We’re Not Perfect, Angry, or Have Infinite Strength — We’re Just Human, Black Women
We need everyone to understand this:
We are human — just like you
We deserve respect, protection, and compassion — just like you
We have good and bad days — just like you
We have brilliant thoughts and endless potential — just like you
We have bills and responsibilities — just like you
We have feelings and want support — just like you
We are independent but would appreciate some help and gratitude — just like you
We get sick and tired and have moments of weakness — just like you
We suffer loss and deserve sympathy, space, and grace to go through all the stages of grief — in our own time — at our own pace -just like you
We deserve, have the capacity, want, and can give love — just like you
We need rest — just like you
