8 years is not enough!! Is there any doubt that this man will re-offend?? And the fact that he's graduated to kidnapping says that he'll become even more violent in the future.

Tales From The Crypt was my ish!! And I wasn’t even in elementary school lol. And they wonder why I turned out this way...

It really is so very crucial! We need to surround ourselves with people who celebrate us, recognize us and SEE our humanity, our pain, our struggles and our WORTH. And we need to lift that community up every chance we get, celebrate it because a community like that is precious in a world that will seek to destroy it.

YES!! THIS IS A WORD!! BW constantly labeled by those who refuse to recognize our humanity or see how very hard we are trying to survive in this world. Thank you for this.

Wow!! You put National Geographic to shame lol! Such striking images that feel so true to life, like you captured your subjects essence. The Slave Market album was profound and haunting in a very painful way. Only a few photos, but they had a powerful impact on me. The DC pictures are lovely in a slice of everyday…

I'm ashamed to admit that this made me laugh out loud. Shame on you lol

These people have made Trump their religion sadly. They worship him. 

My condolences.

Please adopt me before the official Purge is conducted!!

And yet the mainstream media and Democratic establishment continues to coddle and code their racial animus as “Economic Anxiety” and paint them as the forgotten and overlooked true red blooded Americans. Which is fucking rich. And why can’t white men suffer like the rest of us?? Ya’ll aren’t the only ones losing their…

Not to mention that they think rabid misogyny is presidential. So, they hate POC and women, which means WOC are doubly fucked in Trump’s America. And these voters were completely okay with feeding us to the wolves. And mainstream media and certain parts of the Democratic establishment continues to court and coddle…

Hugs to you too, sis. I’m trying to make it an effort to treat myself and give myself a break from current affairs regularly. I hope you have found or will find some sort of peace of mind too. I pray that for all of my Black Folk throughout diaspora. You are so right, what we’ve been through these past few years have…

Amen. How do they think we got our battle scars?? We've been through wars and a good deal of us are still fighting. Stay strong sis, I don't know what you went through, but know that you are not alone and I hope you make it to a place where that pain isn't as present as it is now.

Preach it sis!! Every last word was a sermon to my soul. I felt like Karen White’s Superwoman was playing in the background while I was reading your comment (the old school R&B folks know what I’m talking about) . These things we been knew but need to say it over and over again because they rather gaslight us rather…

You betta tell em!! It's a damn shame that you even have to fight about giving ALL Black Women a chance to be seen, heard and recognize. Stay strong cause I know fights like this must take a toll after awhile.

Well done sis!! That is the type of globe trotting I aspire to. Honestly, there is nothing like traveling to some distant place on your own. It is terrifying, exhilarating, intense...so many things!! It’s impossible to describe it. But it is truly the best. You connect to the locals deeply, you connect to the land…

America has never and maybe will never see children when they look at black and brown children. This is a country that literally SOLD Black children, STOLE Native American children and even til this day they have Brown children in cages like animals. Not to mention the Middle Eastern children who’ve died from drone…

I completely understand!! I go through a similar stage where I avoid all media and technology, spend most of my time doing yoga, hiking, listening to positive music, spending lots of time in nature trying to forget that there is a dangerous world outside of my bubble. And then it flips and I binged read the news and…

The thing about carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders is that it will eventually crush you. For far too long we have taken care of both black AND white America and have gotten little to absolutely nothing in return and it is KILLING US. We have to start making ourselves a main priority. We absolutely have…

My mouth literally dropped when I saw that picture. She is the incomparable, undeniable GOAT and tennis should be thanking God ceaselessly that she exists. They don't deserve her.
