For anyone else that may need to hear this today ❤️👑❤️

[Julia E. Torres (MAEd., MA, MLIS) @juliaerin80]

Got a mysterious card in the mail today that said words I needed to hear when I needed to hear them. Tell the people you love and appreciate what you love and appreciate about them. Details matter. Looking for the good in folks does more for you (and them) than you might know...

[I Wear My Crown With Pride @crown_pride]

@juliaerin80 Needed this today. Thank you!

.@thehoneypotcomp Founder Beatrice Dixon found herself in the middle of controversy after proudly stating her plans to pave the way for future Black female entrepreneurs. https://t.co/BKJ9ugWwOO

"The reason why it’s so important for Honey Pot to do well is so the next Black girl that comes up with a great idea, she can have a better opportunity,” @QueenBea_101

Please leave a positive Trust pilot review for Honey Pot products. White (mostly women) refuse to use a product that is "racist" and shows "black fragility"

[Watashi Wa Star 💫 @eleven8]

Honey Pot, a black woman owned natural hair care line that’s sold in Target, had a commercial where they said they want to empower black girls.

Now white women are mad and have been leaving them a low rating.

Please give them 5 stars https://t.co/FABhpr4ZkH

[I Wear My Crown With Pride @crown_pride]

Empowering Black Girls is "racist"

[John Lewis @repjohnlewis]

We were beaten, we were tear-gassed. I thought I was going to die on this bridge. But somehow and some way, God almighty helped me here. We cannot give up now. We cannot give in. We must keep the faith, keep our eyes on the prize.
