[@aisha1066]

I drop kicked a boy when I was 8 cuz he said a racial slur ... I ain’t sorry 😐

[@vantagray3236]

I love this woman and the show!
However, sometimes boys get bullied too. Sometimes, it's even girls who do the bullying. They may be older, larger, and stronger than the boy. Is it more wrong to hit a girl than a boy? If so, doesn't that mean that boys and girls aren't equal, and/or that boys are worth less than girls?
Let's discourage violence, period. Let's encourage the empowerment of every child to stand up to bullies, regardless of what is between their legs.

While I hear you, and definitely agree with what you've said, I just want to point out that you are yelling "lung cancer matters too" at a walk for breast cancer. I don't know why you thought this video sharing Danai's one experience was the equivalent of saying only girls get bullied by boys and therefore the opposite must be proclaimed lest we all forget that boys get bullied too or that girls can also bully. No one said they didn't or that they don't.
