#KhadijhaRedThunder is a #mixed American model-turned-actress making her acting debut in 2019 with the #Wattpad film After, & in the 2020 sequel, After We Collided.
Born & raised in Spokane, Washington, Khadijha boasts a diverse heritage, including #NativeAmerican (#Chippewa #Cree) #Black & #Spanish ancestry. As a teen, she moved to Seattle where she started modeling. Many might assume that Thunder is a stage name, but its actually her real last name.
Shes known for her curls, but she didnt always have them. Her hair was straight growing up & only became curly after she cut it shorter at 13. Since then, her hair has grown curlier each year. “I try everything, but I would never permanently change my curls. They are my life. I love them.” And would you, if you finally had something you been dreaming of since childhood?
"I grew up around #NativeAmericans. My mom was the only one who was Black, she was the only one with curls. Seeing my mom with her curls played such a big part in how I perceive hair. Just how a parent, in general, affects everything. She never complained about her hair being curly; she was always embracing it. She was just so beautiful & carried herself so elegantly. I dont know—seeing a woman so strong, beautiful & natural, to me, shes just an amazing entity, this phenomenon. Straightening her hair was a rarity. She taught me from a young age that it was damaging to apply heat to your hair. I wasnt allowed to use heating tools. She just really showed me the best route was to be your natural curly self."
"Compared to my other friends who are mixed who grew up with two different cultures & only saw beautiful women on tv with straight hair, it totally affects & hinders their outlook on having curly hair. It would be seen as “wild” or “sexy”—they sexualize curly hair. It wasnt elegant. But seeing my mom being so elegant & ladylike with curly hair, feeling like she was embracing her true self, Ive always liked that. Shes always taught me that."
Her first modeling gig was with Nordstrom & she has since collaborated with DKNY, Marc Jacobs & Puma. 🏴🇺🇸🇪🇸🪶

i've made quite a few posts on #blackfishing and there's always those handful of people who don't think it's a big deal or say i should mind my business when it comes to how people dress, etc. i wish it wasn't a big deal, i wish i could ignore it but a lot of these people make it pretty hard. blackfishing has repercussions that most don't even realize are harmful. this comment is one of them. have you ever felt that you had to overcompensate? have you ever felt that you couldn't wear a hairstyle or clothing because you were afraid of what people would say? #mixedpeople, especially #mixedwomen, are forced to water ourselves down in so many ways. we can't be ourselves, our authentic selves, talk about it or even celebrate it. we're accused of blackfishing AND starting the "trend". @nicoleocran said it best in a article about blackfishing and #mixedfishing in @metro.co.uk: "Blackfishing in particular fuels the stereotype that mixed people are actively trying to deceive people. It perpetuates the “pick me” stereotype – when it is white people who are afforded the opportunity to take on and off this cosplay as they so choose. This is the mixed person’s reality. We just want the opportunity to discuss the fluidity of identity without being mocked, ridiculed or excluded, but music videos like #JesyNelson's or celebrities making billions of dollars in the beauty industry like #KylieJenner, make it easy entertainment fodder." What are your thoughts on this? And please please please be kind to each other in the comments! #mixedgirlproblems https://www.instagram.com/p/CVDxgiml262/?utm_medium=tumblr

Another post about racist statements from white people that I HATE:
“Which part of you is black? Like your mom or dad...”
“You look so exotic, what are you?!”
“I wanna marry a black guy so I can have adorbs little mixed babies like you!”
“Here let me help fix your hair...oops it’s frizzy now, sorry I didn’t know not to brush it”

Sussex Past Life
Erik and I were Augusta (Lady Murray) and Augustus. I wrote about uncovering this. This was discovered nearly four years ago. Stumbling a short while upon an article about the new Sussex royals gave me goosebumps.😳 It looks fucking nuts especially because I can relate to the dutchess in this life and shared the same struggles as her in my past life.
I wasn't recognized as royal blood and therefore our marriages didn't count. I had two children by Augustus (Erik) but he was MIA.
We named our children after us; little Augustus and Augusta.
In this life I have a twin brother and we were named similarly (Monique isn't my first name BTW)
Erik (my Twin Flame) and I were also brother and sister in a past life.
Probably not very significant but still interesting. 😳 When I dug around Augusta I found she had kept journals. It was emotional because I wrote the same way. I posted a comparison picture of her journals and mine. I've also had a separate book kept between my friends to write things in. Just as she did.
We both have interest in natural medicine too. So when I read about what's currently happening in Brittain I was reminded of my past life. They must know about the last Duke and dutchess and I wonder what they think. Like we're thier actions inspired by Erik and myself in that past life? 🤦‍♀️ If anything THEY probably think they are a reincarnation of. 🙄 Psshhh...
Erik said we weren't supposed to be together.
Just like in all our others. Kind of like now too with him being dead and all. I always felt awkward when I saw the royals and deep down a part of me was 😱😩 jealous because of my past life. It's actually kind of funny. But seeing them struggle. Especially for Megan. I feel sorry for her. I had similar troubles.
😘❤️ I love yall!
Check out my store where I offer detailed and credible readings. Please note that pricing is subject to change.

I'm so hurt
By my sister. We're mixed black and light latina. Okay so she is talking to this girl at a birthday party for our friend(mostly mine) they hit it off. Me being absolutely socially awkward lose my one chance to talk to and not be weird around this girl. So they go off to her room. Later bc I didn't know where she was. I went looking for her(knowing full well that I was being an annoying younger sibling) they're talking she acknowledges me in an annoyed way (understandabley so) I leave her alone... For a while this repeats maybe two times. Later when we were down stairs i figured out they were talking about hair. Kind of a thing with us so I try to get involved. My sister turns to me and says. "Black womans hair. Yours is too lose" and hustles away.
And it hurt. And I guess she's right. She's talked about me having "The perfect hair".
Obviously I don't.
But it hurt. Really bad. Ihate it ihate thinking this I cant identify with anything even other mixed girls I feel like Icant even belong there
I'm not black enough I don't know much about my roots or history or language. I suck I could be learning spanish but instead I do sudoku and puzzle games amd ignore the world and my loneliness and my not belonging and my suckiness my awfulness to my friends. I don't feel like a friend anymore. I'm not dependable I dont keep up with them. I'm selfish. I just can't bring myself to care anymore. It so hard and awkward to talk to my friends I feel like idotnknow them anymore and they probably feel the same. I'm failing myself and my family. With my education care of myself and friends and I know I don't do enough for my boys.(birds)
Zuzu is okay I know posted something about him a while back he is completely fine.

Houston, we have a #newprofilepic! December's winner is @savor.garnish! "Hi! My name is Amanda Houston & a friend of mine who was featured before introduced your page to me & I instantly fell in love! 💕. I’m #mixedwith #Black & #White. Key components that #mixedindividuals face is loads of implicit bias. In my experience, White folks feel comfortable with sharing their racially insensitive thoughts with us that they most likely wouldn’t be able to share with someone who is darker. This can be taxing. Then you have the other side which in some cases assume you have privilege when in all reality we take in the complexity of racism beyond one’s perspective. It can be a double edge sword. My highlight to #beingbiracial is that due to this experience I have developed deep empathy & communication styles that I feel have assisted me in resolutional conversations.
I have a background in HR & have participated in developing race & social justice initiatives in the work place & have been able to drive my passion to advocate for others. I’m changing my tempo on my journey & I started a food inspiration page which I am currently building up to expand on starting a business. I’m a Gardner & home cook & dabbled in event planning catering some years back, but after a devastating health complication in the last year - I decided life is short & cooking & inspiring people to learn how to garden is how I want to spread my light - with a touch of advocacy✨🌿
Misshouston35 is my personal account & my inspiration food blogging page is @savor.garnish 🌿.
This is a wonderful page & I’m just proud to be a part of the movement you created! It’s a vibe & a tribe & we need this for our culture ✨💃🏿. Thank you for taking the time & allowing me to share this space with you. 🥂"
Congrats to her! Make sure to congratulate her in the comments! We're a vibe & a tribe, I LOVE that! Thanks again to everyone who entered, see you next year!

Not everyone deserves to know the real you. Let them criticize who they think you are.

How come standing up for myself is deemed as making excuses and not taking accountability for my mistakes? But then someone white does it right in front of me and they’re thanked for ✨adding perspective✨.
How come I’m never white or black enough for people but I’m hypersexualized by my body, skin color, skin clarity, told that I have the hair they want or that all of my gym progress is not that but instead all to do with my black heritage?
Why do white people always “know the perfect product” for my hair? Bitch I don’t use Cantu that shit is garbage and NO you can not touch my weave.

In California I’m too brown to be white (people ask me if I fake tan🙄), in India I’m too blonde to be Indian (people ask me if I dye my hair🤦🏽‍♀️). No one ever believes I’m half Indian, Half Scandinavian until I show a picture of my parents. It use to bother me... A LOT. Now I’m happy to just be a child of the universe; I’m east, I’m west, I’m American... I’m a Strange girl that never really fit in anywhere, but can also fit in everywhere. 🇮🇳🇺🇸🌈🙏🏾🖤 #MixedGirlProblems #Saree #KeralaGirl #CaliforniaGirl #EthnicallyConfused #Malayali (at Trivandrum, India) https://www.instagram.com/p/BupI6nAB1B_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=4xfpb25uihfe

This beautiful piece of medicine that I'm wearing around my neck is from no other Tashina Lee Emery. When I’m away from my elders in the southeastern woodlands (whether Chahta/Choctaw or not) this acrylic incased medicine reminds me of the ones like my grandfather, great-grandfather and cousin Sunny. @mxedgirlprobs It’s Native owned, Native made. Check our sister out : https://www.tashinaemery.com/
