29. I don't have aids

Tue Apr 30, 2013, 11:58 AM

Apr 2013

I know - as well as I don't have any host of genetic diseases. I know because I'm being run through the TTC 'route'. The one where ONE fallopian tube is bad - but I'm a black woman so expendable in my country - so they THINK they are going to try to take both.

When black folks and specifically black women are given a fair shake AND the medical system PROVES to us they can be trusted after jacking us over for eons - then they can have my shit.

Until then? I don't trust some rogue racist to not inject me with it and feed you some bullshit line that I'm a whore on welfare.

Selfish? Open your eyes.

America sucks for black women.

And I'll die on that hill.
