Came out to my peeps on FB and Insta, AND I'm not calling my homophobic father on Father's Day 🙌🏽 y'all I'm on a roll
#about me#blu babbles#i was like 'listen im going to a large blm march tomorrow so if i die im not being remembered as a straight bitch ok'#that was some gallows humor :) lol#i think I'll be good. cops here love to say theyre woke bc they're mainly latino#theyre wrong bc black ppl in my city still only account for 6.9% of our population of 2 million#and we make up at least half of my county's prison#but they like to keep up appearances. read and article recently about how they were handling covid in the jails#theyre using it as a new tactic to punish inmates and deprive them of food/water and calling it 'quarantine'#according to an interviewed inmate. the chiefs account says theyre thriving. and he let about 16 people go to reduce crowding#idk about you but im bound to believe that the chief........is lying#this citu is VERY anti-black lol. people treat me so different when they see me with my dad or my brothers#who arent latino passing at all#and when i dont relax my hair suddenly i get followed in stores#and the fetishization and predation from older men gets more intense#which is. why ive relaxed my hair again.#so its like 50/50. campus police grabbed and restrained me tho for skipping class and they wouldnt let me go#i wasnt even skipping class is the funniest part.#anyway long story short i MAY get detained. it also depends on whether im percieved as latina or black because i get mixed responses#several of my friends say i dont look latina at all. the other half say i do. strangers specifically think im puerto rican#lots of 'hablas español verdad?' and when im like 'sólo un poquito; lo siento' theyre like#'ur parents dont teach you spanish??'#if they speak much english. if not i have to stumble my way through an explanation in broken spanish and I feel dumb#but in the end they always ask 'no eres puertorriqueña?'#and then i gotta explain my mom is white and my dads black and im always wondering like wait.......have u never met a biracial person before#my old best friends uncles always used to roast me for not knowing Spanish.....like they forgot every time that im not latina........#im getting really off topic. i don't even remember what im posting.#its just a super weird existence. esp since ive been bullied out of many black friend groups#and my dads family is very culty and yknow. homophobic.#so i dont see black relatives or friends often. anyway i need to keep a diary to write all this shit
