Black Code

Racial Allies

Why every time Black people want to do something for themselves and improve their situation communally, someone outside the race has to attack it and call it racist? But yet they want to be the first to throw “Black on Black” crime in your face.

Listen, it is not racist to want to improve the situations and standards of whatever group you belong; whether you’re Black, Italian, Asian, Purple, Martian etc. It is only racist or discriminatory if your sole mission is to exclude a group outside your own. 

Let Black people do what they need to do at this time to make sure they have equal education, economic equality, and social equality. As human beings we should support ANY group that is actively working toward improvement. 

We should all be allies to each other in the quest for self love, self reliance, and self preservation.

So for 21 days now I have been going to the gym at least 3 times a week and not eating any complex carbs like bread, pasta, or rice. (All my favorite things). I thought that I would be super skinny by now, but I have seen minimal progress. The progress that I have seen has been with how I feel. I feel lighter on my feet, more energetic and I can last longer at the gym. I'm going to keep at it because I finally noticed a difference this week, so I guess it won't be a quick fix, I have to get in the mind frame that this is a long term thing. Meanwhile I'm going to enjoy it. Exercising does make me feel good. I need to get some carbs back in my life though lol. I set a deadline to go the entire month of July without carbs and then continue on a low carb diet. Lets see if I can stick to my guns this time.

Natural Hairstyle #1

I am currently trying some new products on my hair. I am trying out an organic shampoo and conditioner from Nature's Gate on my hair. I used it Friday, I'm unable to tell any major differences yet. My hair has become thicker and the curl pattern more defined. 

I also have been trying out different hairstyles that others with natural hair can recreate. This is one I did yesterday and it was easy to do and I did the twists and braids type big so they can be manageable. 

The Corkscrew

I braided my hair at the roots so it can stay then twisted the rest. I also did my bangs if I want I can undo them and have the bangs like a curly twist out. I cornrowed (still learning) the front portion and twisted the back. 

God.

God: I don't claim to know who it is or what it is, I just know it is.
