Black women being happy, Black women being successful, black women being loved, black women having joy, black women supporting each other, black women having supportive partners, black women having the life they deserve, that is #Insecure ending. #Insecurehbo
#Insecure was the culmination of that entire era. RoomieLoverFriends. Hello Cupid. The Couple. The Unwritten Rules. Becoming Nia. What a time. What a blessing.
I like #Insecure because it was a show about black people existing. Not once did they tried to remind us of black trauma. It felt like I was talking to my black ass friends and not talking to people trying to pitch me something.
#InsecureHBO ending feels like the end of an era. It’s the end of the Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl era, a time when we sat in our dorm rooms and watched web series on our laptops, hosted watch parties, donated to GoFundMes to keep those shows going. It’s just…over now. 😭
