Why are black people seen as scary or a threat to some people?

So that is my shame as a Black person this year….super evil I know….

I’m just sitting here trying to crochet a positive potato doll for my little sister.

(I did call my mom and apologize for the theft but she told me she actually bought the one I took for me so…..yeah….I still felt bad. I should've said something but I fell into the lemony minty temptation that is a good lathering soap made by the Amish peoples. I am ashamed.)

How do I write a character’s physical description without it feeling unnatural and clunky? I’m able to describe their hair and body relatively easily because my writing puts emphasis on small movements and fidgeting, but I can’t describe faces.

What did I do?!

The worst thing I’ve done this year was go over my parent’s house and take some scented soap. You see my folks go to visit the Amish people in our state to buy their goods, and they make the best soap. It’s natural, smells fabulous and is very moisturizing. You just can’t get this same quality at the stores.

I don’t see how that’s scary or evil.

Has a conversation with someone who holds opposing political views ever caused you to change your own beliefs?

If I were a dog, I’d be a corgi.

Plus, I’m actually quite adorable in real life. I am tan, short, soft and have a baby big cheeked face and fluffy hair. I’m a very cuddly looking person, strangers often come up and try to touch me, much to my dismay. I can’t imagine anyone being scared of me. I mean people have left their babies with me when I worked at the grocery store….. during my break, when that was the last thing I wanted to do. I did not want to spend my break holding stranger’s babies while they went to the restroom but I was a people pleaser back then and had a hard time saying no.
