Big life wins, for me.
2 of the most talked about lip sync in Dragrace herstory,
AN EMMY NOMINATION, and The First Crowned Queen of Drag. Im proud of myself and my contributions to the community. To add to all of my other accolades spanning a 30yr career and I aint Stopping.
Sterling K. Brown talks about why he chose to be part of the film “Is God Is”
“So there’s the macro and the micro. I love Black women, and I love seeing Black women win, right? I thought this was an incredibly creative script, something different and new, and I think that we, as a community, have been asking for creative and new stories, right? And I feel like the more diverse the landscape of stories are that we get to tell, the more people will stop putting us into a box in terms of what a Black movie is, what a Black story is. We are everything, and so the opportunity to do everything is something that excites me. Aleshea (Harris) wrote a play, then she adapted the play, and she directed the play, and I think she did so brilliantly. I also love the idea that Black women get a chance to be messy in this film, like hella messy. I feel like oftentimes we’re asked, in many stories, to be voices of reason. Sort of the sensible side component of a larger story, and that’s not the case in this. That is exciting to me.”

You’re not paying people their salary but still expect them to pay for housing, childcare, health, meals, gas/transport, meals to work. So basically, you want the people themselves to pay to work.
This is journalist Karen Attiah, the only Black opinion columnist at the Washington Post. She was just fired for sharing a statement made by Charlie Kirk insulting Black women.
RETWEET if you stand with @KarenAttiah!
‼️‼️THREAD: One thing that I have not seen discussed nearly enough in discourse about Gaza is the scale of intent and accusation in a mirror. There are ten stages of genocide. Zionism had already completed many of the first steps long before October 7th. 🧵
Y’all… #Sinners is an extraordinary accomplishment by all parties involved both in front of and behind the camera. @michaelb4jordan feasts as does the rest of the cast. However, make no mistake this is Ryan Coogler’s triumph. Next level storytelling. Get thee to a movie theater!
