💜 A moment of silence. ALSO- Do NOT use the black lives matter hashtag for these black out posts btw because it’s censoring the important information and posts that are related to BLM that we need to make sure we’re seeing #blackouttuesday

If you know me, you know that colors and sparkles

If you know me, you know that colors and sparkles fuel my soul and brighten my day. ⁣
⁣
Even though I feel heavy with anger and sadness with everything going on...⁣
⁣
I’m thankful I’m surrounded by my colorful artwork and paints in my home and office which help keep me sane⁣
⁣
I hope this image ignites a few of the happy cells in your subconscious as you quickly scroll past it ✨⁣
⁣
Covid has been delaying all my packages for weeks so I was excited when these finally came in lol⁣
⁣
I noticed they matched a big wooden panel I painted on so I had to take a photo 🤗⁣
⁣
Thank you @shoedazzle for brightening my day today with this delivery. #shoedazzlepartner⁣
⁣
PS. I will be releasing the @gangstarcreative episode late tomorrow or Tuesday. It’ll be a discussion between my husband Kevin and myself about everything that’s going on, so stay tuned ⁣

Behind every great man, is a STRONG woman 👸🏼

Behind every great man, is a STRONG woman 👸🏼🤴🏾⁣
⁣
So proud of this man for his growth over the past 14 years I’ve been with him. You’ve driven me mad at times but I’d rather it be you than anyone else.⁣
⁣
Watching you step up as a leader for your friends, family, and community makes me sooo proud. ⁣
⁣
My husband has been working hard on a new business and movement called Black Boss @blackbossmovement with the mission to empower black entrepreneurship so that generational wealth is created amongst black communities.⁣
⁣
In light of the recent horrific events that has impacted the nation and the black community, I share that it’s more important now than ever for EVERYONE to share their voice, take action, and stand up for and with black people.⁣
⁣
It’s sooo important for ALL ETHNICITIES to stand firm as allies to our black friends, families, and neighbors.⁣
⁣
Especially to make the world a better place for the future of our children. ⁣
⁣
As a wife to a black man, friend to many black men and women,& future mother to mixed children...⁣
⁣
And as someone who’s from the south and has experienced racism...⁣
⁣
I do not stand for the ignorance that this nation is filled with.⁣
⁣
If you do not understand why #blacklivesmatter ..⁣
⁣
I invite you to do the following:⁣
⁣
👉🏼 Have an open and understanding conversation with someone who’s black - really LISTEN, put yourself in their shoes&try to see from their lens⁣
⁣
👉🏼 Educate yourself on REAL black history - not the shit they teach you in school - there are many books and documentaries that shed light . The book “Black Labor, White Wealth” by Dr. Claud Anderson and the Hidden Colors documentary series is a great place to start⁣
⁣
And once you can see, empathize, and understand why black lives matter...⁣
⁣
👉🏼 Use your VOICE and YOUR PLATFORM- Share what you’re learning, share peoples experiences, share real facts from black history, speak up when you hear or see people saying or doing the wrong things - don’t laugh and brush it under the table ⁣
⁣
If you don’t agree with me, don’t like what I’m saying, or don’t want to at least try to see the other perspective. Feel free to unfollow me. ⁣
⁣
Wake up people ✊🏼✌🏼💜⁣
