"As a young Black organizer who has been tokenized and spoken down to by people who say they fight for me, I have scrolled past Facebook posts dismissing Black youth who do not “vote blue no matter who,” as deprived of experience and disrespectful of our elders. People often preach, “listen to young people,” but as soon as young Black women and girls challenge the status quo, we’re shut down by people who do not want change. I want to live in an America where Black youth, especially new Black female voters, weren’t being blatantly erased and having people decide what’s best for us, while others invalidate our experiences, but an America that genuinely pushes for intersectionality." - @blaquewomanist on why she shouldn't be forced to "vote blue no matter who." 📸: Richmond Peace Education Center
"But, really what’s funny is that people still think that there will be flying cars in the future. Why not? The air force is working on one, and people still want to grow: economically, technologically. So, why not? Here’s why: That’s not me. That’s not “my generation.” That’s not what we want to see for the future. What we want to see is a world that has genuinely changed.  That’s genuinely “the future.” Because when I look to the past, at slavery. And I look back at us today, I still see my Black brothers and sisters trapped. Except instead of slavery, it’s called “jail.” Because the Black people in jail disproportionately represent the Black population in this country." @amayo__13 📸: Euro News
