Just had a convo about this very thing. If it ever comes down to a BW and BM in this city that people respect, the BW won’t be given the benefit of the doubt.
Because it’s “Trust Black Women” everyday until that Black woman has been mistreated by one of your friends/colleagues. https://twitter.com/felonious_munk/status/1246102996871786496

The way I’ve witnessed BW try and navigate around “BM” in a small, big city is wild. But, it always (always) comes down to reputation management which usually comes at the expense of our silence. Where do you go? Who do you go to when it be your own people?!
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again, that’s why holding your circles accountable is so important. I know I’m specifically talking about Black folks in this thread but accountability (no matter who you are) saves lives. I promise you.
