“You Don’t Know What You Don’t Know”
“I could see books in front of me. I had read them secretly, but this time, in this fever dream, I was able to read without fear of being discovered. I had wondered every time I sneaked in there what white people would do to a slave who had learned how to read. What would they do to a slave who knew what a hypotenuse was, what irony meant, how retribution was spelled?”

PSA: Always Be Critically Thinking
Critical thinking is essential in the battle against ignorance and stupidity. Question everything, do you own research with proper sources, shift perspectives, ask what the objective of the source is, find patterns, pay attention to social circles, always read books and exercise your mind (read Proof: The Rothschilds Rewrote The Bible). Otherwise you’ll find yourself unnecessarily enslaved to depraved imbeciles, dumber than you, like the current elites are endeavoring to do now. Artist: Tyler_Spangler

I Don’t Give A Shit Harder
My purpose as a Divine is to regulate. Period. I have a handful of loyalties, giving me the liberation to deal with people properly. You will reap what you sow, multiplied. Please don’t confuse me. I’m the scary one, possessing both dark and light, decider and dealer of your fates, with copious domains. If I tell you I’m going to kill you, send you to hell, that’s precisely what I’ll do, in divine time. As I’ve proven repeatedly. Taking my kindness for weakness is one of the biggest mistakes you’ll ever make, Kali & Shiva. Via: Vintage Shindig

“The Big Dance”
“I didn’t know there were so many Spanish people around here,’ he mumbled.
Mario smiled. ‘To you, they’re Spanish. To me, they’re Puerto Rican, Dominican, Panamanian, Cuban, Ecuadorian, Mexican, Afrocano, Afro-Cubano. A lot of different things. A lot of different sounds mixed together. That’s America, mijo.”

Hispanic Heritage Month 2025
It’s easy to forget Hispanic Heritage month, because it’s two weeks at the end of September and the beginning of October. Mission accomplished white supremacists. The celebration and acknowledgement of Hispanic culture is from September 15th- October 15th every year, for those in need of a reminder. This is a grim one due to all the deportations. American citizens aren’t exempt, they’re being profiled and detained simply going about their day. Instilling fear in the community overall.
There’s a lot to be learned from this. Hispanic people who believe they are white adjacent truly see what little value they hold in the eyes of the oppressor. When you start speaking Spanish, they immediately categorize you as a the help and a threat. Being anti-black, when many of you have African roots isn’t wise. Revere the ancestors or they’ll turn on you. Also Western Beef needs to pay what they owe me, or else. From my Goddess fingers to your eyes.
This is a necessary lesson. Kissing the ass of hateful whites doesn’t make them like you, Kali & Shiva. Artist: Gabriel Sanchez
Black Men Wearing Flower Crowns
Seeing black men depicted with flower crowns is important and multivalent. For one, they’re perpetuated as aggressive criminals. Simply wearing a hoodie, or retrieving their phones from a pocket is enough for law enforcement to feel threatened, pull a gun and take their lives.
Piggybacking off my initial point, they are dehumanized due to stereotypes of criminality. As if they don’t feel, bleed, experience heartbreak, have aspirations that are curtailed by systemic racism. Mind you, we were imported here and enslaved, it’s the white man who should elicit such fear. Having spread their fallacy of supremacy globally, oppressing everyone, taking what isn’t theirs through genocide, murder, rape.
Finally, it combats toxic masculinity. They’re often pigeonholed into hypermasculine boxes and aren’t given room to breathe, to exist as a unique, singular being. This kind of representation matters, allowing them to be soft. Everyone deserves such grace. To cry instead of bottle up feelings by being told to man up. Resulting in uncontrolled rage when conditions get overwhelming. Which painting is your favorite? Why? Artist: Moses Zibor
