“My hero is my 14 yr old daughter we were on the way home and she saw a elementary kid sitting under a tree in a shopping center.
She said, “it's too hot 🌞Mama, stop the car🚗.”
She then asked the boy, “where are your parents?”The boy said, “I don’t know.” She said “can you call them?” He said “I only have my dad’s number.” She let him call his dad also not standing too close so he wouldn't be afraid.
Then she told him to get off the street and go in front of the Rite Aid so strangers won't try to get him and he can run in the store if need be. Then she said “Mama, let's wait until he gets picked up and I might have to get him some water if it's not soon.”
This is why I will never let a person tear me down as a mother. This is just confirmation of the kind of children I'm raising Queens and Kings 👑👑”

What is this world coming to? I attended my sons school for a dance recital and a song was played featuring the n-word. Somebody has some explaining to do. I will not sit in silence. I will not tolerate perpetual gaslighting.

Tennessee is attempting to use eminent domain to take land that has been in Black families for generations so Ford can build electric vehicles. The families just want a fair deal.

@naima Some of you will never know what he went through that caused him to make that decision. Being mixed raced 40 years ago wasn't as accepted by BLACKS OR WHITES as it is today.
To all of the verified Twitter Blue vigilantes who feel duty bound to educate me about:
a) Africans enslaving other Africans.
b) Black on Black crime in America, or
c) How my privilege makes me somehow less Black.
Please f*ck all the way off!
