Fuck What You Heard
There is no light skin vs dark skin. Only brown skin between us.
To be proud of what society deems unacceptable is a cultural achievement.
To wake up and love yourself.
To view yourself as attractive.
To diffuse every negative comment with a smile.
To physically and mentally fight every day of your life.
Honored to wear to the skin I do. Honored to experience the things I wish to.
Keep your head up.
Black IS beautiful.
Fuck what you heard!
