I remember when...

So do you remember Tag, Bebo, MySpace, flicker, and photobucket ?

I do ! Those were all popping back when I was in middle school, and early high school. MySpace I use to love it because I could edit my back ground ... Have the words dropping from the top of the page, people could comment and show my page "some luv" and have music play as soon as you got on it. Lol it was poppin . Tag I was on there in the chat rooms... I use to talk shit to random people and flirt (omg I was so young) and it was cool until MySpace upgraded lol. I am amazed at how much social media has evolved but yet they are still the same. We no longer have chat rooms but we have instant messaging so you might as well say they are chat rooms. I feel like the social media now might be TO much sometimes with the things they allow ... Like now Facebook all you see is nudes and people being "exposed" I don't remember all that back in my day. The chat room was lien the most action I got on tag and MySpace I don't remember having any issues on there it was all just fun and cool. Omg I like her page and the pictures or omg what song is this I love it ... Let me copy it to my playlist. Little shit like that ... It was so innocent back then. NOW you got social media thugs and gangstas and open stars and porn producers who feel like they can just expose a girl just because ... 🙄🙄. Social media it the root of all evil yet the way of life . I honestly cannot tell you how much I rely on social media to keep me in the know. It's better then watching the news because they can sometimes turn something negative into positive with all the comedians in the world -_- it's just easier to read stuff on soial media them it is on the news . It's almost like on the news you hear about the same shit .. Black folks, killers, robbers, thugs, drugs and insanity . It's scary almost .. Social media you get a little bit of everything .. Laughs, cries, memories, good, bad , ugly and whatever else. Like we discussed in class social media is happy lol if it's not happy it doesn't get a lot of attention. But I mean I could go on . Social media rocks ! I love it ! Except when the Internet thugs come and it takes me out of character lol jk jk ! But blah I'm done ... PEACE!

Black vs. White? But why?

Well I haven't blogged in so long I don't know where to start. I could talk about media, politics, inequality, relationships, movies, tv shows, cartoons, etc. BUT I am going to talk about inequality because it will help with my project in inequality. Lol so if you don't want to get real stop reading RIGHT HERE! .... (Waits for you to leave) 

Well where do I start? IM BLACK! Pure Black! If I get any blacker I'd be oil! Anyways ... In my class we talk about white privilege. How white people have advantages that put black people at a disadvantage LIKE ... Job opportunities, going into a store and not having to be followed, driving while black, lol etc. but uh anyways,

So we talk about these privileges and how america needs to change and blah blah blah, I love talking about things like this because I grew up and are still growing up differently from the white kids in my class. I have stories!!! But crazy thing is I'm a junior now my first time being around white people was my freshman year at GGC. I felt so out of place... It was like all whites and a spot of black. I look around on campus and it's still semi divided. Can you fill up a whole hand of how many friends you have that don't look like you? I have 2 ... I can't blame anybody but myself .. It's almost like a comfort thing, it's all I know. I have nothing against white people because to be honest I have had maybe a handful of incidents that I KNOW happened because of my skin color. But that doesn't make me classify all white people into one like they do blacks. I have met plenty of white people some I've liked some I haven't but same thing for blacks, Hispanics, Indians, and anybody else! I was taught at a early age "what is color"?  They bleed the same color blood as I do, change they draws the same way I do (maybe not as many times as me but hey) I didn't know what the REAL definition of racism was until I got to College and started working. Even in high school I never thought of it as "oh white people got it better then me and whatever" if you ask me I'm rich shittt. I've never wanted for nothing, I've never had to go without food, I've never had to beg for nothing so im just as "Priveliged" as the white folks BUT I've been around people who were less fortunate, I've watched my mother struggle I've watched my grandparents struggle I've seen family members STRUGGLE friends die, I had a teacher commit suicide because she couldn't take it no more so when I sit in class and listen to how black people are the "Victims" and how much SHIT we/them/they have to go through and knowing what I could possibly have to go through because of how America is it angers me because I STILL do not know WHY! WHAT TF MAKES ME DIFFERENT FROM THE WHITE GIRL IN CLASS? my skin color does NOT define me! Just like her skin color does not define her! We could be driving the same car, got the same job, make the same amount so somebody tell me how that makes her more "Privileged" then me? ANYONE ? Uhuh ... Anyways. I could go on for days , I understand how this happens and why this is but I don't understand WHY ... And why is it we never talk about other ethnicities it's always black and white but whatever no need to waste anymore time.... I love you white people ... Hope you love me! NIGHT
