Black Women Lives Matter

Ticia The Diva “This Is For My Ladies”

S5 Ep 88: Ladies, please come to the front of the alter, I need to have a word with you all. Lately, it has been brought to my attention that we are calling for the black men to protect black women. I hate to inform you but sis, that ain't about to happen, that's like asking Trump to wear a mask, even after he got Coronavirus. Why must we continue to call for the black man to protect us when they turn right around and shit on us calling women bitches, hoes and sluts to our face for having an opinion or for defending other women?

The black mans hatred for women continues to increase, driving a wedge between members of the same community. Are we not fighting the same struggle, to be seen as human beings, to not be killed for being black, to receive equal treatment and rights as our white counterparts? Black women will stand up for the black man, protect and nurture the black man long after they shit on us but what do we get in return? Hurt feelings and a bunch of social media post pleading to them why they need to protect us. Now I'm not saying ALL men are this way, some men have been raised to respect and honor woman, putting her on a pedestal as "Queen", that's like the game of chess, the Queen is THE most IMPORTANT piece of the game. Funny how people refer to chess as a game of life yet the 'Black Queen' is the least important in real life.

Did anybody catch that post where women were asked "what would you do if there were no men on the streets at night?" The answers were astonishing, the fear that women have for men are sick but they are suppose to protect us right? Women said they would go for a night stroll, bike ride, sit on a beach, some women had so much stuff that they would do they couldn't even name it. This is disheartening to say the very least. Men are suppose to be protectors, naturally, yet we fear them. That has to do with history and women being SO far removed to make them feel inferior, dirty and less than a man or even an animal. Women and their vaginas were once the most powerful things on this planet, they were worshipped, along comes men and religion that over threw women and her sacredness for patriarchy control, read Pussy Prayers, it details how women were once the most superior and we still are to this day but we are giving way to much power to men, like the job of "protecting us" when they don't see nothing of value to protect.

In this episode, I share the disrespect that I received from men after making a tweet that read, "I hope it's staged. Sis looks terrified and his actions screams "abusive", after the video surfaced from #SaltBae restaurant of the woman twerking and the man aggressively beating on the door to let him in. Another video, same location, different angle came out showing he wasn't even going after the woman twerking but yet another woman in the restaurant but before that, I was attacked for my opinion, the amount men that disrespected me and justified the mans behavior was sick, black men but we want them to protect us? Fuck them, not all black men but any man that feels disrespecting women or a women getting what she deserves, those are trash ass men.
