Jasmine Guy secretly hid tupac in her new york apartment after the 1994 quad studios shooting. he left the hospital because he didn’t feel safe. she said nobody knew they were friends, so her place was the one spot people weren’t watching. he and his family stayed about two weeks while a private doctor treated him. she later called it her diary of anne frank moment. She’s a real one 😍

🤴🏿 Michael Jackson refused to perpetuate the whitewashed narrative of Kemet. Despite Steven Spielberg's alleged refusal to support the production of the short film-music video, Michael Jackson stayed resolute 🌸.

He personally financed his own film to create the classic "Do You Remember the Time."
Today, it remains the only authentic depiction of Kemet as it truly was 🤎

Micheal Jackson show-cased the greatness of Black Africans in ancient Egypt (Kemet), in the 90s!! This is the most accurate depiction of the Kemetyu Africans ever put in the mainstream media.

[Black Journals @blackJournals01]

The man who invented the operation that saves babies born with blue-baby syndrome had no medical degree, no college degree, and was listed on the payroll as a JANITOR.

He guided the first operation from a stool behind the surgeon's shoulder, telling him where to cut.

Vivien Thomas. He had been saving to study medicine when the 1929 crash wiped out his savings and the bank holding them.

He took a job as a lab assistant at Vanderbilt for a janitor's wage, because that was the classification available.

Within a couple of years he was running experimental surgery — developing techniques, performing operations on his own, training surgeons.

He moved to Johns Hopkins with Alfred Blalock in 1941, where he was still paid as a janitor and had to enter through a back door.

He was the only Black man in that building not carrying a mop.

He worked out the surgical fix for tetralogy of Fallot — the condition killing infants who turned blue and died — and built the instruments for it.

The first operation on a child was in 1944. Blalock, who had never done the procedure, asked Thomas to stand behind him and talk him through it.

The surgeons on the paper became world famous. Thomas was not credited.

Hopkins hung his portrait in 1971 and gave him an honorary doctorate in 1976. Generations of surgeons he personally trained insisted on it.

He was paid as a cleaner while inventing heart surgery.

In 1974, the Godfather of Soul, James Brown, and I held a press conference at Madison Square Garden to announce that he would perform a July 4th concert at MSG for the National Youth Movement, an organization I founded in 1971 when I was just 16 years old. I was only 19 years old when we stood together at that press conference.

The Mississippi State Medical Examiner's autopsy report found no water in his lungs or airways, despite the grand jury report suggesting Nolan Wells' death was an accidental drowning. The cause and manner of death remain undetermined, with documented evidence of head injuries noted in the report.

Back on our BULL shit.

[the Sports ON Tap @thesportsontap]

Tyrone Bogues grew up in the Lafayette Court housing projects in East Baltimore.

When he was five years old, a man in the neighborhood started firing at a group of kids who had broken his window. Bogues was hit with stray buckshot in the arm and leg and had to be hospitalized.

Five years old.

He has said that moment is exactly when his life changed direction.

"I think it triggered it all when I got shot at the age of five years old," he said, when asked when he decided he was going to be a basketball player.

The rest of his childhood didn't get easier. His father was sentenced to 20 years for armed robbery when Muggsy was 12. His older brother struggled with drugs. He once watched a man in his neighborhood get beaten to death.

In the middle of all that, he found a basketball court.

And then he stopped growing.

Bogues topped out at 5 foot 3, in a sport where the average player is more than a foot taller. Everywhere he went, he heard the same thing.

"When I used to go onto the basketball court and hear all the negative words, like, you're too small, why are you pursuing this game, it really had a major impact on my confidence."

Then he said the thing that explains his entire career.

"After that traumatic experience of being shot, I didn't think anything was devastating. And it definitely wasn't words."

Nothing anybody could say to him was worse than what he had already lived through.

So he played. At Dunbar High School in Baltimore he was part of one of the greatest high school teams ever assembled, alongside future NBA players Reggie Williams, David Wingate and the late Reggie Lewis. Over his junior and senior seasons, Dunbar went 59-0.

Wake Forest took him. As a senior there he averaged 14.8 points, 9.5 assists and 2.4 steals a game.

In 1987, the Washington Bullets drafted Muggsy Bogues 12th overall.

He lasted 14 seasons in a league where the average career is under five years.

He became a starting point guard, mostly for the Charlotte Hornets, where he is still the franchise's all-time leader in steals. He finished with 6,726 career assists, top 25 in NBA history, and 1,369 steals. When he left Charlotte he was the league's all-time leader in assist-to-turnover ratio.

Teammate Glen Rice said Bogues had the heart of a lion. Bogues used to tell teammates that the moment he had the ball, they'd better start running, because he would find them.

There have only ever been 26 players in NBA history 5 foot 9 or shorter. Bogues is still the shortest man ever to play in the league.

He got his family out of Lafayette Court once he made it. Decades after retiring, he started the Muggsy Bogues Family Foundation, which works on food insecurity in Baltimore and funds trade school scholarships for kids from neighborhoods like the one he came from.

A five year old took buckshot in a Baltimore courtyard and decided nothing would ever scare him again.
