves to the way we walk,talk,and breath. There is no White or Black way of living but im saying get real and be true to yourself.It seems like every other quote on quote “black person” wants and claims to be indian….. i mean get real like really be you cause you know good and well that if someone walks around saying “im black” that you would get mad and offended. Take pride in your nationality and start to walk in the path that the Black Panthers paved for us. Be true to yourself because at the end of the day you are on THE SKIN YOUR IN.

NAPPY HEAD

These dancing spirals 

around my head

twist and kink

curling

Frizzingly at the ends

into a shiny halo

of beautiful African Hair.

And you call it nappy?
