Drake finally said what I wrote a chapter about in my book "Far From Over: The Music & Life of Drake" and what I just talked about on CBC Radio yesterday. He boycotted the #JUNOS since 2011 and won't ever go back. He only did this tribute because it was his friend Nelly Furtado

I attended a sneak preview film screening of G20 starring Academy Award Winner VIOLA DAVIS. Davis portrays the President of the United States tasked with saving lives amid intense, high-stakes battle scenes. This film was so GOOD🙌🏼. Airs @PrimeVideo @PrimeVideoCA April 10th 📽🎬

Have you ever heard of Underwater Rugby B4? Neither have I. That's why I gave it a try 😊 🥽💪🏼🩱🏊🏽‍♀️!
I'm wearing cap 8.

This SPORT is no joke! Physical strength. Stamina. Be a strong swimmer. Have the capacity to push your lungs to its limit. Need lots of cardivascular endurance!

My son Solomon was a part of this photo exhibit, "MY HAIR IS ART, PLEASE DON’T JUDGE" held @NiaCentre in #Toronto.

A short film was also screened that amplified their voices, where hair can be an aesthetic, representation of who they are + the intersection it has to onlookers.

Kudos to @KindaHagi for exposing just how disgustingly vile and racist Karla Sofía Gascón is. After Karla's numerous offensive remarks about George Floyd, Black people, Muslim women and Islam in general, there's no way @TheAcademy can sit still on this re: the Emilia Pérez film

BREAKING: Civil rights leader Marcus Mosiah Garvey Jr. has officially been posthumously pardoned, and Howard University School of Law professors and students had a hand in this effort.

For 15 years, Prof. Justin Hansford worked with Garvey’s son to secure this historic acknowledgment.

In 1923, Garvey was convicted on one count mail fraud as president of the shipping and passenger company the Black Star Line, for using the mail to defraud someone into buying stock in the company.

“This pardon acknowledges the wrongful nature of his trial and conviction, affirms Garvey’s innocence, and uplifts Garvey’s unique contribution to the international cause of human rights, justice, and civil rights for all people worldwide,” Hansford said.

A property tax of 6.9%!
It's evident that mayor #OliviaChow lacks any fiscal creativity. Always going to homeowners to bank roll city expenditures #Toronto

Justin Trudeau's track record as a so-called feminist is terrible. He's been an equal opportunity oppressor to powerful Black (Celina Caesar-Chavannes), Indigenous (Jody Wilson-Raybould), Arab (Eva Nassif) & white (Chrystia Freeland) members of his own cabinet who all resigned 🤷🏾‍♂️

Pro Tip #1 - It's all about Equity, Ownership, Compensation, Visibility.

Pro Tip #2 - Join the growing movement of Black folk in #Toronto who will not be your tokens, props, window dressing, or pawns 🫵🏾

While visiting my son at Howard University in Washington DC, I hung out with iconic Ethiopian filmmaker Haile Gerima who was a professor at Howard for many years, and whose bookstore across the street is named after his timeless award-winning film "Sankofa" #HBCU #HowardU
