This has been a good year for black folk concerning us becoming billionaires

• Jay-Z and Beyonce are music’s first billionaire couple
• Janet Jackson married a fine Arab billionaire
• Jay Electronica got himeself a member of the real Illuminati (the Rothschilds are the Illuminati)
• Naomi Campbell still got that rich rich ass Russian guy

the most important things I think we as black people should do for ourselves is to remember that we are people, that we are capable of great things, that people that look like us have achieved great things, that our cultural arts, aesthetics, speech patterns, tradition are beautiful no matter how “ghetto”, that our diverse physical features are beautiful.

please remember that we’re a dynamic group people. don’t fall victim to the propaganda 

exquisiteblackpeople is probably one of my favorite black people appreciation blogs because they show men, women, fashion, good news, history, black folks being happy, dancing, history, humor an babies

A+ blogging right here. If you ain’t following you are truly missing out

Black Culture is popular. Black people are not.

I hate how people act like black people is new to Europe. Where do you think people came from? The sky? Naw boo they all came from Africa? Homo sapiens evolved in Africa and they spread all over the world. They nly reason we have “white” people is because you need pale sick and a small nose bridge to be better suited to cold environments. Why do you think it’s fair skinned people in China and people that look like Africans in Australasia. Because one is hot and the other is cold.

READ A FUCKING BOOK ON HUMAN EVOLUTION!

black folk so beautiful <3

so I’m excited about this book because I had a lot of curiosity about black people in ancient Greece and Rome but a it took me awhile to find something that went in depth about the subject. The MET has a good collection of people of African decent in Greek art but these are just pictures I want to know about how they were perceived in society. Most of the “Afrocentric” (aka niggas with Ankhs) written books were both poorly researched and got basic facts wrong (one book placed Aristotle at the library of Alexandria. 25 years after his death -_-). This book was written by the (former;he died) chairman of Classics department at Howard and based on the reviews of the book he presents evidence for his finds. He’s not just blowing smoke out of ass.

"Who taught you to hate the color of your skin?
Who taught you to hate the texture of your hair?
Who taught you to hate the shape of your nose and the shape of your lips?
Who taught you to hate yourself from the top of your head to the soles of your feet?
Who taught you to hate your own kind?
Who taught you to hate the race that you belong to so much so that you don’t want to be around each other?" — Malcolm X, 1962 (via rootsxsoulxcoco-skin)

"I don’t have to do nothin’ but stay black and die!" — Lean On Me (via babycakesbriauna)

I blacklisted enough shit and now the black people tag isn’t even racist anymore
