Bella B. Harris is 16 in these pictures. In the first one where he’s making the creepy face, she’s like one month into being 16. No one who reported the dating rumors (that i saw) or the rebuttal to the dating rumors addressed this. pic.twitter.com/ewk05dJuCt

as we are watching #SurvivingRKelly and everyone is talking about how so many people in the media failed to ask tough questions in the 90s, I’m reminded of this... pic.twitter.com/Ze3tQTiG8q

Dear survivors, there will be days when you don’t feel like fighting & that’s okay. You have a multitude of people worldwide with you as you stand on the shoulders of the fiercest warriors whom across centuries have fought to end sexual violence. #SurvivingRKelly #MuteRKelly pic.twitter.com/wY4CXPIUwj

If you are watching #SurvivingRKelly & you feel angry, hopeless, or driven to action, consider a donation to Chicago-based org @ALongWalkHome. They work directly with girls & young women of color to fight sexual violence, intimate partner violence &abuse.

If everyone publicly proclaiming that they would intervene actually did so, then we'd be making a real dent in rape culture. I wish people would stop lying to themselves and each other. Most people turn away when it's in your own backyard. #SurvivingRKelly

And it would help to form a plan for what to do when children tell us. I remember my grandmother saying if anything happened to tell her. And when I did, she didn't want to call the police on my father, because he's a black man and she was afraid the police would harm him. twitter.com/eveewing/statu…

Someone should buy it and turn it into a museum/educational center/memorial focused on sexual violence and abuse, the same way we have institutions for other terrible human acts like genocide and war. twitter.com/adriennewrites…

Tell the children in your life that they can tell you anything. SHOW them, through the way you act. Be a safe harbor for them so that they know you will believe them and protect them. And I don’t just mean little children.

Good example of how we as black women can internalize misogynoir. Black women are often the WORST when it comes to calling our girls fast/blaming them for attracting predatory attention. Some of it is an attempt to “protect” but that energy needs to be directed at the predators. twitter.com/latamechstin/s…

This is why the #fasttailedgirls hashtag was so important. Because every single time you treat a Black girl like she’s a grown adult you contribute to a culture that enables their abuse.

I can’t stop thinking about how much society’s inability to see Black children as children, and specifically in this case girls, is at the root of so much of this. Yes, it’s about the hero worship of charismatic men. But it’s also about our girls being robbed of childhood.
