one of the most gross things I think is about is all of the trauma porn/Black misery plays & documentaries, anthologies that will ‘break’ records & all the actors & writers & Black audiences reliving it mentally. again. and again. & again. whilst yt people 👏🏿 on their FEET.
Swearing blind that ‘THIS IS THE MOST AMAZING’ dhdjdshshdh while keeping their fucking mouths closed and feet in their beds. when we are being actually MURDERED.
And our Black selves, trying our fucking best to just LIVE. Having to make shit fucking memes to deal with our pain, forcing ourselves to write from a place of hope and transcendence. knowing deep down the trauma porn is what puts money in our pockets. I feel like throwing up.
