{{ so I had a great 3 days with my family… and now I’m sitting broken down on the side of the road with what looks like a fucked transmission. just FML. I don’t have the $ for this. }}
{{ it now in the shop but won’t get looked at until likely next week. Back to biking and suffering for me. Dear gods above, please let this not be too expensive. }}
{{ I’m trying to hold off panicking but research into my car shows that transmission failure at my mileage is, unfortunately, common… and if that is what it is it could be upwards of $1000… I don’t have that much at all. If it ends up costing that much I’m going to have to look into taking a loan or begging… at least I can bike to work during the summer. If I’m not on much this week, it’s cuz the stress of this is eating me alive. }}

Writing With Color is grateful to receive PoC Profiles from folks all over the world, PoC Profiles being a snapchat in the life of folks of marginalized race, ethnic and religious groups who share their stories. This post features some that have gained traction from readers and resonated with many (Based on 2014-2016 results).
We highly encourage reading all of the perspectives WWC readers have to offer. You may find them insightful, especially in regards to getting that “real” perspective as well as learning more of how people would like to be portrayed in media, as many offer thoughts on their representation.
In some black communities there’s still a stigma that kinky or coarse hair is “bad”, which couldn’t be further from the truth. There’s no such thing as good or bad when describing someone’s natural hair texture or type. To those struggling to love and accept their natural hair because of societal pressures, remember this – straight, curly, kinky or wavy, it doesn’t make a difference. Embrace your hair the way it is, no matter what society tells you. All hair is good hair. It’s your Crown.
