Divestor

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.
