A very strange group of women who claim to be all about Black Female Empowerment yet instead waste all their time arguing and posting about Black Men and Non Black People on Social Media, acting chummy with White Supremacists, and pedestalizing and obsessing over Non-Black Males whilst calling Black Women who don’t agree with them “Overweight Unpicked Mammies” they are just as male- identified as the BW they are dragging yet they don’t even realize it.
If you’re a Black Woman/Girl it is imperative DO NOT FALL IN LINE WITH THEM.
If you actually want to be About Black Female Empowerment or want to increase your quality of life as Black Woman here is a few tips
1. PROTECT. YOUR. PEACE. it is a waste of time, effort, and energy to constantly be arguing with people regardless if they’re black, white, male, female none of that Learn to Report and Block and move on.
2. Don’t pedestalize anyone but yourself.
3. Keep good grooming habits (skincare, haircare, workout routine, etc)
“If you look good you’ll feel good”
Girl 1: What are Divestors?
Girl 2: Stay far away from them. divestors align themselves with white supremacists.

A black woman who puts herself first. Divestors walk away from toxic behaviors in the black community.
Said toxicity can include: nonreciprocal struggle love for the sake of "black love", being activist warriors for a group of men who don't protect them, baby momma culture, etc. Divestors avoid toxic black people (particularly the men, who are black women's number one victimizers. "Unicorns" are so rare that vetting is not worth it).
A divestor is not male-identified or conventionally "woke" like many black women can be. She is not bound to any unwritten rules of "Blackistan". Divestors care deeply about black women as a demographic (especially in the context of black femicide + DV), but may avoid some individual black women due to their proximity to toxic black male worship.
Many divestors date interracially and leave the hood, but it's a myth that divestment's ethos is to date a white man. A divestor can be: happily single, childfree, w/ a Latino or Asian man, a co-parenting mom, middle class, minimalist, and even a lesbian.
Divestors have a growth, wellness, and self-preservation mindset. Healing/healed from traumas related to the black community. Young divestors tend to focus on their educational goals. Older divestors tend to focus more on their physical health and newfound freedom.
A divestor loves her blackness, but not the BS that comes with it. She is not a tribalist and knows "black power" is about black men.
She can be from anywhere in the diaspora.
Divestor's Sister: "You ackin' funny because you dating out. You think you better than us with all them degrees. You ain't on Instagram no mo', I don't know what you be doing. Octavius been trying to get with you for the longest. He ain't got no churren and he ain't in any run-ins with the law"
Divestor: "Is that the bare minimum? That doesn't make any person a 'good man'. I'm with someone treats me well, has an equivalent educational level, has real interests and hobbies outside of social media/rap/sneakers/weed/hustling, and doesn't have weird views on how our relationship dynamic should be just because I'm a black woman. My man cooks for me, admires my accomplishments rather than compete with me, and is doing very well at providing infrastructure for our future life. I stopped being on Instagram because you kept posting celebrities and dusty men with podcasts.

A Black lady withdrawing all support for the Black community which includes her time, money, resources, care or concern. She puts her own health, wealth and life first. She will date or marry the best person, regardless of race or culture. She will only support people or causes that benefit her directly and respect her time and efforts.
I’ve been a happy divestor from blackistan for nearly 10 years now and I see no reason in looking back. 💅🏽

A community of black women deciding to let go of the notion of “struggle love” and invest in themselves. This community of women believes in black women finding the best partner for them regardless of race or ethnicity. And strongly believes in traditional gender roles. They avoid black men for the most part as they believe they are their biggest threat. Divested women provide evidence to back up these claims.
No Tyrone.. she’s not interested in you. She and her friends are divestors and all married to non black men.
