After a few weeks off for reflection and inspiration, I am back!
Joining me is my Badass cousin Perlesta (I call her Lita) and we are talking about maneuvering life and the Black Lives Matter Movement as biracial women. We are NOT the spokeswomen for all things biracial (do I even need to say that?) but I feel our shared experiences have merit and maybe others have felt the same way.
I kinda quoted Audre Lorde, but here's the quote in its glorious entirety:
"Black and Third World people are expected to educate white people as to our humanity. Women are expected to educate men. Lesbians and gay men are expected to educate the heterosexual world. The oppressors maintain their position and evade their responsibility for their own actions. There is a constant drain of energy which might be better used in redefining ourselves and devising realistic scenarios for altering the present and constructing the future." ~ Audre Lorde
