Young kids need to look up to someone that has a job and supports his family instead of having someone else support them ( nike).

Mother wears ‘Blue Lives Murder’ T-shirt in front of police officers at Afropunk: ‘Stop killing us’

The saying that a picture is worth a thousand words can be summed up in three: “Blue Lives Murder.”
That was the phrase seen on the bold statement on the T-shirt of a 24-year-old mother and activist Nyja Richardson as she attended Brooklyn’s Afropunk, the music and fashion festival that celebrates the black American punk scene in locations around the world.
Richardson strategically situated herself in front of four police officers, who unwittingly stood in the background, before snapping the photo and posting it on her Instagram page.
“The last thing I want my son to be is another hashtag, so if that means I have to wear this shirt to create the conversation or go to community civil meetings, I will do whatever is necessary,” Richardson, who has a 3-year-old boy as well as her own vegan T-shirt line, tells Yahoo Lifestyle. “I just fear that the color of his skin would trump his character, [and] to the world he would just be viewed as a violent black male.”
Richardson wore the shirt in the wake of numerous attacks by police officers on unarmed people of color, and in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement. She adds that she wanted to “stimulate conversation because we are in a society who has taken liberties against a community without accountability. To me this is quite visceral. Tensions are high in America at this time and a conversation needs to be had.” 
The “Blue Lives Murder” T-shirt retails for $30 and is made by lifestyle label America Hates Us, which seeks “to communicate social and political messages with the marginalized in mind,” co-founder and designer Tareq G. Brown tells Yahoo Lifestyle. “Many of our pieces tend to make others feel uncomfortable and though that isn’t our purpose, we’re certainly not going to tone down our messages.”

As for Richardson’s shirt, he says, “I’d like the ‘Blue Lives Murder’ tee to spark discussion. Instead of trying to combat the shirt or argue ‘not all cops,’ perhaps try to understand why a community would identify with this statement. Reach out to those communities; speak to family members that have lost someone to police violence.”

The “Blue Lives Murder” tee, $30, is available on americahates.us. The label, America Hates Us, will donate 20 percent of any purchase to one of four organizations listed on its site, including the ACLU and Planned Parenthood. (Photo: America Hates Us)

Richardson’s Instagram post has sparked more than 8,000 likes, plus both positive and negative reactions. One user wrote, “I think its sad that shirts like that have to be made in order to draw attention to what’s happening. I don’t agree with the shirt but I understand the motive. Not all cops murder blacks. There are cops who protect us.”
To this type of critic, Richardson says, “To clarify, the shirt does not state all Blue Lives Murder, but in my opinion, one blue life murdering is one too many.“
Political-statement tees are hot in the fashion world, appearing everywhere from high-fashion catwalks to festivals like Afropunk, which Richardson calls a “safe place for African-Americans to express themselves.”

Good parents allow their children to be children.

Don't allow your children to grow up too soon.


Don't expose them to bad language. Oops Rap songs took care of that.

Save the R rated movies till later

Let them dress like children NOT hookers and thugs


Get them away from ALL screens ( Tv, computers, phones etc). The internet is telling them how to feel, what they should like and dislike, what to wear, how to talk, etc.


Make sure that your child what is realistic and what isn't. Don't make them feel like failures.

Make sure they have FUN.


Sure that might mean that you will have to put down your own screens too.


Real like is NEVER going to be like the reality shows and YOU know it. Stop trying to be like them and be more like YOU.

Make sure that when your child grows up..... there are a million wonderful memories about their childhood.


*steps down off her soap box*

Hey Anne Hathaway, in here please for a moment.

White privilege? 

YOU are speaking those words from behind those large walls around your house and how many body guards guarding you? Do you clean your own house, do you do your own cooking, do you do your own laundry? Have you ever scrubbed your own toilet?

If myself, family, friends and neighbors are so freaking privileged, why the hell have we been working so many years. I have been working for almost 50 years and NEVER been without AT LEAST ONE job.

Get over yourself !!!


I'm not afraid of hard work and I am NOT asking people to support me or my family, and have never asked for a hand out.


White privilege my BUTT !


( I am going to keep bumping this to the top)
