Most wholesome thing I've seen all day.

My daddy Alabama, My pope Louisiana ~🎵

The rules.

Of course the first American Pope is Black. We do everything around this mf

Okay, but Louisiana creole genealogy facebook just started pulling out two hundred years of the new Pope's whole family records back to Saint Domingue, in case you thought Chicago was going to be insufferable alone.

Looks like we have a woke creole/haitian/american/peruvian pope, that kind of combo can probably make the planes safe again.

“Ahmaud Arbery should be celebrating his 31st birthday today.”

😂

Sho nuff.

Poetry always 📷🌱

Because black history is American history.

“A woman was led by federal agents in cuffs away from her family, through a throng of community organizers trying to stop it, and into an unmarked car. The local police arrived to prevent the community from protecting their neighbor from an unlawful kidnapping. They succeeded”

Exactly. Exactly this.

“We’re being canceled when we say the n-word” *white woman says n-word, people giver her $700,000” “We still feel canceled on the inside”

Everything is shit, but I made some porcelain tile cookies🌀

Oh this is phenomenal. Adut Akech putting the capital ‘S’ in stuns. #MetGala

My papa would’ve ate at the met😌 #metgala #blackdandyism

================ AMAZON BLACKOUT MAY 6th - 12th, 2025 ================ #ShopLocal #SupportSmallBusiness #RESIST the #Oligarchy

I finally saw Sinners. Review coming soon but all I can say for now is that I’m holding space for Grace because her man is fine.

Outside the #MetGala: “We heard tale of some well-dressed colored folk in there!”

Migration season is gifting me spectacular guests today, despite the rain 📸🪶

the fact that we could insert any number of college/university names & it'd still apply is 🥴

I want everyone attached to Sinners to reap the benefits of the success. I want to see more Wunmi Mosaku, Jayme Lawson and Miles Caton. I want to see them having full and robust careers on screen.

Good question.
