I just....I hate how people portray not only our city but other predominately Black cities. It’s not like living in hell at all. It’s like living in a place that has been routinely and systemically forgotten and used by the government.
So we were at Teyana‘ show last night and the whole crowd was going CRAZY right? Singing all the words and everything. All of a sudden Teyana just stopped and said “They said I couldn’t headline a tour. But y’all know all the words” and started crying.
I read a book about this called Sundown Towns. Most suburbs of Detroit were, and still are, sundown towns. Here is a list from at least 60’s as some of these places have gotten more diverse
The same people mad at Cardi B for saying Offset name in all her songs are the same people mad that they not allowed to say they man name in a conversation. So there is that.

He is still sitting right there in the sunken place period. You said something about Nick Cannon and Drake right before you launch a new Yeezy sneaker? Goodnight nigga 😴
I want black women to stop saying “I want to go back to a time where women didn’t have to work” or “I wish women never fought for the right to work”. Babe….you are black in America. You worked forever

I’ve seen 30 million tweets about people singling out Detroit as being unfriendly. There are unfriendly people everywhere maybe you just a weak ass bitch.

Somebody commented about her not being able to have kids and he said “there is technology and I got the means”. A FATHER. But also why are y’all so stupid?
Everybody Black needs to see this! An Autism diagnosis does not mean that your baby is “slow” it just means they process things differently. We need to get rid of the stigma in our community. 🫶🏾
So since I’ve talked to my new boss and all, I can announce. I am transitioning into a new role as a project coordinator! My previous responsibilities were automated and senior management loves my work so I’m moving into a new department! 🥳
My parents house hasn’t felt like home in a long time. I don’t wanna seem ungrateful because I appreciate living here bill free. But in reality I would rather pay rent and have peace of mind than be unhappy.
My Papa is from New Orleans so his accent is THICK. He was a CEO of multiple hospitals and it was suggested to him that he take classes to get rid of his accent. He politely told them naw. He is one of the most respected men in the Public Health field to this day.
So, as some of you may know, my grandfather who I call Papa was recently diagnosed with cancer. He passed away this morning and I am not okay. If you pray keep my family in your prayers 💛
White people so mad at Halle being the little Mermaid they like “what if we remade Roots with the slaves being white!” Honey don’t threaten me with a good time
