Hey there, especially to those of you who are new here (I’m guessing that’s most of you). I started this site to shine a light on the many ways society falls short in the U.S. for a certain group of people. Despite my best efforts, it seems that I check all the boxes for what this country seems to find lacking. I’m Black, a woman, plus-sized, and I’ve been labeled as “angry” (guess I’m not supposed to be?). I’m single, childless, unemployed, and often labeled “aggressive.” I could go on about all the ways I’m seen as a “failure” in this country, but honestly, who has the time for that? I hope you find something in these posts that resonates with you—whether it’s a laugh, some anger, or just a genuine emotional response.
