Quote reblogged from A.La.Tru. - My ThoughtsYes, my hair IS Natural. No, that doesn’t mean I can’t STRAIGHTEN it when I want. No, that doesn’t mean I’m ‘self-hating’ & NO I’m no LESS Black. No, that doesn’t mean I have to wear a kente cloth and make a PILGRIMAGE back to ‘the motherland.’ It’s funny, for all the molds people are ‘breaking’ by going Natural they continue to BOX themselves in with all these Natural hair rules & REGULATIONS, cliques & clubs. Going Natural wasn’t a statement of BLACKNESS for me. It was a long overdue declaration of self-love I had never made & a pledge to myself to like & live in what God gave me. No apologies. No inhibitions. There are no rules.Ashley La Truly (via ashleylatruly)

“Moments like this require someone like me. Someone who will act. Who will do what no one else has the courage to do. Someone who will do the unpleasant thing. The necessary thing.”—Frank Underwood

Photoset reblogged from What a desolate place this is...
I said to my professor, “Why mourn the death of presidents, or anyone for that matter? The dead can’t hear us.” Then he asked me if I believed in Heaven, and I said no. And then he asked if I had no faith in God, I said “You have it wrong. It’s God who has no faith in us.”
Francis Underwood

Quote reblogged from el laberintoMoney is the McMansion in Sarasota that starts falling apart after ten years. Power is the old stone house that stands for centuries. I cannot respect someone who doesn’t see the difference.
