Hey girl. I have a question. I'm about to be 21years old next month, and I just wanted to ask you what type of guys you used to be attracted to back then growing up, and what kinda guys you're really attracted to now?
I think it’s time we start to reprimand colorism as much as we do racism because if a white man had said these things he would have been fired or at least punished.
Had Waymond said these things about white women or Jewish people, he would have been fired. White men saying this about Black women wouldn't have necessarily resulted in termination.
@@TishaPisha Truth. Unlike what the other reply stated, the lack of reproach is not because Black women don't stick together or speak up enough. It's because society views abusing us as acceptable. Either way, he and other people who abuse Black woman deserve to be punished for it.
“I’ve grown, I’ve changed, that isn’t who I am anymore” sir that isn’t going to cut it when you spent years going out of your way to traumatize black women. Not sure if people are categorizing this as abuse but that’s how I see it.
There are no second chances for colourist cyber bullies like him. If he posted such clowning nonsense about people of other communities he’d receive worst punishment
They go after their preferences, get with the women they want and do that last spiteful dig at BW. Such destructive immature behaviour. Look At the outcome “Chef away”
I'm amazed at how many of us get through all of life's up and downs, drunken moments, sad moments, unhealthy and even toxic ass moments, and NEVER had a hateful rant. It's absolutely reflective of WHO you are, deep down, the kind of hate you spew in the down moments. We need to stop accepting this form of fake accountability
He was in his mid twenties when he made those comments, a fully grown adult, not a young teenager. There is no excuse for this. That is who he really is.
The fact that posts like this are STILL allowed on social media and become a point of discourse instead of outright flagged and banned for hate speech is disappointing.
omg this! I literally made a post mentioning crackers, like actual crackers & they took my shit down. but god forbid ppl holding mysognior discourse nobody bats a eye
Not enough attention to him saying *dark skinned Black woman make good PUNCHING BAGS* that promotes violence. And not enough attention to him calling *MALIA 0BAMA A H0E*
I feel it might be a few different things. Maybe people like mess? Maybe they don't really care? I don't know. What I *do* know from a technical level, is that the Terminally Online folx are fucking dense. You know the ones. They'll subtweet the trash person while tagging RUclips's official Twitter page with versions of "Umm... RUclips??? Hello???" instead of _actually_ flagging the post/video/what have you, and blocking the page/channel/person entirely. That's really the big reason why RUclips doesn't "do anything", because people are too busy navel-gazing and opining about how RUclips or Twitter "won't do anything about these terrible people" but can't be bothered with taking the time to flag/report the trash human because it's "too much work".
“cooking saved me” from hating black women? how? sir you were grown as hell. since black people are criminalized, why not be a defense attorney? not an assistant to the fucking DA. defend black mothers for free who get in legal trouble for things out of their control that come with being a struggling parent. make a net positive impact and that’s gonna take a lot. he’s harmed so many people. if he’s not actively already working for the betterment of black women then i don’t believe that he changed.
A district attorney defends the people and seeks justice for them. (If a Black woman is attacked its the DA that brings up charges. The DA defended Megan The Stallion.) It's not just a defense attorney who defends people.
A need a mini documentary on the early days of black Twitter. Seriously, why was talking so badly about black/dark skin women such a massive part of the culture?
I think that would be interesting & educational for the upcoming generation of girls and boys. I think Tee Noir & Jouelzy have great content pertaining to what you asked too.
I think Kim missed the worst one. There was 1 that said " black b**che's make for good punching bags". Now you're a DA.... hell to the new, to the naw naw naw...
No respect. Think about it... others will empower and encourage him to continue this disgusting behavior. It's being taught amongst Black males to hate - this is beyond misogyny.
Not enough attention to him saying *dark skinned Black woman make good PUNCHING BAGS* that promotes violence. And not enough attention to him calling *MALIA 0BAMA A H0E*
Demonic. And when certain You tubers say "stop birthing them" blk women are some of the first to be mad. Smh. At this point why bother with these creatures who come from you and hate you??
hes not a corporate lawyer just writing contracts or even working in private practice where people can choose whether or not to engage with him. hes a district attorney wielding the power of the state and prosecutorial discretion and they think its okay for him to be there. sick world we living in fr.
Yep Latina and Asian women too. My nail tech wear extensions because her hair is damaged from dying it so much. When it come to BW the weave, weight, attitude etc is not always the issue it is the skin complexion period. BM will date and marry non BW with those same traits and worse because they are light/not a BW.
@Ece I see black women wearing curly hair extensions and wigs. And, black women straighten their hair sometimes, so wearing straight extensions fits better for the look.
I am in my early 30s and was on the internet before most of my peers. The other day my friend mentioned not understanding some of the insecurities I have mentioned. This video reminded me that I lived a complete second life online where misogynoir was rampant.
Yep. Like someone commented earlier, there was a time online only about 8-9 years ago where regularly making unambiguous BW the butt of every joke was commonplace and acceptable.
There's a reason why the only social media I use daily is the kind that I don't have to put my face on. RUclips, reddit, and back in the day i used Tumblr, ate the only sm sites I used a lot. Myspace, facebook, instagram, Twitter, and even snapchat had me overaware of the issues social media can bring when connected to your personal life. Fuck, for the first time in 6 years someone found my reddit account and went off on me about an errant comment about having an untrained dog- a young untrained dog. I had to call the police. It was my mother and father- the bitch went snooping- Fucking nsa levels of snooping- and found one comment to start an argument over and made it a big blow out. Fuck i hate it here.
I remember, the 1st Chrissie's video I watched was about the contrast btw BM portraying Black love on screen and who they actually date. She was advocating for (ds)bw to stop building the career of colorist celebrities. She had a point: and I stopped automatically stan Black male celebrities.
This!!! They build their wealth from the support of a Black women fanbase then gallivant off to women who wouldn’t even recognize them if they weren’t famous. Smh!
Kim please organize a rally or march in Houston outside the DA office. We need to put pressure on Kim Ogg to get this man out of there. We need thousands of Black women out there to send a crystal clear message that this horrific hate from Black men or anyone else will not be tolerated.
Remember when they got that therapist fired for telling Black men to get therapy... Yea let's have that same energy with gettin him fired..too much violence from these nikkas .. and too marching for these nikkas for this to be acceptable
Not enough attention to him saying *dark skinned Black woman make good PUNCHING BAGS* that promotes violence. And not enough attention to him calling *MALIA 0BAMA A H0E*
It’s disgusting 🤢 what he posted. Hateful, immature, colourist. It doesn’t matter how long ago he spewed this nonsense on Twitter. He left it there. It’s who he really is
His worse comment about "black bitches" make good punching bags should not be ignored. A prosecutor advocating for violence period should be disbarred let alone targeting a group of women because of their skin color. He's a danger to black women pure and simple.
It's the reality many black women have to live around. It's tiring. Another thing to deal with on top of racism from other races, prejudice, & life itself.
Thank you for this video, Kim! As a long-term viewer, I always appreciate your commentary. I'm not a black woman, but I really relate to this as a Turkish woman (from Turkey, studying in Europe, not been to the US) because young Turkish men constantly shit on Turkish women, specifically our appearances and life choices. It's not just general sexism either, they will literally say 'Turkish women suck' even though they have probably never even met a non-Turkish woman, let alone date one. I feel that sexism within our own communities is often the most salient issue for us, as we are stuck with these people (unless you study abroad like me, I guess)... (I understand that this might be different for black women who face racism that I don't regularly face as a pale Turkish person, even in Europe.)
@Mel C Thank you for remembering and your kind words. Unfortunately, rampant femicide is still the case. I think an average of about 1.5 women are killed every day. Mostly by men they know, almost always current or former partners. If you ask them, the government has taken some precautions (like creating an emergency app that calls the cops and shares your location with them in case you are being abducted). But, in reality, they pulled out of the Istanbul Agreement, which was a legal guarantee of many women's rights. Feminist groups were campaigning for the Agreement to be applied fully, and instead they pulled out. It is a complete joke. I hope for a more feminist government soon.
We are sick of this ish. I don’t accept his apology. I personally have been discriminated against for being a black woman by black men in power positions over me. Professionalism meant nothing to these men in their quest to punish me for some unknown crime, and put me in my proverbial place, even upon initial meetings. I’ve even had a black male mechanic permanently break my 3 year old car to put me in my “financial place”, while I was trying to buy black and support a black business. I’ve had a black male PI and black male civil rights attorneys turn down my case because they didn’t want to fight on my behalf, yet I’ve marched and fought for their black bodies. I’ve had black men enter buildings before me and attempt to slam the doors in my face to make it clear that I was unworthy of them holding the door or elevator for me, and it has gotten really bad out here for black women in California. We have to watch our backs with people of other colors, races, and nationalities, and now for the first time in history, we have to look over our shoulders at our own men. It really sucks, and it’s exhausting to have no safe haven even in your own community, and family. They hate us…
While I'm well aware of how poorly dark skinned girls and women are treated by their own people, I am blown away by the sheer cruelty they face online! It's so feckless and unnecessary!
References to the studies reminded me of the Jack and Jill clubs, the paper bag color test and does the water bead up on your hair. We have a history of bad behavior imposed on us by the majority, that we then RAN with. A house divided cannot stand 🥺
I believe in second chances, but this was already an adult. eligible for a position of power? no, I don't think an apology for that past and ¨working on his issues¨ is enough.
The key tweet that was missed, "BW make for good punching bags". You really want someone with that mindset prosecuting you? It's same thing I thought too; if you're responding to or fighting with someone ,then we can look at it that you were fighting dirty even if it's not right but his tweets were completely unprovoked. And now he's conveniently with an Asian woman and claiming he's been cured of his hate cos he fried an egg or two? *scoffs* sure he's change 🙄🙄 the way that obumseli dude "was just young" when he made those nasty comments and ended up with a WW who ended him.
I am a light-skinned Black female senior citizen who is floored by your knowledge of self. I love everything that you said. I love it and I have subscribed.
Stay safe ladies. Men like this exist everywhere. He is one man who was exposed. But there are men like him who never got the exposure of a cooking tiktok who secretly think exactly like him
Kim Ogg is a Democrat who is up for reelection in 2024. Black women have been the most dependable voting bloc for the Democrats. Now, their numbers in Harris County might not be large enough to put a preferred candidate into office; however, their numbers probably are large enough that WITHHOLDING their vote could prevent Kim Ogg from getting back into office. So Black women could very well hold the key to whether Kim Ogg is re-elected or not; she needs to understand that.
I’m about to graduate law school and I have come across black male law students who possess similar tendencies. It’s troubling. Also, this smells of an equal protection violation. I hope anyone who may have been unfairly prosecuted by him gets justice.
Women attorneys may need to speak up for this to carry more weight. If they dismiss concerns abt his professionalism/character, perhaps yall can challenge the decision on legal basis/ risk (equal protection thing). Chile I’m no lawyer so u know what I mean. 😂
Yeah the whole “get your own stuff, but let the man lead….” message didn’t sit well at 16 and still doesn’t at 26 but at least now I’m able to understand and express why
Thank you for this! I'm working on a piece right now called "It's not a gender way if it's one sided" and I'll check out that book about women's digital spaces. Much appreciated!
I LOVE RESEARCH-KIM the most! This was soooo good. Also, as someone with a legal background, I genuinely believe that this video/your research could likely aid in tossing convictions that prosecutor was involved in.
I feel like being labeled a misandrist is the same as being labeled as a reverse racist. Both are a white myth and a not too clever conceptual tool of those who hold the most power.
I ❤❤❤ when you bring the scholarly receipts! The sociology grad in me rejoices. Also I've been seriously considering moving to the Dallas area this summer (I live in MD right now) and I know you've been there for a min. Would love to hear about your experiences there so far. I'm hoping to start over and hopefully find the community I couldn't quite find here.
Houstonian here. No. That’s a no. ‘Thanks for coming on this journey with me?’ As though black women were willing participants. I’m on this. Right now. Unacceptable. Where’s the money and the work to atone?
*"....Why not both?" and 'that' LAUGH! I screamed!!!!!!* 🤣😅😁😁😂😭😂😆😁😂😭😭🤣😅🤣😭😭😂😅😆😂😭😭😂😅😂😭😭😂😅😆😆😂🤣 *That was the best comedic timing ever!!!!* 😅😆😂😆😅😆😂😂😅😭😅😆😆😅😅😆😂😂😂
Cancel culture can be bad but this is definitely a case of when it's needed. Thanks for informing us. Women still be online defending them, don't, if they can't stand up for themselves when needed as grown men then they get what they get, I've been done.
I hate it when Men of Color pit women of color against each other. Im upset that he would compare black women to latinas and it makes feel sick bc Im a brown latina (nowhere near as lightskinned as that first latina). I call that shit out. I hope he loses his job! Shame on him!
The thing is, this man isn’t just colorist, he’s straight up racist against black women. Angela Simmons is, as far as I’ve heard, considered light skinned, but even the fact that she’s black made her worthy of denigration to him. Also interesting to me that no matter what non-black woman he eventually has children with, they will be biracially black. If he has a daughter I shudder to think of the self-hate he will impose on her, and that’s at the very least, if he hasn’t genuinely unlearned all of this by that point.
Kimberly, you are a tour de force. This was a difficult but necessary and important topic that you addressed masterfully. Waymond should think about why-with the revelation to his employer of these obviously disqualifying, hateful and biased commentaries- was he not immediately let go from his position? Perhaps because he is the useful idiot in this case? Do his words represent a position that is in alignment with the true thoughts and beliefs of his employer and he and his skin and outspoken self hate are being USED to continue to erode the black community? The layers to this tragedy are Devastating.
I also truly believe in second chances and forgiving people. However l also don't think forgiveness comes from thin air. Actions have consequences. There have to be consequences for his actions. He can't just go on working in an environment throwing the book at people we KNOW he had prejudices against. That compromises the system. He needs to face consequences and actually do PUBLIC work that proves that he has changed. He has to do the WORK. Not sit there, whine and say I've changed. Sir you're a public servant. Prove it to the Public not to your work buddies in the office.
❤ love the vocabulary , beauty and intelligence with a hint of “ I wish a ninja would”. I own a graphic design firm and print shop in Philadelphia. Since me and my staff play and design graphics all day … I’ll definitely be sending some ideas I think would be awesome .
I think something interesting is that his fiance has black friends. I did not see many women that were dark skin (she posted a recap of something for her wedding), but many were brown skin and at the very least unambiguously black. I am curious how they felt seeing this surface and what those interactions have been like?
I feel so vindicated by this episode. I was gaslit by personal friends and family when I said that at the very beginning of my engagement with social media I was being bombarded with misogynoir and the space I saw it most at the time was the natural hair movement... in the comment section of black women content by black men.

I also wish the best for all our sisters around the world who have to deal with misogyny within and without their communities.
Hope you and your family are safe from the earthquake 🙏🏾
We are sick of this ish. I don’t accept his apology. I personally have been discriminated against for being a black woman by black men in power positions over me. Professionalism meant nothing to these men in their quest to punish me for some unknown crime, and put me in my proverbial place, even upon initial meetings. I’ve even had a black male mechanic permanently break my 3 year old car to put me in my “financial place”, while I was trying to buy black and support a black business. I’ve had a black male PI and black male civil rights attorneys turn down my case because they didn’t want to fight on my behalf, yet I’ve marched and fought for their black bodies. I’ve had black men enter buildings before me and attempt to slam the doors in my face to make it clear that I was unworthy of them holding the door or elevator for me, and it has gotten really bad out here for black women in California. We have to watch our backs with people of other colors, races, and nationalities, and now for the first time in history, we have to look over our shoulders at our own men. It really sucks, and it’s exhausting to have no safe haven even in your own community, and family. They hate us…
go to the south
@@MsTolatola you mean where the subject of this live practices?
Sorry but It’s not the first time in history they’ve done this.
Sorry you are experiencing this. It truly is exhausting to be treated so poorly by our male counterparts.
The fact that they can do all those horrible things to you and you still claim them is sick.
Waymond stepped right out of a Tyler Perry movie
Would love a deep dive on ways we are regressing
It’s truly frightening
The past week proves it way too much violence against women it’s shocking!
Same!
Had his past tweets been antis*mitic I bet the DA's office would be singing a completely different tune 🙄
They probably saw those horrible tweets that he was making andhired him as a facade to do what they wanted with black women without racial criticism
While I'm well aware of how poorly dark skinned girls and women are treated by their own people, I am blown away by the sheer cruelty they face online! It's so feckless and unnecessary!
References to the studies reminded me of the Jack and Jill clubs, the paper bag color test and does the water bead up on your hair. We have a history of bad behavior imposed on us by the majority, that we then RAN with. A house divided cannot stand 🥺
I believe in second chances, but this was already an adult. eligible for a position of power? no, I don't think an apology for that past and ¨working on his issues¨ is enough.
The key tweet that was missed, "BW make for good punching bags". You really want someone with that mindset prosecuting you? It's same thing I thought too; if you're responding to or fighting with someone ,then we can look at it that you were fighting dirty even if it's not right but his tweets were completely unprovoked. And now he's conveniently with an Asian woman and claiming he's been cured of his hate cos he fried an egg or two? *scoffs* sure he's change 🙄🙄 the way that obumseli dude "was just young" when he made those nasty comments and ended up with a WW who ended him.
I am a light-skinned Black female senior citizen who is floored by your knowledge of self. I love everything that you said. I love it and I have subscribed.
I remember the first hashtag and words I ever muted were darskin vs lightskin because those tweets were everywhere
Stay safe ladies. Men like this exist everywhere. He is one man who was exposed. But there are men like him who never got the exposure of a cooking tiktok who secretly think exactly like him
😢...what the hell we do to them...nothing...they really hate us....and they so stupid to realize they momma is black
I’m screaming at his info being up there like a screensaver 😭
I wonder what spice combo cures misgynoir and colorism.
Kim Ogg is a Democrat who is up for reelection in 2024. Black women have been the most dependable voting bloc for the Democrats. Now, their numbers in Harris County might not be large enough to put a preferred candidate into office; however, their numbers probably are large enough that WITHHOLDING their vote could prevent Kim Ogg from getting back into office. So Black women could very well hold the key to whether Kim Ogg is re-elected or not; she needs to understand that.
This live started out a bit heartbreaking but in the end, felt like a sisterly virtual hug. Love everything you do Kim!!
I’m about to graduate law school and I have come across black male law students who possess similar tendencies. It’s troubling.
Also, this smells of an equal protection violation. I hope anyone who may have been unfairly prosecuted by him gets justice.
Women attorneys may need to speak up for this to carry more weight. If they dismiss concerns abt his professionalism/character, perhaps yall can challenge the decision on legal basis/ risk (equal protection thing). Chile I’m no lawyer so u know what I mean. 😂
Yeah the whole “get your own stuff, but let the man lead….” message didn’t sit well at 16 and still doesn’t at 26 but at least now I’m able to understand and express why
I truly hope that DA has that same philosophy regarding second chances with the people they prosecute 🙄🙄🙄
Him pivoting to cooking with an oxtail recipe is particularly annoying because that's BLACK WOMAN cooking!
Yess thank you for putting him on blast!!!
Thank you for this!
I'm working on a piece right now called "It's not a gender way if it's one sided" and I'll check out that book about women's digital spaces. Much appreciated!
I LOVE RESEARCH-KIM the most! This was soooo good. Also, as someone with a legal background, I genuinely believe that this video/your research could likely aid in tossing convictions that prosecutor was involved in.
I moved here a few years ago, and to my unpleasant surprise. The colorism is very strong.
Until he's done the work. Dark skin offenders must be protected from his bias.
I feel like being labeled a misandrist is the same as being labeled as a reverse racist. Both are a white myth and a not too clever conceptual tool of those who hold the most power.
I ❤❤❤ when you bring the scholarly receipts! The sociology grad in me rejoices. Also I've been seriously considering moving to the Dallas area this summer (I live in MD right now) and I know you've been there for a min. Would love to hear about your experiences there so far. I'm hoping to start over and hopefully find the community I couldn't quite find here.
Houstonian here. No. That’s a no. ‘Thanks for coming on this journey with me?’ As though black women were willing participants. I’m on this. Right now. Unacceptable. Where’s the money and the work to atone?
I love the dream fund idea. So generous and powerful
*"....Why not both?" and 'that' LAUGH! I screamed!!!!!!* 🤣😅😁😁😂😭😂😆😁😂😭😭🤣😅🤣😭😭😂😅😆😂😭😭😂😅😂😭😭😂😅😆😆😂🤣 *That was the best comedic timing ever!!!!* 😅😆😂😆😅😆😂😂😅😭😅😆😆😅😅😆😂😂😂
Kindly please sign petition on Change about him. Having him in authority could really be damaging
Thanks for all that you do I appreciate it💜✨
Cancel culture can be bad but this is definitely a case of when it's needed. Thanks for informing us. Women still be online defending them, don't, if they can't stand up for themselves when needed as grown men then they get what they get, I've been done.
The best apologies are when you don’t even mention the people or person you have hurt!
He actually resigned today. He had a whole 4 page essay on his tiktok account
I just put in to join the group me! Super excited! I've also been trying to be intentional about not being anti-social!
This man made a choice time after time to put the fact that he hates black women on his permanent record. No sympathy, hope he loses his job
this dude is 31!!!! i deadass thought he was a clean 40-somethin!!!!
Right. He looks old.
When you are ugly on the inside, it shows on the outside... for him it aged him.
I hate it when Men of Color pit women of color against each other. Im upset that he would compare black women to latinas and it makes feel sick bc Im a brown latina (nowhere near as lightskinned as that first latina). I call that shit out. I hope he loses his job! Shame on him!
But he's already done the work!!! Didn't you hear him? "Cooking saved me" 🤦🏾♀️ /s He really needs to be fired.
Oh nooo! I didn't know he was an assistant DA. This man has no business practicing law. Gross!
What’s so funny is that they both are wearing makeup and weave in this picture so he makes no sense. Lol 😂
BM act like this, but god forbid one of us marry and have children with a non-black man. All of a sudden we’re bed wenches and shit 🙄
Right lol 😂😂😂
The thing is, this man isn’t just colorist, he’s straight up racist against black women. Angela Simmons is, as far as I’ve heard, considered light skinned, but even the fact that she’s black made her worthy of denigration to him. Also interesting to me that no matter what non-black woman he eventually has children with, they will be biracially black. If he has a daughter I shudder to think of the self-hate he will impose on her, and that’s at the very least, if he hasn’t genuinely unlearned all of this by that point.
Angela Simmons isn't biracial
@@theman9048 exactly both her parents black her dad is 80's rapper RunDMC
oops my mistake. I haven’t kept up with that family and got Russel and Jospeh’s families mixed up lmao! Editing it now
How do we know that he hasn't been discriminating against dsbw when prosecting?
Kimberly, you are a tour de force. This was a difficult but necessary and important topic that you addressed masterfully. Waymond should think about why-with the revelation to his employer of these obviously disqualifying, hateful and biased commentaries- was he not immediately let go from his position? Perhaps because he is the useful idiot in this case? Do his words represent a position that is in alignment with the true thoughts and beliefs of his employer and he and his skin and outspoken self hate are being USED to continue to erode the black community? The layers to this tragedy are Devastating.
I also truly believe in second chances and forgiving people. However l also don't think forgiveness comes from thin air. Actions have consequences. There have to be consequences for his actions. He can't just go on working in an environment throwing the book at people we KNOW he had prejudices against. That compromises the system. He needs to face consequences and actually do PUBLIC work that proves that he has changed. He has to do the WORK. Not sit there, whine and say I've changed. Sir you're a public servant. Prove it to the Public not to your work buddies in the office.
So at some point he died his hair blonde and changed his Twitter Handle to “July Alsina”…
Chile.
I shared this video and credit the channel. Loved how you covered it. 💗
He is 31 I thought he was at least 48.
That's what happens when you're rotting from the inside out.
❤ love the vocabulary , beauty and intelligence with a hint of “ I wish a ninja would”.
I own a graphic design firm and print shop in Philadelphia. Since me and my staff play and design graphics all day … I’ll definitely be sending some ideas I think would be awesome .
The problem is the Harris County DA not holding him accountable . He needs to be fired
Damn he look old for 31 I thought he was about 45 or older
Kim unleashed the evil laugh🤣🤣🤣
“Cooking saved me” lmao how did cooking help you unlearn misogynoir?
I think something interesting is that his fiance has black friends. I did not see many women that were dark skin (she posted a recap of something for her wedding), but many were brown skin and at the very least unambiguously black. I am curious how they felt seeing this surface and what those interactions have been like?
The comments in his apology tweet... Chef's kiss 💋🤌🏾
“Por qué no los dos?” I am dyingg 🤣🤣
Shoutout to Ms Harriet !!!! Def watching more & I’m calling the office on his *ss too!!!!!!
Awesome video! I can’t wait to whip this out on somebody!✊🏾
I feel so vindicated by this episode. I was gaslit by personal friends and family when I said that at the very beginning of my engagement with social media I was being bombarded with misogynoir and the space I saw it most at the time was the natural hair movement... in the comment section of black women content by black men.
