Actor. Model. Writer. I'm creative. I enjoy exploring ideas that inspire people. In art you have to take risk in order to know what you're capable of achieving.

Tatyana Ali (Ashley from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air) spoke about the difficult pregnancy she had with her first child and the discrimination that Black women face during pregnancy

“I had a really healthy pregnancy… and all of that changed once we got into the hospital. Our birth plan wasn't followed... I was also held down, my arms and legs," she continued, using the term “obstetric violence” to describe the experience she went through

“I mean, I'll be real with you, they pushed him back inside me… that's what happened, my baby was all the way crowned, that’s not a real procedure.”

“In my records, it shows that he goes from the lowest station, I saw his hair, I touched his hair, to the highest station and it doesn't say how that happened. It's an incredibly dangerous thing that they did; they could have snapped his neck, but this is after hours of them holding me down.”

She added that her baby "couldn't pee on his own for a long time, about five or six days."

“Actually, it was a pediatric urologist who was the only one who came to my side and said, ‘I saw what happened during your birth, the things that resulted in this emergency C-section.’ She said, ‘I think the traumatic nature of his birth is what is causing this,’ ” Ali recalled, revealing, “We [then] left [the hospital] in the middle of the night … we ran away."

Black women suffer discrimination during pregnancy, and Ali made a point of emphasizing that

“It's been happening for a very long time … black women are three to four times more likely to die in childbirth, and I think a lot of times people go, ‘Oh well, those are other health risks.’ Yes, that's in the mix of things, but there are incredible traumas that are also being experienced in the hospital when you're a black woman, an indigenous person, giving birth. The treatment is just totally different…”

Congratulations Ryan, Michael, and to the entire cast and crew. Must see in a cinema and stay through the end credits!

From our earliest days, Black history has always been American history – and Black folks have profoundly shaped our American culture through music, art, literature, sports, and beyond. One month a year is not sufficient to celebrate the power of the movements and the people who have fought for the rights we enjoy today. That’s something that we have to do each and every day, as we strive to live up to their example and make sure our children and grandchildren remember their stories.

Imagine going through this every day of your life. People compare Michael Jackson's level of fame with others, but they really don't know what it's like to live in every celebrity's shoes, and even less could they bear to live like Michael Jackson did even from his childhood. Fame and success have a very high price.

Can I ask something? Why they only saying Will's name? Martin was one of the producers and everything.

RIP 🕊️ HIV/AIDS activist Hydeia Broadbent. Never forget seeing her on the Oprah show that day talking bout it. Doctors said she wouldn’t make it beyond 5yrs old.
