@jadelotusflower

With all the Power Rangers nostalgia going around let’s take a minute to remember Thuy Trang, the beautiful actress who we all know as Trini the original yellow ranger, and unfortunately lost her life at 27 years old in a car accident in 2001. Rest in peace 💖

spread the word

Colorism is taught. Fathers talking about their desires for lightskinned women. Mothers telling their kids they’re too dark. Aunties telling you to not play outside because you’ll get (too) dark. It is taught.

This is hella important!

Chuck Berry

Rock n Roll was originally Black music.

thank you

Yes, him and little Richard never get their due smh

except…chuck berry didn’t invent rock n roll…

Sister Rosetta Tharpe predates both chuck berry and little richard by quite a few years

Two of Tharpe’s hit songs were released in like 1944-45 when Chuck Berry was a) incarcerated and b) still a high school student, Tharpe basically discovered Little Richard, and she’s referred to as the godmother of rock n roll

lol just

throwin that out there

^^^EXACTLY

but Sister Rosetta was a woman and queer… so Black men will totally overlook her.

rock music was created by a black bisexual woman

Sister Rosetta new idol

Sister Rosetta Rocked the world

Spread the truth and dead the lies

<3 KICK ASS BLACK BISEXUAL MOTHER OF ROCK AND ROLL <3

I DID NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS WOMAN! MUSIC NERDS - EDUCATE ME NOW!

I’m almost positive this is the same woman who actually sang “You Ain’t Nothin But A Hound Dog” first before Elvis stole it…

And her version was BETTER

WAIT! WHAT? He didn’t sing that first? I need air and music. Someone tell me more.

Big Mama Thornton recorded Hound Dog in 1952.  She is the first.

See this just makes that song actually make sense to me for the first time so you know, hat-tip for that, too, you have relieved my endless puzzlement I’ve had since I was a small child. 

Wonderful documentary on her life & legacy in rock n roll

Today, March 20th is her birthday so can we just take the time to list some of her amazing accomplishments

- she was one of the very first great gospel artists who crossed over into r&b, rock n roll, and gained mainstream success

- she frequently performed with a racially integrated band

- guitar playing was seen as a “man’s” skill, but that didn’t stop her from beating out many guys in guitar battles at the Apollo

- she may have been one of the first successful black artists to even have a tour bus with her name on it

- this woman literally turned her wedding day into a rock concert for over 20,000 fans

- openly bisexual in her private life

- she sang with little richard in what would be his first public performance at her concert

- she held a successful tour in the UK during the early 1960′s well before the “british invasion” of rock n roll

hidden figures vol. 2

🗣 Their names are Ritu Karidhal, Anuradha TK, Nandini Harinath 🗣

I’m sorry I can’t seem to find the names of other women in the picture but these 3 women were the main ones involved in the project 💖

look how happy they are!

On some real shit, I do not fuck with people who ride those boat things at the carnival. People who get on those do not give a fuck about life, they don’t care about you, ya mama or your kids. They literally have nothing to lose. You don’t care about life so there’s no need for me to fight you because you’re not going to give a damn about my face. 

THIS JOINT!!!!

BITCHHHHHHH. I got on this shit when I was 12. Wasn’t no bar, no protection, nothing in that shit. I didn’t realize until it was too late. You couldn’t pay me to ever get on this shit ever again in my life. We were in Landover, this shit almost smooth flipped my ass to Baltimore. No. Never again. 

12? I got on this bitch when I was 21 and had my head in my ex’s shoulder the ENTIRE time. Screaming like a bih too. Nope. Never again. I was praying to the gravity gods the entire time.

?????? All it does is swing back and forth???? I don’t understand the concern??????

centrifugal force keeps you in your seat.

Centrifugal force isn’t keeping me from crying tho

why is this so funny
