brown skin girl

blackness, black, BAME and on and on (stop calling us things or making us call ourselves things), disregard/dismissal/denial/derision/ has already crept into people’s minds before I’ve even finished uttering the word/s, I refuse blackness, and BAME (aarrghhhh), I am brown, so, if I say anti-brown instead of anti-black the absurdity of this supremacism becomes all the more evident, also, brown is not in opposition to white; what colour is it in opposition to… beige… see what I mean!eradicating/abolishing anti-brown(blackness) is not about us it is about them because whilst they collude in this living horror show they are the embodiment of the very inhumanity they have us believing we embody
