People love to forget Michael Jackson’s blackness

people love to think that Michael Jackson forgot his blackness

People love to pretend to forget that Michael Jackson’s autopsy results showed that he DID have a skin disease and never “dyed” his skin.

People also love to revel in rumours and concentrate on the private life of celebrities instead of their actual message. Michael Jackson was a proud black man who spoke against racism, poverty, homelessness, the lack of education, hurting nature, war, and tabloid culture which distracts people from bigger issues. (Look up especially the second verse of Tabloid Junkie, it’s as relevant as the above gifs of They Don’t Care About Us.)

He not only spoke against these things but he did his everything to spread the message and constantly practiced what he preached and used his money to make a difference in people’s lives. Yet people choose to ignore that and use him as the butt of a joke.

Michael Jackson always said he was black

NEVER ONCE has he referred to himself as white

The media tried their very best as framing him as a self hating person who whitewashed himself.

fuck this post. Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver were overlooked too and they are who i’m most excited to see. Fuck this bitch. Fuck her entitled overblown fans. Whatever.

I think the excitement of Black Widow winning is mostly about how the original tweet ignored a woman in favor of the heavily promoted men, only for the woman to be the one with the most votes.

The Boko Haram massacres that the media isn’t talking about.

They’re burning men to a crisp, raping dozens of women before putting bullets in them, strapping explosives to children and forcing them into busy town squares…

Don’t allow yourself to be blind to the injustices happening all over the world. One is not more important than the other; murder is murder.

Omg

This hurts so much!! My heart can’t deal 😢

If 2000 white people got killed in any country we would be hearing about it for months

😢 This is our world? How can people accept this? How can anyone think this is ohkay? And how can you not cover this? Is dark skin that much of a problem for you? Fuck you! These are people! Living, loving, breathing people who have lost their lives violently! And you are so scared of dark skin that you can’t even show that this is what’s happening to them? Is it cuz then the injustices happening to people of darker skin in every culture will be true? You can’t face that this is true. This genocide of a people with the only reason being because their skin is darker than yours. I’m so fucking disgusted and emotional. I Can’t even look at the picture. But I will to remind me that this is what’s happening. No matter how hard it is I will look at it for strength. And I will never stop fighting for the justice of my people and anyone who is threatened and killed and feared because of things they can’t control, because of things that shouldn’t be feared.
So appalled and fucking livid. Damn

I am a South African.
I have been scrolling down my timeline for days now waiting to see something about Nigeria. This is the first post that I have seen and it breaks my heart.
When Mike Brown was killed every second post was about it. About the injustice of the whole situation. Everyone was up in arms and everyone was angry – it was amazing to see. It was unity and solidarity and awareness.
But now these attacks have begun. Terrible, terrible things have been happening in Nigeria and nobody knows. There are no voices crying out for these innocent souls because the world is turning a blind eye. Because ‘who cares about Africa’ – let alone Nigeria.
This isn’t just because of race – these horrors aren’t being kept from the world because these people are black. Hell – they aren’t even being kept from you! Its because nobody wants to report a story about a third world country. It’s not glamorous enough. It’s not ‘good enough’ for mainstream media.

And that is fucking unacceptable.

Bonus points for it being a white guy and a person of color.

Double bonus points for it being a man and a women
