Melanincholy

A state of sadness caused by witnessing black people suffer.

Melanincholy is a result of systemic racism, the continuing economic inequalities, the white racist ideologies and attitudes created to maintain and rationalize white privilege and power, and last but not least, the police brutalities towards black people.
Black girl: Hey what's wrong? You seem down?

White man: I just watched a video of black man getting beaten to death by the cops. I feel sad, depressed, angry and I want to do something about it, but I don't know what to do.

Black woman: Ah, you're feeling melanincholy.

White man: Dude! That's exactly how I feel. Thank you for explaining my feelings to me. I feel so much better now. I'm going to post a black square on Instagram! #BLACKLIVESMATTER

Black Woman: That's amazing! What would we do without you.

Melanie

She's just the person who might be misunderstood a lot, her mood must vary at times, her physique is unique. I guess a Melanie really hides their feelings and says she's okay, most of the time she's not okay. People with the name Melanie are very kind at heart, might get a little jealous at times and always has good intentions, her flirting style is awkward and she might not be the most outgoing at times. She might rather be in her favorite space and do her own thing. If you have a friend whose name is Melanie, you should never lie to her, just tell her the truth, in a friend group she's the one to give advice and gives the sweetest hugs in the world. If she breaks down at anytime, give her a hug and give her some TLC from all the holding back she's done within her, and might be the artsy one within your friend group and your big sister because she is your guard and wants you to feel safe and comfortable at all times. If you have a family member or sibling whose name is Melanie, she might be just the one to give you a good greeting in anytime of day with a great big hug. She might express herself through any activities she does, she's never the one to break the rules and rather be in her home. She loves family and it's her number one priority.
You can be such a Melanie at times and I care for you a lot.
