Chris Rock’s one “joke” was rooted in misogynoir, texturism, & ableism. Degrading a Black woman, in a room full of her peers, on live TV.
The fact ya’ll don’t see that as violent is beyond me.

And tweets I’m reading from people about the pain of physical violence.
I love you. I’m praying for & committed to our collective, holistic wellness.
