“A Light of Love” by Shofi Ahmed
‘It’s far
far beyond
I can ever reach.
But the sun is shining
up in the sky.
How can I ever say
it’s mine.
Hand on heart
but how can I deny
Indeed there is one.
Even far from so far
shows me a light.’
I’d like to introduce you to Flavia, my sourdough starter. Today she made her very first loaf of bread!
Me, when I be protecting the pure, cute, adorable and good:
Any bad vibes? And you gotta go.. No nightmares, and when it comes to love? I be soft, gentle and slow 😉
(Don’t break my heart, it be fragile lol)

The Princess and the Frog: is released in 2009
me: omg yay it’s Disney’s first black princess!!!
me [after watching the movie]: okay she gets turned into a frog for the whole movie but that’s okay I guess, there’s still some rep???
Soul trailer: is released
me [during the first few minutes of the trailer]: omg wait this actually looks really good. It’s about a black musician and the style is so—
Soul trailer: so… the guy dies
me: wait no
Soul trailer: oh yeah he’s also not black anymore since he’s dead he’s a blue booger now whoops!
me [disappointed]: this has happened before
ON A SERIOUS NOTE:
You CANNOT represent a race correctly by turning them into something that’s not human. They literally aren’t human anymore.
Representing a race is so much more than just making a character a certain race. By taking away the visual aspect of diversity, you take away the diversity entirely.
Because let’s be honest, a frog is a frog. And a frog isn’t representation and neither is a blue booger.
