"A black woman brought you into this world, so there's no reason for you to disrespect one"

Do black boys really see what they've done? Like have they actually taken the time to hear our opinions or study our features or  hear the anger slip out of our mouths? Or do they just think we are just another ghetto, ratchet, typical black girl who's just loud for no reason?

Dear Black Boys, SUPRISE! We are not all like that, matter of fact we are better than that stereotype you continue to put us on. We are not bitter, we are not loud, and we are not stupid. We are hardworking, ambitious, and smart.

Dear Black Men, the more you go around saying "white woman are better" or "black woman have an attitude all the time", makes this generations black boys think they not only want a white woman, but need a white woman. It's okay to go around and try some milk with your coffee but it's not okay to disrespect us, especially when your mother is black.

It is hard to accept that our own color, the ones who are supposed to be there for us, who are supposed to help us when other races attack us do not have our backs.

All those times Serena was called a monkey, a man, and other cruel "nicknames" that most likely hurt her, only 25% of black men said how rude it was, while the others laughed and joined in. While Twitter had different tones of woman lined up, they said things like "line up from pretty to ugly" and "Real hair to fake hair" or the time Blue was made fun of for her fro and black features.

Dear Black Men, it makes me so angry when you don't take up for what you do. You claim you're so tough and a "real nigga" when you can't even own up to half of the things you do. When you sit there and have the nerve to read a post that's says "black men...." and write a comment getting mad that It didn't say only SOME black men do what they do, you're the stubborn one.

Ugh, talk about rant on. Most of the time, I'm only Angry because I have the right to be angry. If you're calling me ghetto because I dyed my curls a deep blue meanwhile Becca has bright Green and yellow hair, I think I have a right to be mad. If I hear you call my friends dark skin ugly, yes I'm going to be mad and talk sense into you. I am not gonna sit there and fight ignorance with ignorance, I will talk class and check you like a real one.
