I interviewed a woman who is terminally ill. ‘So,’ I tried to delicately ask, ‘What is it like to wake up every morning and know that you are dying?’ ‘Well,’ she responded, ‘What is it like to wake up every morning and pretend that you are not?’

Nothing can stop this woman’s buzz. Not even a hurricane.
Honestly I never promote GoFundMe pages but when I was sent this wallahi I felt like throwing up thinking of how cruel people can be. Let’s help this sister out! May Allah SWT forgive us for any sins we committed and always remember…whatever your problems are in life…they are nothing compared to other people’s. Tonight before you go to sleep thank Allah for everything you have. She was walking to school and a man threw acid all over her face. “Assalmu Alaikum brother. This picture before you was taken of a Muslim sister, Suad. She was going to school when a fellow man viciously threw acid at her. Her injuries are very severe and she needs help. She was the breadwinner in her family and now they have no money to pay her hospital bills and she is to be sent home without it. Can you please make this picture go viral and let everyone know so they can donate to her cause inshallah. 🙏🏽https://www.gofundme.com/ru5cjwj8 that’s the link . Inshallah let’s help Suad 😊"
RCMP are asking for the public’s help in locating a missing 26-year-old Saskatchewan woman.
Dakota Tierney Jade Pratt was last seen leaving her home on the Gordon First Nation around 10 a.m. on July 21.
Pratt is described as First Nations, five-foot-seven and 175 pounds with black hair. She was last seen wearing black leggings and carrying a white purse.
While it’s believed Pratt was headed to Moose Jaw, she may have gone to Saskatoon or Prince Albert, RCMP said.
Anyone with information on her whereabouts is asked to contact Punnichy RCMP at 306-835-5200 or the nearest police service or detachment.
Do you know this girl? Have you ever heard of her? I hadn’t, until just today. Let me educate you. Her name is Teekah Lewis. She just turned 19 when us Americans were hooting and hollering over the lame ass, predictable fireworks. She’s been missing since January 23rd of 1999. I saw an episode of Nancy Grace Mysteries by chance (I’ve never watched her before), and I immediately searched Teekah on tumblr, assuming at least this website would know about her. I assumed wrong. This beautiful black, now woman, has two posts about her. Two. She is just as important of every little rosy cheeked white baby gone missing. So please, help find Teekah. Or at least know her fucking name.

18 year old Tania Harris was shot twice by police in Robbinsdale, MN yesterday. Police were called to the scene to protect her from a potential fight and are claiming she had a knife but her mother and witnesses are saying that her mother had taken the knife from her before police shot her.
Tania was cuffed and put in the back of the squad car after being shot.
She survived the shooting and is in stable condition.
The local activists are already planning actions around supporting her.
