“So for everybody saying New York is doing too much - just understand:
For a lot of us, we’re not only celebrating a title.
We’re celebrating the people we wish were still here to see it.”
Beautiful ❤️
Heal so you stop measuring your worth by how others treat you. Learn to sit with your emotions without letting them define you. Set boundaries to honor your needs. When wounds are being triggered, respond with compassion rather than reaction. Focus on your integrity and growth.
Stop explaining yourself to people who are committed to misunderstanding you. They're not confused; they get satisfaction from seeing you struggle, frustrated, misunderstood, and trying to prove your validity. Save your explanations for people who genuinely listen to understand.
I put these two clips of Daddy together because I want to share him saying “I’m tired of marching,” then, after continuing the multifaceted work of nonviolence, saying “I’ve been to the mountaintop.”
The 2nd clip is from the speech he gave the night before he was assassinated.

#FoundOnNetflix is an outstanding series. It’s well written and the cast is great. I shed tears at the end of most episodes. I was totally impressed with Shanola Hampton. The amazing people that styled her locs, makeup and clothing deserve awards. She slayed every scene.🔥
So much of who I am is thanks to my time at Howard University. The friendships I made, the lessons I learned, and the belief that we can make a difference together.
I am wishing @HowardU and my fellow Bison a very happy Homecoming.
