    Patriarchy and White Supremacy Is What The World Needs To Start Defunding.

    4 months ago Anti-Racism Matters, Culture, Life Wisdom, Social Justice, WritersYepper's Journeys

    Also, child sex trafficking, harvesting money and androchrome in order to stay healthy, rich and young. It’s enough, we know the truth.

    Yep, while the world is getting worse, the wealthiest males are benefitting from inequality and abusing their power over women, children, and minorities. Those who are voiceless are suffering and dying more during a world pandemic. 2020 is the most exhausting, draining and deadly year for most of us.

    I’m not saying that all men are bad, I love men and those who go above and beyond for their women, sisters, mothers, I see you. Not all fall into the “system”. However, if you are a male reading this, you also should know and be very aware of how you, in your workplace, applying to get a new apartment or planning to buy a house, applying for a new job, getting whatever you want, is readily available to you just because you are a man. Moreso, if you are a white man.

    Others get more by silently using violence and abuse towards women or their children. The fear that runs deeper than systemic racism is older than 400 years. It’s so toxic that now we are finally awake to recognize this during a world pandemic and we are experiencing a racism awakening. That sexism and patriarchy are one. That capitalism exists and is able to survive, and continue to create chaos, destruction, war and death. It’s because the main function of this entire “system” is designed by white supremacists, patriarchs and narcissistic abusers who were/are still now racist AF.

    It all started with a bunch of documentaries on Netflix that we all watched during quarantine. We educated ourselves, watched less news, practised more self-care, tried to rest (most of us can’t even afford to, but we try), we dug deeper into what’s really going on and read more books. Before quarantine, we learned about the Harvey Weinstein Trial. Epstein was finally caught and then “killed himself” before he was going to be convicted. The R.Kelly trial, documentary and finding those videos…we all have access to enough evidence for this guy to rot in jail. Or honestly, my personal opinion, Harvey, Epstein and Kelly should have their balls cut off. Some may say it’s inhumane, well, so is a grown man putting his wiener on a little child’s private parts. 13–15 years old, that’s still a child, let alone forcing them into marriage. That’s patriarchy BS, I don’t care what anybody has to say. Then, we find out that R.Kelly’s trial is still being delayed and that to this day, he still holds power over women and is still making money while he’s in jail. Oh, and he was found not guilty even though we all know he really is.

    Then, finding out all the victims from the #metoo movement, more evidence is starting to surface about Epstein Island and Maxwell’s involvement, to all the others who were also guests of these so-called “Cult party rituals”, getting children (underage girls and boys), sexually abusing them and doing all kinds of atrocities to them that we probably can’t even imagine. To the survivors who are finally coming forward, you are so brave, and just know that this was not your fault. Forcing someone to have sex, is rape. Period.

    I’m literally not in as bad a place as I thought I might be. I mean I don’t live with cockroaches anymore. That’s a win! But I’m living and learning through not having a permanent address yet. And literally, I’m on my 154th refused apartment application in the last 2 months (today I got another refusal because the landlord does not want kids in the building anymore), and I’m still being denied the opportunity to fill out other applications to at least get a chance, just like everyone else who applies. An equal right, to at least be able to fill an application for a potential place to live with my daughters.

    Some tenants let me fill up the application but they don’t even take the time to let me know that I wasn’t accepted. Others stay with the deposit money, even though you have to guess that the application was refused. They don’t believe that a single mom, woman, latina has her own business and is self-employed. They ask me to show them my personal bank account and my business account before I’m even halfway done with the application. Even on the phone, they haven’t met me yet, but just because I say “I’m a single mom, with two toddlers and I’m self-employed”, they denied me the simple act to even go see the apartment. Therefore, as a result, looking for a place to live is like trying to find a needle in a crowded gentrificated, privileged and prejudiced haystack.

    This is a systemic racism, sexism, and patriarchy cocktail male party that they forgot to teach women. But hey, ladies, sending you positive vibes and hoping you send me some too. Feminine spirit guidance and luck in finding a place to live so I can continue writing, creating more content for you all, editing podcast episodes, writing more books and poems and getting them ready to publish already! (been writing and editing any chance I get) Been working on my paintings and designs (working on my online store any chance I get, soon collaborating with other artists) and just creating and helping others on their journeys. Whether it’s with writing, content creation, design, painting, photography and brand/marketing consulting. For now, I’ll be working from my sister’s, looking for more apartments, and working on raising loving and educated daughters. Thank you all for your support, subscribing, liking, commenting, sharing our work and helping a single mom sustain my daughters’ future.

    I’ve been asked if I could mentor or coach, and the answer is: I would love to teach and make people laugh one day. So if that’s related to mentoring then count me in. However, since I’m not yet an expert at these traits (work in progress) I’ll make it a challenge of mine to work on, in the future months after my parenting book is published (announcing date soon). For now, I’ll be updating you all through here and on WritersYep.


    Either way, enough about how my life sucks because I know others have it way worse. Especially children living in vulnerable conditions and being traded, abused, sex trafficked and forced into slave labor.

    Now in Quebec, children are forced to go back to school, or youth services will be knocking on our doors if our healthy children are not going to school in the middle of a pandemic (already the city is getting ready for a second wave). Meanwhile not even private schools (which FYI half of our taxes go to), can make sure the children are safe. Can you imagine public schools? But yes, they simply don’t care about our kids. I recently did a live giving some tips and asking for other parents and teachers to reach out.

    I’ll be releasing another video blog about how I’ve been training and helping my girls get ready for what’s to come and to expect. Teaching them survival tips to stay alive going to school in the middle of a world pandemic is traumatic and they don’t have the ability, as we had a lifetime to cope with dumb stuff. Children, teens and those going to school and working at the same time, right now, are having a much harder time making it out alive, mentally, emotionally and physically than we all did 20–50 years ago. Let’s be realistic here and keep in consideration our children’s wellbeing, for once. We are the by-product of our ancestors, but we can change the pattern. It’s always been our choice. The question is, which side of history would you be on in the next decade?

    They need us all to get back to slave working regardless of the consequences and the psychological trauma that most kids, teachers and staff will endure in the next months. Nobody is talking about what kind of mental health support will be given to those faced with the fact that their teachers, friends and staff, could get the virus and then 14 days later, realize that they didn’t survive. Also, who is in charge of hiring these so-called “monitors” that we parents have to pay extra for in order for them to watch over our kids during lunch time only? The rules and plans (so vague and disregarding of children rights it’s scary) have been put out there, along with a recent open letter that reveals that 151 doctors and physicians strongly oppose sending kids to school and that online courses should be a priority.

    Back-to-school plan inadequate, Montreal doctors and scientists say in letter to Quebec

    But it is mandatory that kids stay away from each other, stay and eat their lunch at their desks the whole day like prisoners. The US right now and how they are handling school openings can give us all a very clear indication of where we will be in the number of deaths in the next few months before this year ends. This whole year has already been traumatic for most of us. Now, we are enforcing more trauma in order to get people to pay bills and value money more than their health and their families. Great fucking system and city…not really.

    On Sunday, Quebec reported 74 new COVID-19 cases, bringing the total number of infections in the province to 61,673.

    The provincial Health Department added one more death for which the date was unknown to bring that total to 5,740. The province says 54,682 people have recovered from the virus.

    Hospitalizations were down seven to 117, of which 14 remain in intensive care — a decrease of two from the previous day. Here are the stats, which you should also pay attention to (surprisingly the city that has the highest taxes in Canada, can’t be held accountable to proper data records) these stats are late and there is a lot of inconsistency…

    This is why diverse race data is also important. There is a big gap between those who can afford to work from home and those who can’t due to working in essential services. Or they are parents who have children with disabilities, people with chronic illnesses, people who live with mental illness but can’t afford not to go to work. The racial disproportion and inequality can be crystal clear if data were actually properly done and distributed to its citizens. It is us humans paying taxes right? Let’s not forget that the government works for us. We are the people and we need to use our voices. Especially now, let’s speak for those who are voiceless while we still can.

    My team and I are very grateful for and proud to support an initiative and platform designed for the people and it can be contributed to by the people. Montreal businessman, founder of Influence Orbis and really good friend, Thierry Lindor, has collaborated with the Federation of Black Canadians (FBC) and the Cote-des-Neiges Black Community association (CDNBCA) to launch Colors of Covid — diverse data matters.

    This was a response to the absence of race-based data that I’ve mentioned above that is not clear in the Quebec Covid-19 status online. This digital solution was created by Lindor’s team and it takes a few minutes to answer the questionnaire, which combined with a geo positioning algorithm, can collect valuable data information regarding the lives of individuals in Canada’s most vulnerable and marginalized communities right now. This is why I’m inviting you all (if you live in Canada) to take 2 mins of your time and do this survey: https://thecolorsofcovid.com/

    It’s just reality that the most wealthy people who are involved don’t want you to believe or see what’s really going on. It’s sad that most conspiracy theories are true but they are called “fake lies”, so people don’t feel uncomfortable or so their “fake reality bubble” doesn’t burst by the realization that we are not as free as we are all led to believe. Unless you are a millionaire and have been building wealth for yourself before this year, you are not free and unfortunately, these systems were designed that way in order for a part of the population to benefit more than another part. That’s inequality, mixed with white supremacy, racism and sexism = capitalism. Perhaps this chart can explain it better than words:

     Do you see why we need to decolonize our minds, parenting, education, fucking fight for human rights in order to move on and create economic, social and equal opportunities for all and build more unified communities (defund the police) as humans living on this planet? 

    Equality, Black Lives Matter, Diversity Data, Climate change and Basic Human Rights movement; it’s what we are fighting for this year since COVID-19 started. 

    “Anti-racism work takes more than six months of performance. It’s a daily practice. It’s a constant reflection upon the way we walk through the world and how we see ourselves and others in it.” by Elyse Cizek from No, The BLM Movement is Not a Cover-Up for Elite Child Sex Trafficking, MaybeYou’re Just Racist. (Amazing, healing and educational read highly recommend).

    Which Populations Are Most Vulnerable to the Coronavirus Pandemic?

    Women are most affected by pandemics — lessons from past outbreaks

    Most conspiracy theories are actually mostly true… Especially the ones that we will NOT believe humans are capable of. Those are the ones that we say “Well, it’s not happening here, so it’s not my problem”. Just like when we were asked to wear a mask in order to keep others and yourself safe. It’s a lot for some people to be kind, have empathy and be less of an ass. It’s just easier to blame and not look within ourselves too. Let’s remember, that white supremacy and systemic oppression are not conspiracy theories. That change can only happen by taking small actions, looking within, and finding ways to understand our own personal (internal) obligations, duties, privileges and mistakes. But more importantly, once you start checking in with your own bias and healing from past traumas (working process), you will recognize that we are all capable of evil as we are of doing good. I believe that some people have lived in their own comfortable ignorance for so long, that their privilege and power keeps them in the comfort of self-righteous individuals. And those who inherited more money, it’s just a bonus. Because let’s keep things clear. Money can be good but it also can corrupt and change a person.

    I know there is a saying that people don’t change. Well, let me tell you that’s the biggest lie that person is telling you, because people absolutely change if they didn’t work for their money or they made themselves millionaires. However, I know that most people can’t control themselves. “I can’t help myself… Here’s $20 bucks and let me touch you down there..” Or “Here is $50 for that 16 year old for one night, and here another $20 for you to keep this quiet”. Or “I have never had sexual relations with that woman”… But it turns out he did and also raped teenage girls on Epstein Island. But it’s all conspiracy theories right?

    Racism is so deeply rooted in our society, that it’s going to take us a while to dismantle and recognize our own white washing, supremacy and racism education that we were taught. I hope schools and history books are already being re-made and re-written. If not, well, let’s start a petition for that, yes? I have written about it here. It’s never too late to re-learn and adjust to the new information being provided. I know I still have a lot to work on too. Always question and do your own research. But I will suggest learning how to listen. Grateful for my daughters for this. I’m learning through homeschooling my girls, the skill of listening to understand. And that life lessons and real life education starts from home. That’s why parenting is hard. Because it is work that forces us to work from within and out. Our children show us what we often do, and don’t want to be reminded of, but we must. Kids are authentically and unapologetically themselves. They are not conditioned unless we and external outcomes affect them.

    Inequality + Privilege

    There are things I’ve been finding in my semi-homeless journey (living with my little sister until further notice, glad your reading up to this point 🙂). That a lot! Of us get and benefits plus privilege from inequality. That you get a lot of amounts of opportunities than other people don’t have just because of the color of your skin. Simple… how insane is that? Right?!

    Well, is harder when you have to explain it to your own light skin siblings, cousins, family and friends and they still don’t get what you are talking about when you explained your experiences as a brown-skin-dominican women and now single mom. 

    We are one, we have red blood and we are all born alone and die alone. So might as well try to figure shit out soon because pretty soon, we are all going to be forced to work, our children are going to be forced into prison schools and police brutality is increasing while we are all trying to survive a worldwide pandemic. Also, we are being deprived of online school. Instead we are opening schools because some parents can’t handle working and homeschooling their kids. Others cannot afford it, others are out of jobs and need to find time to work in order to pay bills and bring food to the table. In other words, have self-discipline and teach it to your kids. Or the government should use part of our tax money and create an assistance program in the meantime, an aid system for parents who can’t work from home (essential workers and doctors) and need someone to watch over the kids and make sure they do their online classes. But no, in reality most parents here in this city, are narcissistic abusers taught by their predecessors.

    Montreal mother charged with second-degree murder after six-year-old daughter stabbed “This is the 11th homicide of the year in Montreal”… 

    Therefore, slaves for the elites to keep getting richer while the poor are suffering, dying, and essential workers are getting poorer thinking about whether their life will get any better or will they advance. It’s hard. Reality and the pain is hard to deal with so we should look away and find something else to entertain our minds… Keep the distractions, narcissistic ignorance, and privilege at all costs because it’s not personal. It’s just business and money, right?

    When is it enough?

    That’s what we should ask the greediest people in the world right now. They know they are and they need you distracted and not focused on taking their money to stop hunger and poverty. To help those in need when you know and the whole world knows how much you have in your bank account… While we also know how much it costs to eradicate inequality, hunger, poverty, child sex trafficking, reduce the number of suicides by providing mental health support services during these times… nah, it’s not their problem. Meanwhile, we are the ones that make all these corporations, brands we love… we just can’t help ourselves. That’s prejudice +privilege = White supremacy + mental slavery.

    These moments right now are our history, which is being recorded and written, because it’s time to correct and unlearn BS taught by a bunch of dudes who where disgusting rapists and murders but they have money, so they also paid or wrote themselves history books and corrected what really happened in the past and with our ancestors. It’s a discovery and a journey to still dig and do what’s right. Write it how it was supposed to be and re-write the truth even if it makes others uncomfortable. We need to know the consequences of letting patriarchy, white supremacy, and secret “cults” run the world and decide the fate of people’s lives. That some humans deserved better than others and created a competition mindset so deep that we divided and degraded our own human rights for more profit and a planet running out of its resources ahead of time. Climate change is making its mark while we are also surviving a pandemic and the sad but true story of the aftermath of colonialism, white supremacy, racism and capitalism. These are dug deep, and we must take our own scissors and start digging and cutting out these beliefs embedded within us. We have to. Humans and those who are voiceless depend on it. Remember, individualism is a lie and some people benefit and profit from those lies we tell ourselves and let others believe. Equality, health, safety (community — enough of the police brutality. It’s time to defund police and invest in the people) and better education are basic human rights. Black, Indigenous, Latino, Asian, Trans, LGBTQ+, people with disabilities, Black-Brown women and childrens lives matter. They always have and always will. Stay awake and real. 

    Hope this helps, stay safe, wear your masks, be kind to your planet, to YOU and to OTHERS.

    *Remember we are still raising money for Lebanon, Beirut. The first $10,000 will go to Save the Children Lebanese Relief Fund. Here is why.

    Being Different is Not Something to Be Ashamed or Embarrassed of. If People Are Offended or Disrespect You, It’s Because Your Realness Bothers Them.

    5 months ago Anti-Racism Matters, Culture, Health & Wellness, Life Wisdom, Mental Health, Social Justice, Yeppin

    That’s a clear indication to walk away and find new people who appreciate you. 

    Originally published Medium

    Life is a journey and a constant process for growth. I came across the following quote the other day: 

    “Real growth is when you start checking & correcting yourself. Instead of blaming others, you take responsibility for your decisions!”

    Truer words have never been spoken. None of us are perfect, but we all have the potential to choose when to change toxic patterns that we know, or have been told by our loved ones (those who really matter and have been telling you multiple times of a certain behaviour you should work on.) When we are aligned with our true selves, we can recognize the bad, and take the first few steps to dismantle and grow into a better you. 

    We are all a working process so don’t rush your inner creative work, and be kind. Be grateful that you at least have people tell you when you’re being an a** or that you are wrong. It’s okay to make mistakes, because that’s how you grow. Nobody gets to personally develop without going through difficult situations. Trust me – I’ve learned this the hard way. Which is why I’m begging you to look from within and work on your inner darkness, and not blame the world or hurt the people you love because you cannot deal with your own toxic and unhealed behaviours. If you don’t have anything that you think you need to work on, then there is the possibility that you need to do some self-reflection.

    This culture and era we are living in has brought that to light too. We are all struggling, and connected. But also, we have developed more narcissistic personality disorder traits that are rooted in our genes since colonialism. However, it is being disguised by the media, news, movies, and all social media universes. You may have your own opinion of if you think that’s true or not. But again, a narcissistic is always right, and they always have ways to distort reality. Here is a little bit of information for you to take your time and educate yourself. Also, here is how it’s associated with systemic racism, environmental racism, slavery, inequality, individualism, and sexism during a world pandemic. 

    Here are 5 ways to begin to dismantle the idea of normal that you have to fit in a “society or for narcissistic individuals”, rather than just work on getting better yourself; emotionally, physically, spiritually, and most importantly right now, financially. Let’s help each other out and grow out of what “society” and this toxic culture is trying to keep us in so others that are privileged and wealthy can still benefit from our struggles and insecurities. Let’s focus on our minds, and becoming a better human for our better future selves and those who come after us. Let me know if you have more to add into the following list in the comments.

    1. Stop comparing yourself to others.
    2. Take accountability for your actions and decisions. Blaming others is a toxic waste of time and space. Also, it’s a colonized mindset.
    3. Ignore negative people, vibes, and environment. Personal growth and a healthy mindset requires separation.
    4. “It’s not personal, it’s just business “. Do you ever wonder why when you hear these words that your subconscious always gives you a brief image in your mind, or feeling in your soul of being colonized. I don’t know if my white people see that when you use or hear the phrase. But I know people of color, or those who have been marginalized, oppressed, all see it and feel that way. That’s why we are honouring our ancestors for all the bs that we’ve been through for 500 years. If this bothers you, check your privilege.
    5. Use creativity through adversity and believe in yourself no matter what.

    Remember, you are loved, you are your spouse and your best friend to yourself first.

    That’s your first commitment. Because you have to deal with yourself from the moment you wake up until you sleep. And this life is not long, and we don’t know what happens to us when we die. So make sure you are doing good on this side while you are still alive; that people love you and remember you are as a good, happy, and loving person. Not by being an a**hole who made money all his life, but his/her family hated them, had no friends and nobody showed up to their funeral. That’s rough. Nobody remembers the a**wipe who spent their life making others miserable. Nobody cares if you had a billion dollars in your bank account, or a mansion, or own an island. Nobody cares for materialistic crap you possess because those don’t matter. Lives Matter. HUMANITY RIGHTS MATTER. 

     Values, integrity, honesty, kindness, compassion, love and how you treat people is what people remember. Not what you own. So remember that next time you decide to judge, gaslight or bully people just because their realness bothers you. Next time, ask yourself why it bothers you before you tell someone “you are not normal”. Heck yeah! That’s a good thing. By being different, you are living and you are free. What’s wrong with that? When did we make it a crime for a person to be not following the crowd and not conforming with the status quo? Keep in mind that there are the who/why some benefits from us not being our authentic selves. 

    Hope this helps, stay safe, wear your masks, be kind to your planet, to YOU and to OTHERS. 

    Remember we are still raising money for Lebanon, Beirut. The first 10,000 will go to Save the Children Lebanese Relief Fund. Here is why.

    Explosion Beirut 2020

    Ways You Can Help Beirut Victims

    5 months ago #GiveBack, Sustainability Matters, WritersYep

    Also there are ways to donate that doesn’t require money.

    Originally published on Medium.

    I’m educating myself about recent events thats happening in the world right now; while still looking for a place to live, working from home, looking for clients or doing these (for now) and homeschool my girls. I can only imagine the stress, despair, isolation, confusion and loss of connection from what WE are all going through during these times.

    It’s through failing a lot, going through really painful and emotional situations that it seems we all (or some) need to get through in order to be able to survive this pandemic and awakening period. Some of us have been silent; we’ve been conditioned to stay quiet and feel ashamed for developing a mental illness during lockdown. On top of trying to survive by not getting COVID-19, we are learning how screwed up this system we live in truly is. We are all waking up and realizing how a large portion of individuals benefit a lot from inequality, mental slavery, and keeping minorities and those who are voiceless oppressed.

    A massive explosion rocked the Lebanese capital of Beirut on Tuesday at 6:07 p.m. local time leaving at least 135 dead and thousands injured. The explosion took place near Beirut’s port and central district, close to many highly-populated areas and tourist sites. Beirut’s governor, Marwan Aboud, told Jordan’s state-owned channel Al Mamlaka that at least 300,000 people were “unable to sleep in their homes,” adding that “half of Beirut’s population have homes that are unlivable for the foreseeable future — for the next two weeks.”

    It’s really sad to know that this could’ve been prevented, but it wasn’t. Either it was due to lack of proper safety & environmental assessments, or other reasons that are still very early to tell. The blast has been linked as Prime Minister Hassan Diab said that about 2,750 metric tons of ammonium nitrate, a highly explosive material, had been stored at the port for the past six years “without preventive measures.” That’s a large supply of confiscated and potentially insecure explosive material, stored in a warehouse at the city’s port, close to populated areas.

    The horrific videos of the blast were devastating and heartbreaking. I was dealing with serious depression that day and wasn’t feeling myself. As a spiritual Mom, creative, and currently without a permanent address yet, I could only imagine how hard and traumatic this situation must be for the Lebanese community. I’m not Lebanese, and lord knows, I’m trying to survive these times and also run a business; however, I felt the need to do something with what I’ve already been working on with my team, our community and clients.

    My team and I decided to create this fundraiser in order to help spread the word, raise money for these organizations, and amplified the voices of these non-profit organizations that are helping those in need right now in Beirut, Lebanon. It took some time and research, and we are still looking more into it. If you know of those who have other organizations (who are helping and are providing food, shelter and water in Beirut), Please send us an email or reach us here .

    Funds will be distributed to and why we choose these:

    Disaster Relief for Beirut Explosion and Providing Shelter For People Affected in collaboration with Baytna Baytak by Impact Lebanon -Is a non-profit organization, is a social incubator for driven Lebanese around the world. They aim to enable the Lebanese community to mobilize effectively; share knowledge, resources and expertise and make activism accessible, impactful and sustainable.

    The Lebanese Red Cross– are the main providers of ambulance services in Lebanon. They have 300 emergency medical technicians and 300+ ambulances respond to more than 140,000 emergencies and patients per year. Now, imagine their efforts double in one day during these times and after the Beirut explosion.

    Dafa Campaign fundraiser run by Nairy Anastasia Mezian — Dafa Campaign is a non-profit NGO (organization) in Lebanon that supplies the community with essential food (they also have been growing their own crops for healthy fruits and vegetables) and resources. These funds will go to essential needs: Water, Food (rice, grains, flour, bread, milk, canned food, prepared meals,etc), Home essentials (paper towels, diapers, soap, etc), Daily needs (Face masks, gloves, medicine, first aid).

    Save the Children Lebanese Relief Fund -Thousands of vulnerable children and families displaced and desperate for medical care. With COVID-19 already pushing hospitals to the breaking point, children are at risk of injury,malnutrition and worse. Which is why we have decided to contribute our first 10,000 to this organization.

    Our creative and educational content, newsletters, podcasts (coming soon) and weekly blogs will be created with the purpose to encourage others to help each other while also using creativity. Kindness is our superpower. We need to be willing to do the work and focus on ourselves, while also caring for others. It takes a lot of work and personal sacrifice to dismantle what we’ve been taught and become better humans; while also finding our purpose in this life. It’s hard work, but it can be done together. Starting with this:

    Sunday poetry on our YouTube Channels are arts, poems, quotes, design, paintings are created from our followers and community. In order to share creative inspiration before and during COVID-19; for those who are suffering from mental illnesses, financial stress, hunger, being a victim of systemic racism, being an activist for social justice, children being abused at home, writers, creatives, and educators trying to stay alive. We are all together and we contribute for causes we care about. Together, we are creating ways to use creativity for kindness and help others do the same.

    We will update you as soon as we can on the exact amounts that will be donated to each of these organizations. We will also monitor the situation and hope to rely on your generosity and kindness to help those in need and affected by the explosion in Beirut.

    Thank you for your support!

    P.s: ways to donate to Lebanon without money arab.org EVERY CLICK IS A DONATION (being doing this everyday before working) and Watch to donate “To Beirut” (Lebanon) play the video all the way through. We all can do our part. Let’s care more and do our best.

    Love and Light,

    AO.

This is huge! As a Dominican environmentalists @angiem_ao and someone who grew up around this area. Seen this 😭brought tears of joy! Also swipe left, 🤗 I’m sure this is a collective joy and a sign of hope for those who live around this river . 

The Ozama River is heavily polluted. It is constantly affected by the slums on its shores and the factories that dump their waste into it. It is one of the main causes of pollution on the coastline of Santo Domingo. One of the many reason I’ve decided to be an #enviromentalscientist 

It’s also one of the areas most affected right now with COVID-19 😔

So grateful @boyanslat and @theoceancleanup 🌻 for the work you do in keeping our 🌎 oceans clean and making sure that areas of the most marginalized communities living near rivers or the beach have less pollution = cleaner, educate locals which creates more sustainable conscious communities for the future generations. ✊🏾#betheexampleyouwanttosee 🌻

p.s: suggestions Samana is another city where 🐋 go to give birth every year. This area is heavily polluted too last time I was there. It will help to clean up so those mamas and their babies are healthy and less plastic in their stomachs 🙏🏽🐋💚

    #simplereminders 🌎 This “has no value “unde #simplereminders 🌎 This “has no value “under capitalism also goes to: 

 ❣️social and environmental Justice, indigenous rights, BLM, Trans, Latinos, LGBTQ+, Muslim, Asians, Jews, Arabic people, people living with disabilities, homeless, people dealing with mental illnesses, children, marginalized communities, parents with children w disabilities, women of color, BIPOC communities living in marginalized places. Essential workers, teachers, people delivering, groceries clerks, people living in apartments in horrible conditions but their lives are considered “non-essential “ by the system therefore cannot afford to move, nurses who work other jobs plus saving life’s in hospitals... any more to add to these list? 🤔

THESE ARE REAL PEOPLE. WITH REAL. STORIES. 

#environmentalracism exist because of capitalism and white supremacy.  OUR SUFFERING, OPPRESSION AND TRAUMAS DURING A WORLD PANDEMIC ARE NOT A CONSPIRACY. 😒

That’s why we need to work on abolition. Also, #abolishthepolice and #fundthecommunity ✊🏾

People who don’t have jobs and can’t afford housing and mental health support should be able to get these for free. What do you think 💭? 

We need to STOP shaming people who are suffering right now instead of helping any way you can. 

There are literally people comfortable in their home with everything paid for them. Shaming accounts who are voicing THE TRUTH and commenting “they deserve what they get” 🤬

White privilege also is rooted from capitalism and instead of using your privilege for good. You are being violent and creating more #inequality while most of us are trying to break this mental insanity created by greedy colonizers which most of these descended people are highly benefiting from. 

We need to do better people. Because our lives 🌎 depends on it. 

Stay safe and conscious 💚🌻

And save so you can send it to someone with privilege who says “they deserve it “ or “it is their fault” or the usual I hear everyone say to me when I speak about this. “You’re too much”, “stop caring so much” 🙄 “that’s not your problem. Why do you drain your energy on things that are not your concern anymore?” “You’re not homeless anymore are you?” 

Yeah, that’s still a racial trauma I’m still working on healing and working really hard so I don’t end up in the streets again. 🙏🏽grateful for my family, friends and you 🌹 who are helping me so I can continue this work.

However, there are many people who don’t have family or friends to help them. Imagine being homeless through this winter and dealing with #policebrutality everyday. 

Yep, let that sink in. 

Very soon through the new website 💚🙏🏽 going to show you why it matters to care and help others. 🌻

We still are NOT going to just stay silent because it makes people uncomfortable 😒 Nah, they matter as much as all of us and f$&^ billionaires and toxic patriarchy leaders. 

Watch out for those who gaslight, shame and blame yours or other BIPOC traumatic experiences. They are highly privileged, greedy people who benefit a lot from inequality and capitalism. 🤮

    Most of us are still processing and healing racial Most of us are still processing and healing racial trauma and the shock of seen white supremacy and racism at work on January 6,2020 in the US. 

However, just because is uncomfortable and seen the truth plus the reality that POC are dealing on a daily basis. Now, at night during lockdown “curfew” in Montreal, Quebec 🤦🏽‍♀️ 
we must speak about important matters. We don’t want to deal with bigger problems down the line. 

Just like MLK 🖤✊🏾once said: “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly."

RP @climatestrikecanada ✊🏾💚
 “from @wearenorth99 if we’re ever going to have climate justice, we must acknowledge the racist origins of the proud boys in so called “Canada” and how they continue to contribute to white supremacy across this land.” 

This is something we are already experiencing in Quebec, Montreal with our white supremacist, racist and white privileged leaders. Their actions and decisions are really detrimental and silent violence that only people who are in the front line, essential workers, teachers, children, BIPOC communities, Women of color, Parents, Trans, LGBTQ+, homeless people and elderly are suffering the most. I would not be surprised these leaders of this city are very supportive of these groups. Stay conscious and pay attention. 🌻

We must not stay silent #canadians don’t think that what happen in the US cannot happen here. And they’re counting on your silence and complicit so they can continue their toxic behaviours. It has to end and it ends with all of us, not just some of us.
