How powerful and (read: effective) would it be if Black owned brands selling in these big box stores took a stand and said, do NOT buy my stuff at XYZ location, buy directly from my website. Amazon, Target, Walmart et al, take a cut when you buy from a Black owned brand or not.

Someday you will write the book.
Most people will not read it. But someone will, and it will change something inside them.
Then they will write a book, wholly their own, but slightly indebted to your ideas.
And so on.
The chain never ends. There are echoes of you at the end of the world.

NEVER FORGET in the 90s Hollywood wanted to cast Julia Roberts as Harriet Tubman
When they brought up the fact that Harriet was black they said.. AND I QUOTE:
“It was so long ago. No one is going to know the difference.’”

Genuinely don't like when people pitch a work of art via culture war crap.
Saying 'Read this to piss off the rightwingers' or 'Buy this to make the chuds cry' etc.
That's just sad to me.
Talk about the thing's beauty and radiance without that nonsense reducing it a vehicle for some imagined 'win'

The online world has merged with people’s realities and that’s why they think influencers owe them something.

No emotion is negative. What you do with the feeling can be viewed as negative.
Ex. Anger. It’s not bad or good. It just is. It’s neutral.
Working out can be a positive behavior to release anger.
Fighting someone because of anger can be a negative behavior.
Behave wisely.
