Sick of it.
Black woman, born and raised in America here.
����...
My stats:
1)Father went to prison when I was 5. For what? Selling heroin. 18 years in prison. Immediately went back to Nigeria in 2013. Haven’t seen or heard from him since.
2) 5 years of age: Sexually assaulted by a relative.
3) Battling on and off major depressive disorder since I was ten.
Statistically, I should definitely NOT be a 27 year old middle class, college educated woman, single, no kids, no divorces, and a TV political commentator with a non-profit organization under my belt, at that. But...here I am.
Guess what? I had a badass mother who taught me the right VALUES. Who taught me how to be strong and to pursue a life that was better than the one that she left behind in Nigeria.
Who taught me that in America, because of America, you can be anything you want to be regardless of the color of your skin, regardless of your background, regardless of your gender, your sex, your political affiliation, regardless of the unfortunate circumstances that try to overcome your life.
Please STOP this narrative that because you are black that you therefore cannot succeed and/or reach your full potential . It hurts no one else but the black community. Our failures are not the fault of other races or genders. Just like our successes are not the result of others but the rewards of our own actions.
Enough. If you are afraid of not living to the age of 18, then look at your environment, your attitudes, not your skin tone, and change it.

watch this liberal try to argue:
So you probably noticed, as I did, this feminist host feministsplains and projects all her talking points onto Peterson multiple times. Plus, she womanterupts him more frequently than the many curls in her hair failed to bounce. Ah the miracles of product. Don’t make her interruptions a drinking game. Your liver might identify as a keg, but reality says otherwise.
Peterson’s points are solid. If women want to do well in business, they have to be fierce. If women are going to compete with men for jobs, better play hard. If your goal, as a lady, is to go get your success, then girl, go find your backbone and fight hard. Don’t be meek, don’t be passive. Be assertive, know your worth, prove your worth, then go get it. Whining, moaning, bitching about unfairness do not count toward proving your worth. No one cares if your a beached manatee.
The patriarchy is just a scapegoat for weak women. An excuse they use to explain their personal failings.
If you’re going to fight Peterson, bring your A-game.

planned parenthood banking on *more* liberal mental illness:
As the U.S. abortion rate continues to decline and regulations tighten, Planned Parenthood is looking toward a new source of revenue – hormone ‘sex-change’ treatment for minors at Medicaid expense.
The abortion giant has been dispensing ‘hormone therapy’ drugs to gender-confused adults since 2016 – giving out transgender hormones to 250 gender dysphorics in the Sarasota area alone last year. The Guardian reports that “Planned Parenthood is one of the largest sources in the U.S. of transgender healthcare.”
The nation’s largest and most lucrative abortion conglomerate has now “decided it was time for us to expand the care that we were providing to minors,” Vice President of Medical Affairs Suzie Prabhakaran told the Sun Coast.

how to celebrate MLK day; black liberal (sorry redundant) issue:
On Monday night a man from Ohio spent Martin Luther King day in a Columbus hospital.
Andrew Caster sat in the lobby of his apartment complex wearing a patriotic t-shirt when he was attacked without warning; being clubbed in his head with a ringer from a mop bucket.
Gasner Beauvoir , a 27 year old fellow tenant, was arrested the following morning for the brutalization of Caster, resulting in 15 staples to his head and a severe concussion. Records indicate Beauvoir has a history of assault as well as domestic violence.
According to Caster, the lobby video shows Beauvoir stalking him for several minutes before he struck. Beauvoir did not attempt to rob the victim, and no words were exchanged.
The only thing that seemed to distinguish Caster was a shirt he wore which featured a red, white, and blue American eagle with the words “American Freedom.” Mr. Caster made his way to the front desk of the apartment complex in a bloody daze where the clerk on duty intervened. Beauvoir then produced a large hunting knife. There was a brief stand off before the suspect dropped the knife and made for the door.
Suspect Gasner Beauvoir
“I have been told by several individuals that when he came down and saw me sitting in the lobby he went back up to his room and talked to a neighbor to loan him the Bowie knife which he said he needed for cooking,” Caster told DANGEROUS.
“He came back down to the lobby where I was sitting and actually waited for the police officer that was on duty to leave, stared at me for around 10 minutes and then assaulted me.”
The video of the assault is now in the possession of the local police. DANGEROUS left a message with Detective Charles Rosch of the Columbus police, and is awaiting his comments.
The suspect returned to apartment the following morning around 4am where he was arrested. HE was released on $25,000 bail under the condition he cannot return to the premises.
Caster received 15 staples in his head from the assault.
Questions remain about what prompted this seemly random violent outburst. Did Beauvoir snap, or was it mistaken identity?
But a review of Beauvoir’s social media accounts reveal he is staunchly anti-Trump and obsessively shares posts indicating his irritation with the current president. In addition to propagating alt-left pages such as “Occupy Democrats” and “We Voted for Hillary,” he routinely posts black supremacist propaganda.
His pages are littered with hashtags such as “#BLACKExcellence,” “#CODEBLACKLIFE, “#NOTMYpresident,” “DUMPtrump,” and, perplexingly, “#TeamLOVE.”
This MLK day the only white person his the lobby, wearing the colors of the American flag was allegedly attacked by the suspect, and Caster believes his political beliefs were the reason. Caster is also a member of the conservative fraternal organization Proud Boys, founded by media personality Gavin McInnes.
“He could have very well known I was a part of this organization just by the stuff I wear on a daily basis,” Caster said of his neighbor.
“This was premeditated. He either knew I was a Proud Boy or that I was at least a Trump supporter. Based on his Facebook and from what I’ve heard from other people he is also a Muslim and his Facebook and Twitter accounts show he is very much a black lives matter supremacist,” Caster says.
Caster’s t-shirt he wore the night of the assault.
“While I do not know the exact reason he attacked me, I really feel was due to my political stance or even just the color of my skin which makes me sick. In Trump’s America it’s apparently not okay to be white.”
DANGEROUS was unable to confirm the suspect’s religious affiliation.
Caster says he is a lifelong patriot. Recently, in the aftermath of Hurricane Irma, Caster was noted as joining other Proud Boys in Florida with the relief effort.
Speaking to the Gateway Pundit McInnes said about the assault, “If this was based on his shirt, it says a lot about patriotism in Trump’s America.”
With the left wing media’s endless reports of hate crime hysteria or outright hoaxes their silence is deafening on stories such as this.
