Menopause is such a fun little season of life
You're exhausted by 2 PM, wide awake at 3 AM, overstimulated by group texts, mysteriously puffier than yesterday, your brain clocks out mid-sentence, and you are one chewing sound away from a felony.
I love that for us
What a privilege it is to afford a gym, buy healthy food, pay bills, have legs that walk, eyes that see, a brain that functions, work every day, and take our bodies to their full potential.
Black women earning degrees is forever a flex and Iโm tired of people acting like itโs not. It was once ILLEGAL for us to read. Every graduation is a form of resistance.
Kiki Shepard, the beloved co-host of Showtime at the Apollo, has passed away at 74.
In the 1980's at a time where women of color were rarely centered on television she stood as a symbol of elegance, glam, excellence, and cultural pride.
A Howard University graduate who finished in the top 10% of her class and a proud member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., Shepard carried the legacy of Black excellence with her wherever she went.
Kiki Shepard leaves behind a legacy that is both timeless and deeply felt.
