Veneration of the Dark Godis is Veneration of the Whole Wombn. Our Power is in Darkness, but first wo-men have to leave our patriarchal conditioning behind - leave the father's house and his rules! Embrace the Way of the Womb!
Listen... I won't write a friggin dissertation like some. Promise! This is no different than the Zoe Saldana bs as Nina Simone. And as long as we, Black Wombn, dont own our image? They will continue to use mixed race women as the sole representation of blackness. Light skinned women are privileged over dark or even brown women. Always have been. Always will be so long as those women are allowed to don the faces of True Black Wombn.

This morning I woke up, turned on the morning news and immediately had to change the channel. The headline story read something along the lines of, “Best Anti-Aging Creams: How to Turn Back Your Face’s Biological Clock.” Really? Some woman’s non-existent smile lines are more controversial than gun control? And yet, to my dismay and utter confusion, when I switched the channel to a different news outlet the top story was, “No Money Necessary: Be Beautiful At Every Age.” Huh? So which is it? Am I supposed to remain youthful for the rest of my life or embrace aging gracefully? It got me thinking. This was just one small instance out of many daily occurrences in which women are bombarded with catch-22s and conflicting ideas on what we should and should not do as females. There are countless rules imposed on us, each one negating the other. I, and many ladies like myself, simply give up listening. We’re sick of being politically correct. We’re sick of people telling us what words we can and cannot use to describe us. Let us just be. These are the 72 paradoxes of being a woman (insert a big middle finger here). These are examples of two dueling ideals pushed on us by society that just can’t reconcile with each other: 1. Banish “bossy”; be a lady-boss. Article Source Here |
