Writing for Wear Your Voice, self-described “queer, agender Black fat femme writer, artist, and cultural producer” Ashleigh Shackelford penned in article in which she demanded payment for being fat and black.
Her article, titled “F*ck You, Pay Me: Reparations for Fat Black B*tches and Everything We Provide” tries to make the case that she deserves money because people look at her for inspiration and people “eat off [her] flesh for their own resilience, support or power.”
Shackelford writes, “Pay me a check, pay me consistently, provide me safe housing, offer me a job with benefits, run me those Beyonce tickets, finance my clothes and wigs and aesthetics, cultivate accessibility to spaces and provide seats that fit me, see and validate my humanity.”
According to her, “thin and acceptable-body-type women and femmes constantly expect me to carry their pain or defend their honor in moments of violence.” Everyone “takes from her,” Shackelford continues, and she’s had enough.
“I remember one particular example of a thin, white girl who followed me around the club to record me dancing,” Shackelford writes, “She literally chased me around the club until I grabbed her phone and smashed it on the ground. And I wish a n*gga would tell me I didn’t do the right thing, or say I took it too far.
“THIS IS MY LIFE EVERY DAY. I’M BULLIED EVERY DAY. I’M READY TO FIGHT EVERY DAY. Like I said, F*CK YOU, PAY ME.”
Ms. Shackelford finishes her article, saying, “In conclusion, the case for reparations for fat Black bitches is: f*ck you, pay us.”
I agree. Trim black men and women should pay her the reparations she seeks. Everyone else is already paying for obamaphone, EBT card, Affirmative Action, etc.
Fuck you, bitch, you forgot to mention that you’re ugly too! We’ve already paid you and your people reparations for being fat, black, ugly, and criminals. It was called the civil war, SNAP, EBT, and any other free government cheddar that fat, ugly blacks get but whites are refused. Now get your ass out into the fields and pick some cotton, maybe you’ll lose some of that blubber.
There is really some fucked up thinking out there. No doubt there are people that think she has a valid point.
Go pick Cotton and STFU
it used to be “the world doesn’t owe you a living”.
now it owes everyone one.
get the stupid bint to tell you who should be signing the checks?
1 way ticket to Africa.
Cost less than a billion, but save us 10x in year one.
Here’s the deal, Assleigh. If you have some goods or services that I find valuable to me, and if we can agree on an acceptable price, OF COURSE I’ll pay you. In the absence of such a contract, leave me alone or I’ll start charging YOU for wasting my time.
The only thing I would ask of her is not to sit on me with her fat black ass.
HOLY SHIT!! MAKEUP MUCH??
yeah, I’ll fucking pay you, with a 2×4 shot to your empty fat nubian head.
A worthless faggot negro? How about a trip half way to Africa?
A job with good benefits?
OK hun, I hear the Cincinnati Zoo is looking for a replacement silverback.
Clickbait satire. Gotta be.

Don’t have to make sense … just send a check.

She should be grateful. Her ancestors could have been sold to Islam as sex slaves, or she could be one of the 95% that crossed the Atlantic and landed in South or Central America. It would be a whole different life, honey.
she/it should be writing for the weekly newsletter at the Home for the Insane. Thats where we used to put the crazy people
SMARTY-“1 way ticket to Africa.”
Sorry Smarty but I can not get with your plan! Buy ’em a boat trip 1/2 the way to Africa and let them walk the rest!
Everybody TAKES from YOU, bitch? How about YOUR people, who wear me out with their stupid, frivolous filings in Family Court? Who pop out a new baby every year or two, and then just sit back and expect Uncle Sam to fund the whole enterprise?
Far from writing your fat, lame ass a check, what I’d really like to do is smack you upside your stupid head.

Find yourself a lamppost darlin’, stand under it, and I’m sure you’ll get plenty of offers from weirdos that have ‘fat, black, bitch’ fetishes.
There, problem solved.
I was wondering whether “I am so sick of this shit” would work as a homicide defense??
