    Already a harder day than it should be, but happy pub day to me. Thanks to everyone that’s helped spread the word about it. I hope this book finds as many people as possible. Amazon: amzn.to/42j90ox Bookshop: bit.ly/3OhANQH Everybody: harpercollins.com/products/i-fin…

    Waking up to eight deaths is sad enough and then you see the level of desensitization and disregard for human life casually shown in a lot of the videos floating from Astroworld. I don’t even know how you fix that.

    Teachers never get enough respect and people have been especially awful to them in the plague so it makes me very happy to see one be treated with kindness and gratitude. The smiles say everything.

    My mom recently told me that the first year Juneteenth became a holiday in Texas, the white medical staffers all took off to force their Black counterparts to work that day. That vileness still permeates Texas/nationwide & that’s so depressing, but she also said celebrate anyway.

    In the past year, there have been 596 media mentions of Pete Buttigieg being a Rhodes scholar. But Cory Booker is also a Rhodes scholar. Why has his scholarship been mentioned only 79 times?

    The idea that a British historian and Royal biographer doesn’t believe race is a factor in the treatment of Meghan Markle is laughable in of itself, but stay until the very end, when she slips and uses “colored people.”
    Replying to @CBSMornings
    “I don’t believe race is a factor,” Penny Junor says of the treatment of Meghan Markle.

    To refer to your own as "animals" is so despicable. Thank you for the memories, Trina, but good riddance to you and Black celebrities like you. Y'all are failing us.

    I love Kelis, but saying Satan is boosting Beyoncé makes her look like a hater. Would hate for her legacy to be denigrated to eclectic Keri Hilson.
