What I learned when I recreated the famous ‘doll test’ that looked at how Black kids see race
Psychological trauma begins at a young age for all children, but Black Indigenous Children experience particularly negative trauma on all continents. The doll test, which is still relevant today, highlights the internalized oppression that Black Indigenous Children face. Unfortunately, many Black Indigenous Parents also struggle with this issue.
It is concerning to hear Black individuals refer to themselves as minorities and only focus on slavery in their history, when in reality, Black people have a rich history that extends beyond slavery. The civil rights movement is often a focal point for Black parents, who share stories of discrimination and oppression.
Many Black Indigenous families prioritize financial success without teaching their children the importance of self-worth. The Black on Black Love Movement aims to challenge these negative stereotypes and educate Black Indigenous families globally about their natural beauty and worth. It is crucial for us to take action and empower ourselves and our communities.

I love it when people ask my daughter if she's being a good girl for Santa because I know once I tell them that I don't teach her about Santa they're gonna do that "oh shame on you, spoilsport" peer pressure shit and ask me why (as if what I do with my kid is their business) so because they can't just accept that freedom of choice is a thing, I get to make them uncomfortable by telling them why
and here's why:
Teaching her that it's okay for someone to sneak into our home as long as they're leaving a gift for her is counterproductive when I'm also teaching her that there are bad people in the world and that absolutely nobody is allowed in our home without consent at any time.
The people in her life work hard for the money we earn and we also put a lot of love and thought into the gifts that we give her so to give all of that credit to a man who doesn't exist is not something that I choose to do.
As a black mother to a black child, I refuse to teach her that there's some white man who only gives a shit about her once a year but only if she behaves herself.
Being the best person she can be is important for her own personal growth and development and also because she can bring a lot of good to herself and those around her by choosing to do right because it is right and not because she's going to be rewarded for it.
I teach her that bad things can happen to good people and bad things can happen to children. There are many unfortunate people in this world and teaching her about Santa means teaching her that all of the less fortunate kids who can't have a hot meal or a safe place to live much less a gift to unwrap are deserving of a shitty holiday because they were bad all year.
Different people have different financial situations so when some kids talk about the expensive gifts they received, some kids will talk about getting a new coat or a much needed pair of shoes so teaching her that Santa supplies gifts means teaching her that Santa gives "better" gifts to people who are in better financial situations.
I don't say this to shit on people who teach their kids about Santa but I say this because people who do teach their kids about Santa have a way of acting like I'm a horrible parent for not being on board with the way they choose to raise their children.
if you choose that route with your kids, leave the rest of us alone.

Neil deGrasse Tyson Discusses Parenting with his Mom
youtube
If you ever need to know what it means to be a mother and a mother please watch this video. It reminds me of my own mother and father who raised us the same way that Neil's mother and father raised him and his siblings.
Black Indigenous parents are the best in the world and I am so very sad 😭 for the many Black Indigenous kids who didn't have the same type of upbringing as we did. I am very proud of my family 😁.

I really am so thankful for the life I have I don’t think I would have it any other way.
I thank God so much for my parents man. What two beautiful individuals that came together to make a life for themselves. They have done good for themselves and I hope they know that.
They have raised such good human beings. My parents are so great and I wish I could give out the kind of love and upbringing to people so they can understand me.
They make life easier and peaceful. Heavy on peaceful my parents have never put any of my siblings and I in a state where we felt we were not at peace or gave the freedom to do what we liked in this lifetime.
I want to say more and I will probably do so as time goes by🩷
