Meet Carolina aka Miss Rizos. She is a Dominicana and is leading the natural hair movement in the Dominican Republic. Miss Rizos founded www.missrizos.com after going natural a year ago after 15 years of ‘alisado’ or relaxers. This is huge especially in DR. When I visited, I saw about 3 women who wore their hair without a relaxer. My host said people immediately asked if I were from Brazil or Curacao because I could not be from DR because I wore my hair curly. Miss ‘Curls’ is here to offer her support, advice, tips and amazing personality to those seeking the natural way. Visit La Tiendita de Lolita. Follow her on twitter for updates!

Do you wear your hair ‘natural’?

Dear Fellow White People,

I’ve noticed that when PoC (particularly the many wonderful WoC here on Tumblr) talk about their lived experiences and things happening to them and their communities, especially things inflicted by white people, white patriarchy, or general…

I wonder if they’re going to talk about how he was a racists, a sexual cross dressing pervert, & a 33rd degree Freemason. That’ll be awesome.

anti-propaganda:

‘While the political left and an army of Hollywood trendies are clamoring for a U.S. Military invasion of Uganda to capture Joseph Kony, a man who has not even been in the country for six years, Ugandan authorities, backed by the World Bank and British carbon trading companies, are slaughtering Ugandan villagers and stealing their land in a brutal new form of neo-colonialism that has gone largely unnoticed.

Following the release of Kony 2012, a film made by a shadowy charity with links to USAID, the Tweetosphere exploded with a deluge of leftist politicos and clueless celebrities jumping on the bandwagon to call for Barack Obama to launch yet another act of “humanitarian” bloodletting to go after Kony, leader the of Lord’s Resistance Army (LRC).

In their haste to appear trendy and in vogue with a viral trend that was all over the social networks like a bad rash within the space of 24 hours, those advocating an increased military intervention on top of the 100 US troops already sent into Uganda last year, most notably habitual “humanitarian” warmonger Angelina Jolie, didn’t concern themselves with the facts.

The propaganda campaign that has put Joseph Kony on a par with Osama Bin Laden and Hitler is a crude hoax to legitimize the US military-industrial complex’s agenda to re-colonize Africa under Africom.’
