I really hate that photo of Chief Spotted Elk (commonly known as “Bigfoot” but pls don’t call him that bc it’s not his name) lying dead on the snow at Wounded Knee. Unfortunately, that’s the only one people ever seem to use of him, so when I did a history training on those events I went looking for a different one, and:
Look at the size of those hoop earrings. Look at that choker. Look at the horse fetish, and the intricate plant pattern on his chest below it. Look at those braid wraps.
Spotted Elk had so much style. I never want to see that photo of him in the snow again, knowing this is who he actually was.
Hufflepuff: I just wanted to fall in love...
Ravenclaw: Don't. It's very expensive.
Slytherin, with a golden necklace and a diamond bracelet: I have no idea what you are talking about.
that’s enough emotions for a whole year. ciao

I’m sorry if my writing sucks. This is my first story and English is not my first language. I also want to add a small trigger warning for depression, self-harm, violence and abusive relationships.||
Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4
It was the last day of October, a cold cloudy night. The children were finally in bed after a long day running through London. It was silent in Wool’s Orphanage, which was something that didn’t happen often. Mrs Cole, a skinny and sharp-featured woman, was walking towards the entrance because she had just finished looking after the children that weren’t even a year old. After an exhausting day, She just wanted to go home as soon as possible when she heard a knock on the door. Why would somebody go to the Orphanage to ask for candy? She didn’t like the concept of this tradition anyway and it was soon to be midnight, so who would go out this late? It took her a while to get to the door. “Isn’t it a little late…” she stopped talking when she realised nobody was on the door. But looking down, she noticed a box filled with blankets and some blue eyes staring directly into hers. This wasn’t something unusual, it actually happened quite often at Wool’s Orphanage but all the other children had cried when they were found. Mrs Cole took the box and noticed a piece of paper which said “Chara Born: 2rd May 1927” Looking back at the child, she wondered why someone would want to get rid of such a beautiful baby. The little girl didn’t seem difficult to handle either, a stranger had just picked her up but she still wasn’t crying. Mrs Cole was always interested in the reasons why parents would leave their child behind but they never found out. After informing the Matron about the new arrival, Mrs Cole went upstairs with the child that still wasn’t making any noise, to put her down with the other young children. There were only a few cribs left and she decided to put Chara next to the only child that also never seemed to cry. Tom Riddle. He was born here in the orphanage and Mrs Cole had helped. It was one of her worst memories, Tom’s mother died after birth and Mrs Cole still thought of her pale face sometimes. Now that her shift was truly over, Mrs Cole finally stepped out of the door into the cold foggy night and noticed that it was extremely dark outside, she looked up to see the moon but there were too many clouds. She may be very exhausted because of the children but she really enjoyed working at Wool’s Orphanage.

I’m so tired of stereotypes that come along every Black women. And the fact that they were created by the white media really pisses me off! I am very proud of all Black girls and I admire all their accomplishments despite the hate of the modern society.
