Even though Derek Chauvin is found guilty of all charges as of today, that still doesn’t change the fact that his family will never see him again. Prayers to his daughter and those that were close to him.

Hello my beautiful people🤎🤍,

If your dreams don’t scare you, they are too small.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Stop making excuses over and over again because you can’t overcome the fear of following your dreams. Do what you love no matter how big or small and pursue it, in the end you will be rewarded with success. ⁣⁣

Dear Young Black Males, I dare you to be different. I dare you to think for yourself and not be easily influenced by others. I dare you to be a leader and not a follower. I dare you to disassociate yourself from things and people that you know don’t mean you any good or have your best interest at heart. I dare you to change your bad attitude. I dare you to tame that temper of yours. I dare you to talk about what’s bothering you instead of displaying disrupted behavior. I dare you to go to school, learn all that you can, and apply yourself. I dare you to look outside of your circumstances and see yourself as a successful person. I dare you to ask questions, ask for help when you need it, and not be afraid to work hard for what you want. I dare you to live your life without excuses and find a positive way to get to where you’d like to be in life. I dare you! Don’t take the easy way out. Challenge yourself and achieve greatness! You can do it!⁣

My name is Ayanda Siphosethu Ludonga. I was born and raised in the vibrant streets of Johannesburg, South Africa on the 3rd of September 2005. I’m 15 years of age and like any child, I aspired to become a famous pop-star singer, dancer, and actress. Yet as time evolved so did I. I started taking a deep interest in philosophy, astronomy, physics, poetry, and politics. You see the world is changing and I believe that we should too. ⁣⁣

You Are Dark Skinned. Accept It. Embrace It. And Be Proud Of It.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I am not sure who needs to know this today but if you have darker skin there is nothing you should be embarrassed or ashamed about. Many young boys and girls grow up in a society that was conditioned for them to hate their darker complexion. It is very saddening to see them grow up hating themselves or not fitting in and later trying to bleach their skin. There is such a negative outlook on dark skin men and women even in the black/African communities. Western beauty ideals, including fair skin, dominate worldwide. In Nigeria, 77% of the country’s women use skin-lightening agents; in Togo, 59%. These numbers are sad but true. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
If you are dark skin I want you to know that your skin is not a badge of shame but a symbol of national greatness. ⁣⁣
