@kennyrtk @freakoutsideofx Are you not aware of how money wielders make and the numerous jobs opportunities he has at his fingertips? Very elitist.

With deep sorrow, we say farewell to one of the final sentinels of the Tuskegee Airmen. George E. Hardy, who once danced across the skies of Europe in his Mustang has taken his final flight at the age of 100. Leaving behind a legacy forged in courage, resilience, and unwavering dignity.

It began in a quiet room in Philadelphia. A 16-year-old boy hunched over his homework as the radio crackled with the news of Pearl Harbor. In that instant, the world fractured, and George’s childhood evaporated. He didn't wait for history to call; he went to meet it.

Denied entry because of the color of his skin, he didn't retreat. He leaned into the wind. He joined the U.S. Army Air Forces, arriving at Tuskegee not just to learn the mechanics of flight, but to dismantle the mechanics of prejudice.

By 19, George was a "Red Tail," a guardian of the clouds. While the world below was segregated, the flak in the European theater was indifferent. He flew 21 combat missions over Nazi-occupied territory, a teenager in a cockpit proving that valor has no pedigree.

Most men would have seen enough of war. George was not most men.
- World War II: 21 combat missions in the P-51 Mustang.
- Korea: 45 combat missions, braving the dawn of the jet age.
- Vietnam: 70 combat missions, a veteran hand guiding a new generation.

For nearly thirty years, he wore the uniform of a country that didn't always love him back, yet he protected it with a devotion that shames the very idea of hate.

When he finally climbed out of the cockpit, he didn't stop serving. As a Lieutenant Colonel, he helped architect the military’s first global communication systems. He spent his sunset years ensuring that those who followed him would never be out of reach, never be truly alone in the dark.

"He rose above the clouds so we could finally see the light."

Today, we don't just salute a pilot. We salute a man who endured the sting of Jim Crow to earn the silver wings of a hero. He was the quiet defiance in the face of "no," the steady hand in the cockpit, and the humble heart in the room.

The "Red Tails" are thinning now, their formation heading into the eternal sunset. But as George E. Hardy crosses the ultimate horizon, he leaves behind a legacy etched not in ink, but in the very air we breathe.

Rest well, Colonel. The watch is ours. The sky is yours.

@tajjackson3 As a Michael Jackson fan, I would like to see the side of Michael the public didn’t see. What made him laugh? What made him mad? How did he handle and overcome the challenges being “The King of Pop”? I don’t know if I will get this from this film, but I am going

I genuinely feel sad that current 20 something's missed the era of $500 rent, $3 happy hour, 5 bags of groceries for under $100, multiple job offers immediately after applying, and going out to party without social media apps at your fingertips. IT WAS A TIME.

So emotional 😭💔

“You’re too small to ever have a child.”

That’s the sentence my husband left behind when he packed his bags.

I was born with dwarfism.
When doctors told us I couldn’t carry children, he decided that meant I couldn’t be a mother at all.
He walked out. I stayed. I signed the divorce papers alone in a silent apartment that still smelled like him.

For a while, I believed the silence.

Then one afternoon, I walked into a shelter.

In the corner of the room was a crib most people passed without stopping. Inside it — a one-year-old Black baby girl. Left at birth. No visitors. No one asking about her.

I picked her up.

She wrapped her tiny fingers around mine and didn’t cry.

That was it.

I signed the papers. I took Naomi home.

People stared at us.
They whispered.
They asked how I would carry her.

I carried her everywhere.

On buses.
Up staircases.
Through grocery stores and doctor’s appointments.
Through every hard year and every beautiful one.

And Naomi? She ran.

She ran faster than doubt.
Faster than the stares.
Faster than every limitation someone once placed on our family.

She grew into a track-and-field champion.
I stood in the crowd, watching her step onto podiums I never imagined we would reach.

I couldn’t bring a child into this world.

But I brought love into hers.

And somehow, I became the mother of the strongest girl in the world.
