sometimes i wonder why i find pride and prejudice (2005) the ideal romance. like they don't have some uncontrollable passion, or unhinged eros . it's about a man who wants to do right by a woman because he admires her opinion and a woman that recognizes she was wrong in her initial impression of him and that he has good in his heart by the way he treats those he loves, including her. it's shy, it's soft and gentle. and the passion lies in their longing stares, the way they unconditionally sacrifice their own values and become better people to meet in the middle, but still themselves. That is true love.

Indentured servitude is opresssion.

Indentured servitude is not chattel slavery.

The Irish were oppressed and have a history of indentured servitude.

The Irish were not bought and sold or held as property generation to generation.

Please stop confusing the two. Thanks.

"Stop scrolling and please help me spread the word, because if I've landed on your page you're most likely either a black woman or someone who cares about black women and the simple phrase I'm about to share could help save a black woman's life.

Doctors are to black women what police officers are to black men. That may seem controversial but I believe it to be true and I speak from personal experience.

If you've seen this TikTok you know that a 2016 study showed that 50% of medical students and residents thought that black people couldn't feel pain the same as white people.

And we learned from this video that because of a 1999 study, to this day, there's a black correction factor for the creatinin levels in black people's kidneys, meaning we're less likely to recieve a kidney transplant if needed.

So if you go to a doctor, feel you aren't getting proper treatment or they refuse the treatment you've requested, say to them the following:

I will need you to document on record that you are refusing the treatment (or medicine) I've requested, and the reason you are doing so."
