Saving for later reading.
Like when my child goes to swim practice this evening. 😊
So I've read this and as a self-described feminist, you may be surprised to hear that I'm siding with the guy on this. I'm annoyed by her.

What can black women do today?

1st - Stop muling. Stop the unnecessary, avoidable struggle where we have complete control.

We didn't start the war, but we're not playing offense.

We continue to be complicit in our own devaluation by supporting those who devalue us
#NotYourMule
Don't care how this comes off- you're going to have to deal

As a 41 yr old married black woman who has maintained her figure after childbirth, excellent health, doesn't mule, unstressed & unbothered, businesswoman, who has full time autonomy & building wealth?

I promote US.
I am surrounded by educated, upper middle class and wealthy, black, white, Asian and interracial couples

And I don't carry any baggage like a mule.

EVERYBODY knows that my dark skin and being a black woman is not impacting MY quality of life negatively.

And if you've been following my Twitter for years you know I have so many mixed feelings about this topic.

On one hand, it is clear that black *descendants* are trending to be America's "bottom". No, we're not there quite yet because Latinx are slightly behind, but catching fast
Notice my emphasis on black *descendants*, not first generation immigrants from Africa or the Caribbean.

Being a black *descendant* will be associated with being the "bottom", financially, educational attainment, dual income households for upper middle class #UPRMC presence.

I'm not sure why this is shocking some people.

Many of these #GenZ children are younger than popular social media platforms.

Personally, I love the idea of being able to access which programs other kids are involved.

As a parent of an elementary school-aged child, I know from personal experience how much is spread by word of mouth.

These are the new "rites of passage" in the digital age.

I suggest that black parents, especially, stay up-to-date and expose your child to as much as possible.
Too often, our children are late to the game, late to get the memo and then are made to feel inadequate or unprepared because of it.

It carries on through college.

This is not an opinion, btw.
