Thelma, Darlin', Keep confessing -- no SCREAMING -- your truth -- because that shit is definitely real!!

Most poignant for me in this essay is the part highlighted above. You hit the nail on the fuck*n head with that one!! Like the Black community in which I grew up, my village would say, "Where the ha-a-yell is your damn Mamma at??!! "

This post was wonderful, Thelma -- and as you stated, "There are many white people hurting and just as broke as the rest of us. But their white skin remains a currency that is not matched by any other in this country."

Sucks for them, continually. Soon as they figure the f*ck out (if they ever do), being white only carries currency -- if they're rich, they might come to clarity (no hopes of that happening in my lifetime).
