People like Kathy are rare. Never thought Iโd get to work with someone like her. Then I did. And it was glorious. Sheโs a dope person whoโs shown me what leading with kindness looks like. To her future co-workersโnever forget sheโs a gift. Yโall are lucky to see such greatness!
@eeddings You and @bmluse have always provided so much support for me and so many others. So know how much I'll forever value you both. ๐งก๐๐งก๐
There's a lot I wanna say, and that the rest of my remaining team wants to say (and we will). But let me be crystal clear. I'm really glad Eric spoke up. He didn't have to. He didn't start any of this. And he doesn't deserve this crap.

Ugh, this breaks my heart. The show has been such a saving grace for me in more ways than I could imagine. But I know there will be good things coming to all the folks at The Nod. Trust and believe.
Next Friday, we're saying goodbye to The Nod.
It's been a pleasure and privilege to tell Black stories for so many years. We are grateful to everyone who has supported, worked on, or with the show. Until next time,
@bmluse & @eeddings
I've been working on this show about people refusing to accept things as they are. Young Black and Brown people fighting for what they believe in. Months ago I wanted to turn away from all this shit. Now I have a way to engage with it. Hoping it does the same for y'all. Listen.
