And not a damn lie was told.
Hello everyone!
I am so sorry for the delay. I’ve been busy but am finally able to announce Black Midsummers Day!
This is a day that takes places this month on midwinter (aka - the winter solstice, 21st). I decided on a day, not a week (yet—the week will be in June) due to the close proximity of the event. But don’t worry—it’s an easy event.
Who is this event open to? Black people.
What is this event about?
Black Midsummers Day is an event to celebrate black people in sub and alternative genres that we are usually kept out of . Genres such as classical, goth, dark academia, vampires, fantasy, period, history, literature, etc.
How to participate:
It is simple and there are so many ways. The first way, is to post a selfie of yourself dressed in or in the aesthetics of anything mentioned above. But it’s totally fine if you don’t want to show your face! Do you write poetry, draw anything related to the genres above, make mood boards, aesthetics, etc., post that and that’s fine too. Also, do you sing anything relate above, play instruments, etc? Post that too?
Just make sure you are a.) black and b.) either @ this blog or use #blackmidsummers when you post!
This is supposed to be a fun event. As a black person myself who loves things like period drama, fantasy, alt cultures, etc., I never felt that we got to see ourselves in such areas. Especially black women and women aligned folks. That said, I want to represent us in all of your beauty.
If you aren’t black—you cannot partake but you are 100% free to share and boost this post and any posts related to it!

THIS RIGHT HERE
Thank you for reading this. I am usually not this vulnerable in public but I need all the help i can get at this point. I recently went to the hospital because I had crazy stomach pains and a very high fever, only to find out I’m 7 weeks pregnant. I am not at the right position to have a baby right now due to so many health and financial reasons. Recently GA is passing a law on abortion bans too and i am VERY VERY desperate. I have looked into funding websites and they wont pay for the whole procedure. Please please, if anyone is willing to donate whatever they have, it will mean the entire world to me. I have exhausted options, please help. I have created a crowdfund and here is the link: https://www.gofundme.com/1nmcix72pc?utm_medium=copy_link&utm_source=customer&utm_campaign=p_na+share-sheet&rcid=8482648e200948b78e401f570b1d018c
