This DIDDY thing is not a surprise, but it makes me remember the horrible way he treated my friend. KIM PORTER. and how I've always silently held him responsible for her young death. #RIP KIM

@ethanrocker12 @luxurytrash_ Elia Kazan "turned in" other Actors, Directors, Writers who were suspected of being COMMUNISTS to the government's committee HUAC. Those people were then Blacklisted & their careers destroyed. Many were not actually Communists but went to the wrong Hollywood Party, etc.

What ya'll saw in that video of Diddy beating Cassie was NOTHING. Will never forget the time he tried to make Kim Porter lick Cassie's tampon. Always using Kim's race as a put down. You guys don't know the HALF of what women go through with famous & powerful men. Be they.

@maggiemgilll Feminism has blessed women with the free will . to dress however we want. You can totally dress up 1950's style. Only now -- you have rights.

@Thebrokengalco I'm not comparing shit -- . I'm telling you WHAT HAPPENED!!!!!. Cassie ended up being treated the same way the women she "Replaced" were treated -- at first she thought it was cute when she a teen & he was beating on Kim Porter. But later she *BECAME* Kim. These are FACTS.

@ysmammri Not to mention -- it's NOT actually true. Less than 1% of women in USA are able to live off a man's money alone.

@mookthee @zoejsheppard @camzila23 GASLIGHT was nominated for 7 Oscars back in 1944. It won Best Actress for Ingrid Bergman. The term "Gaslighting" came from the movie. It SHOWS YOU how a husband keeps re-arranging their house to convince the Wife that she's "imagining things" until she goes Crazy.

@feloneigh I didn't say Cassie brought it upon herself. YOU DID!. I'm on Cassie's side. But of course I had tell the entire story -- she started out thinking she was special and would not be treated the way that she watched him treat Kim Porter.

@wj_ntth @browardbully @OFFICIALNARVO Judy Garland was a "Child" in that blackface skit from the 30's. WHEN SHE GREW UP . she fought for Harry Belafonte and Sammy Davis Jr. to headline hotels & appear in movies --she had Lena Horne on her t.v specials, she PUBLICLY spoke up for Dr. King & Civil Rights. Be fair.

@simsimmaaz @Chicquie5 I like both --BEY and Taylor Swift. Naturally, I relate more to Beyonce. I don't deny that. But I am able to appreciate the work of both women. I wish our society wasn't like it is (PETTYasFUGG).

@prettinpinky_ That WHOLE INDUSTRY. is weaponized against the Black Community. The people with the most talent can't even get a contract. But the ones who hate themselves or willing to sell out get MASS publicity and fame . by design.

@tanaebriana @JordanSumbu @FilmUpdates OR -- they don't see what the big deal is, why you can't just forgive the guy & be Pals with your Rapist. For generations. Multitudes of young girls were forced to CONTINUE being cordial to their Uncles after 'molestation' is revealed. Remember?. They believe you.

@bertrhude @StillStilettos As an African . I'll celebrate when I see something substantial. MY COUNTRY (Sudan) --which I already despise-- is being ripped apart by 2 Warring factions both of whom don't believe in civil rights or Democracy. So I'm unable to share enthusiasm just yet.

@roselyddon Why don't you "all" stop blaming everything on Feminism?. It's like. None of these comments ever even describe what Feminism ACTUALLY is. God. And then you give MEN the right to their lives & their mistakes & think that's only natural, but not women. .

@andrealisset I believe what KIM PORTER told me. And I'm definitely on CASSIE'S side as well. Cassie was horribly abused -- exactly the way that she saw Diddy abuse Kim Porter when he & Cassie were cheating on Kim. FACTS matter. Both women were victims of psychological & physical abuse.

@LadyCaneMeghan @damnitchristine @JaytotheTee One time -- 4 in the morning--. Diddy brought Cassie (who was basically a teenager) into his bedroom where KIM PORTER was sleeping & woke up Kim & told her to get out of the bed so Cassie can get in it. Kim was treated like shit for years & Cassie giggled about it until SHE.

@browardbully PERSONALLY . I think we should forgive both Judy Garland and Shirley Temple. They were both children in the 1930's when their studios dressed them in Blackface. BOTH spent their adulthood fighting for Black rights & donating to Black causes. Were allies.

@jazzjanaee @ParissAthena You know---. Black people have to STOP seeing it that way. When I was a child in SUDAN and White people came. hundreds of Blacks would crowd around & gawk at "hair on their arms" & blue eyes. This is natural for HUMANS to be in awe of vast differences. It's not a put down.

@maria_splsn @AquafarE But Maria, be careful with that brush. I am BLACK and I LOVE (absolutely love) having my skin tone compared to Chocolate. So not every Black person is offended by the "Chocolate" compliments. I don't know anything more divine than Cacao or prettier. BE CLEAR . on that.

@africanarchives What made the Arab slave trade so barbaric was. *They had no plantations; they killed the slaves once goal (ie. city built) was reached. Recruited new slaves for next goal. *Women were de-tongued & sterilized for RAPE. *Black men were often castrated.

@SomePeculiar @JordanSumbu Black British men are ALSO worse than AA Men when it comes to these issues, but we may be speaking too early. I actually LEFT UK (I lived in Brixton) bec. of Black British men's hatred for Black women. It was too much for me.

@Yannfoolery @ValerieComplex What angers me MOST about how shabbily Zora Neale Hurston was treated. is how BLACK WOMEN failed to acknowledge or stick up for her in the 30's, 40's and 50's. Alice Walker has said this too. Black Women were "So ashamed" of ZORA & dubbed her "Crazy". There's so much to story.

@SweetestSenci That's true!. I only met Kim Porter "in person" ONCE. We met at a charity event. We had dinner afterwards. We chatted on the telephone for about 2 years. But we only met in person one time. We were not BESTIES or close. But I'm telling you what she confided in me about.

@asiaxcooper @RosyShepherdess @rosethaaartist PREACH!!!!. Long before the Feminist Movement (which I would never put down). But LONG before it. BLACK WOMEN were already working 16 hour days starting from 1619 all the way through. There was never a time in USA when BW were NOT working & being underpaid/raped.

@JaytotheTee She wasn't forced. BACK THEN -- she was the "new" Piece & LOVED being told she was superior to Kim due to her race & her hair and all the typical shit that women suck up when they're being "USED" to put down another woman. But later on he started treating her same way he did.

@NathalieGray @shadowandact To play in Saudi Arabia, I can promise you they are going to EDIT OUT a lot of the women's parts. Just like they edited out Hillary and Condi from their own press conferences for heads not being covered. Still. it's amazing they would show the film at all in that country. WOW.

What people don't know is that DIONNE WARWICK is the person who brought a lawsuit that resulted in Music Artists finally (in the late 70's) receiving royalties when their songs played on the radio. Before that, no one got any radio royalties. DIONNE did that!.
Did you know that the artist can see the names of the playlists you’re adding their songs to on Spotify? 👀.

Verdict is in. YANG was big hit on THE VIEW. Sisters are saying his calm demeanor & reluctance to put down others really spoke to them. PLUS his plan would revolutionize the economy & bail out the PEOPLE for a change. @rach_yuen @yang_hologram @scottsantens #YangOnTheView.

@Coolness941 Black people (as a rule) don't CELEBRATE their "stars", artists, icons with the same reverie that WHITES appreciate theirs. Black contributors really do have to DIE -- before the Black community will take time to fashion a meaningful recognition--and even then--MOST go unsung.

@lawless08 @StillStilettos If Will is smart (and I think Jada might point him in this direction). He will go on and EMBRACE being a "Black Star" --meaning-- beloved by the real folks in a tangible way. He already won an Oscar. He can go the Paul Robeson route from here on out IF (IF) he smart.

TELL US. How did "Little Black Girls" feel being called Bitches & Hos' on the radio & music videos for 35 years by Black Men??? What did that do us psychologically? How did Black girls view themselves?.
I think about how the media is describing Black women, making them the end all, be all of Black progression. Imagine what that does to little Black boys and how they view themselves in the world. There’s something deeply nefarious going on with this narrative.

@damnitchristine @JaytotheTee I feel bad for CASSIE. I really do. No woman deserves that treatment. HOWEVER -- I'm not about to forget the fact that Cassie "enjoyed" Diddy humiliating Kim Porter with the whole "Latina chick is superior to you dark Black chick" insults that went on for years. Kim was SO.
