'I view this from a Human perspective'

I really think the war on terror is a bunch of bullshit
Just a poor excuse for you to use up all your bullets
How much money does it take to really make a full clip
9/11 building 7 did they really pull it
Uhh, And a bunch of other cover ups
Your childs future was the first to go with budget cuts
If you think that hurts then, wait here comes the uppercut
The school was garbage in the first place, that’s on the up and up
Keep you at the bottom but tease you with the uppercrust
You get it then they move it so you never keeping up enough
If you turn on TV all you see’s a bunch of “what the fucks”
Dude is dating so and so blabbering bout such and such
And that ain’t Jersey Shore, homie that’s the news
And these the same people that supposed to be telling us the truth
Limbaugh is a racist, Glenn Beck is a racist
Gaza strip was getting bombed, Obama didn’t say shit
That’s why I ain’t vote for him, next one either
I’ma part of the problem, my problem is I’m peaceful
And I believe in the people.
[…]

Now you can say it ain’t our fault if we never heard it
But if we know better than we probably deserve it
Jihad is not a holy war, wheres that in the worship?
Murdering is not Islam!
And you are not observant
And you are not a muslim
Israel don’t take my side cause look how far you’ve pushed them
Walk with me into the ghetto, this where all the Kush went
Complain about the liquor store but what you drinking liquor for?
Complain about the gloom but when’d you pick a broom up?
Just listening to Pac ain’t gone make it stop
A rebel in your thoughts, ain’t gon make it halt
If you don’t become an actor you’ll never be a factor
Pills with million side effects
Take em when the pains felt
Wash them down with Diet soda!
Killin off your brain cells
Crooked banks around the World
Would gladly give a loan today
So if you ever miss a payment
They can take your home away!
[…]
I think that all the silence is worse than all the violence
Fear is such a weak emotion that’s why I despise it
We scared of almost everything, afraid to even tell the truth
So scared of what you think of me, I’m scared of even telling you
Sometimes I’m like the only person I feel safe to tell it to
I’m locked inside a cell in me, I know that there’s a jail in you
Consider this your bailing out, so take a breath, inhale a few
My screams is finally getting free, my thoughts is finally yelling through

White privilege is when Trayvon Martin’s murder didn’t make you fear for you life and the life of your loved ones.

bad-dominicana:

you want reverse racism?

k

lemme shove you out all the positions of power

deny you access to all your basic needs

quarter, skin, hang, burn, villify and enslave you

en masse

degrade every last physical trait and your existence

and take credit for anything youve ever done well

for several hundreds years at that

and then

we can talk about how

“reverse racist” i am

Being “anti-PC” is not sticking it to the Man, it’s sticking it to all the people whom the Man routinely stomps on.

Lady Zora Speaketh: Racism: What Does It Mean? »

zorascreation:

Racism is not just about color. I repeat. Racism is not just about color. When we tell these clueless folks on Tumblr that racism is prejudice + power, we should break down that power into easy-to-comprehend nuggets for better retention:

Prejudice: the ideology that Group B is inherently…

I don't claim to be a social justice blogger. I dislike those people; they're bullies just like Dion. But good job on passing judgment based on assumptions!

girl are you really still arguing about this? you are trying to silence a black person facing PHYSICAL THREATS
you are EFFECTIVELY contributing to the oppression and endangerment of black people
just another racist white privileged feminist

haha wtf? I asked me to followers to collect the people who follow them. Neither of those people follow me and I don’t follow them, so how am I supposed to know that?…

you can’t claim to be a social justice blogger and tell a black person discussing their experience not to ‘play oppression olympics’. You know who says ‘oppression olympics’? People with a fuckload of privilege. If you understood (and followed Dion’s blog), saw the daily insults and threats POC are faced with, you would shut the fuck up. and you would, above all, NOT make this about you. this isn’t an occasion for you to get offended. Don’t tell poc you’re gonna leave all the work to them so they ‘see how that works’. 1/ it shows you don’t give a shit about them anyway, cause that’s a horrible thing to say 2/ think theyll miss you? with allies like this,.who needs enemies? now STOP derailing and silencing people of color, white feminists.
