@MakeupMimosas@JimmyKimmelLive@quintabrunson So true. I loved my primary school teachers so fiercely. They looked like me, they went to my church, some of them and more than a few of them told me they expected great things from me and that I had to use my gifts to raise my people. God I loved them for saying that .

We send them into schools to be "educated" by people who do not love them, to people who bruise their psyche, distort their view of themselves, and expect little from them. We, we do that to our babies. Why? #Blacklife#BlackArtist
