#black lives have value

LIVE

So I just lost a friend.

They’re not dead, but they are to me.

They’re an older white woman, a family friend for years who was a bit like an aunty to me.

But, amongst all the covid panic and current world chaos, she shared and posted some aweful stuff and I realised she was NOT who I thought she was.

Racist and homophobic post came to light and I’m honestly crushed.

I’m lucky, as far as i know my family aren’t bigots, as by choice my friends definitely aren’t either.

But a friend who was made family has betrayed me.

Unknowingly, but the damage is still there.

Being Bi and (a decent fucking human) seeing racist and homophobic posts like that was a huge slap in the face

I might be a closeted bisexual (aside from close friends) but bigotry is bigotry.

I’m fucking mad.

This is exceptional.

I couldn’t care less about what those of ZERO melanin content are saying in my comment section. It will always be BLACK LIVES MATTER until my black life is valued just as much as my white counterparts. All lives cannot matter until BLACK LIVES MATTER. All lives can not matter until police officers and white men are held accountable for murdering unarmed black people and people of color! All lives can not matter until black people can walk into a hospital and receive the same adequate healthcare as white people. All lives can not matter when you’re shot in the street for trying to deesacalate your AUTISTIC patient. All lives can not matter when a black man can be jogging in his neighborhood but he somehow looks “suspicious” so two white men are allowed to get away with murder UNTIL video surfaced and sent social media into an uproar. All lives can not matter until the police officers that murdered Breonna Taylor are charged for murdering her in her own home on a no knock warrant for someone that they already had in custody. All lives can not matter until the police that murdered Elijah McClain and then JOKED about it on camera are charged for killing an unarmed black man because of a ski mask ALTHOUGH he had a health condition that caused him to always be cold. ALL LIVES CAN NOT MATTER UNTIL WE DON’T HAVE TO EXPLAIN OUR REASONINGS FOR WEARING HOODIES, SKI MASK, JOGGING, WORKING, SLEEPING, and PLAYING. ALL LIVES CAN NOT MATTER when you have a grown black man crying out for his deceased mother because he can not breath due to an ILLEGAL chokehold by a police officer who smugly looks into the camera with no remorse AFTER a store owner FALSELY accused him of using a counterfeit $20 bill. ALL LIVES CAN NOT MATTER UNTIL BLACK LIVES MATTER!

BLACK LIVES MATTER isn’t just a chant, this shit is life or death. MY LIFE DEPENDS ON A MF’ER SEEING MY HUMANITY AND NOT MY SKIN COLOR AND DECIDING NOT TO END IT. So, yes, BLACK LIVES MATTER♥️✊ because no one is free until EVERYONE is FREE!

Hello Wizdomettes,

It’s been a while but I need your help! After 18 years I am being considered for a kidney transplant at John Hopkins, however since I live in another state I need to raise money to travel back and forth, parking, housing, and food before, during, and after transplant. Any thing counts and if you can’t donate please reblog or consider becoming a living donor.

Thanks in advance☺️

Consider donating, my LIFE depends on it!

I NEED HELP! I’m honestly a go-getter so begging makes me feeling like I’m bumming. However, I can’t do this without you guys. I want to be around 30 years from now still nursing children back to health, but I can’t do it without YALL! Any helps, share, donate, consider becoming a living donor!


Thanks in advance Wizdomettes

this feels like not even a drop in an ocean but

im going to be offering pay what you wish tarot and oracle readings in order to add to my personal donations to protest and bailout funds

my following isn’t large, and i’m a new reader, but this is a small thing i can do to contribute so if youd like a reading, just donate any amount to the Ko-Fi ive set up, https://ko-fi.com/nosilencestandup and send me an ask or DM regarding what kind of reading you would like

Note: I do not read for questions that would be better answered by a professional.(Legal, medical, financial, etc.) Nor do I accept 3rd party questions. I reserve the right to deny any question.(But will absolutely work to find a question i am comfortable reading about for you.)

If any larger blogs see this and would be able to boost I’d appreciate it greatly!

Sorry guys, not as much witchy related today, but civil rights related. All of the people talking in this post are from our community. If you know me, they really go hand in hand. Spread this post far and wide, and if you live in Minneapolis get pictures of what’s going on.


This is from a friend who lives in Minneapolis, to me, at 5am this morning in a discord server we’re part of. The first post is from a Minneapolis resident, the second is my reply and then another Minneapolis resident replying to me. The KKK is actively marching around Minneapolis wearing the whole get up and planting explosives and gasoline, and the news IS NOT COVERING THIS. WHY? I’ve made this post public, share it, screenshot it, spread the word since the news won’t cover it.

26-year-oldJamarion Robinson’s grandmother Beverly Nixon said her grandson was bipolar and schizophrenic. Still got shot 76 (!!!) times. Would a white person get the same treatment?

The witness said he saw more than a dozen patrol cars at the complex where US Marshals killed Robinson on August 5, 2016. Why were there no behavioral specialist? Surely one of them would know how to interact with a bipolar schizophrenic better than the police.

I’m absolutely disgusted.

Here’sJamarion’s mother’s GoFundMe in case anyone is willing to help.

#JusticeForJamarion   #BlackLivesMatter

Oh god ..

this is how much they’ve raised as of June 26th, 2020.

$48,589 out of $100,000 raised as of September 28th, 2020

It’s at 48k as of October 11, 2020

Black Lives Matter.

They always have. Always will. This should not be a debate.

If you disagree, please unfollow me.

I would like to spend the day featuring only the art of strong black women, whose artwork speaks louder in the light of all this chaos. First up today is Mina.
