Jay-Z telling Black people to go back to Target to buy his music should be the thing that snaps people out of their obsession from him. But it’s “separate the art from the artist” I guess

I’m just going to go back to exploring authors and reading unpopular books. The books people swearing are 5 & 6 stars are just not hitting the same for me. I’m just tired of reading the same type of characters in urban fiction; smdh! 😒 #blackbooksky

I have read back to back books where the FMCs were strong, smart, career driven women turned into dickmatized let me just be in this man’s skin all day weak let me throw everything I worked for away women. 🤦🏾‍♀️ Why can’t the women be happy, in love, and still have a career they love? 😒 #booksky

Every single day, over 125 families are shattered by gun violence. This is a life or death public health crisis. We know the solutions to gun violence, but Republicans would rather bend to the gun lobby and reverse our progress. Our children deserve to grow up safe.

Reading a book you read in your 20s versus reading it in your 40s hit different. I forgot I was the same age as the FMC when I read this book. I’m annoyed with the amount of times the author keeps brining up her name in the book. 🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️ #blackbooksky #booksky

This entire book series has had me in a choke whole. I’m ready for book 4. #booksky #fantasybooks

Hadiya Pendleton should be turning 29 today. She should be celebrating with her family, but gun violence stole her future. She was shot & killed in a Chicago park, just a few months before I was sworn in. I’m still fighting to end gun violence—for Hadiya & every child who should be safe at a park.

May was a slow reading month for me and it was very intentional. I also reread Metal Slinger to prepare for the new book this month. #booksky #readingwrapup

I will be at one or all of the beaches near me with whatever my body looks like in the the new swimsuits I have but have not worn.

April reading wrap-up 📚🎧 #blackbooksky #booksky

Last night I saw Michael and let me tell you, it felt like I was back in the 80s watching the greatness of MJ in reel time. Tonight I’m at the fancy theater to watch The Devil Wears Prada 2. Just waiting on my food while I sip on this expensive ass Crown Apple and Cranberry juice 🤦🏾‍♀️🤣🤣

Podcast in general is another very over saturated genre. Everyone thinks what they have to say is important. Also, it’s a lot of reused hot topics being overanalyzed.

People are starting to realize that a LOT of athlete podcasts are terrible

My spring break is winding down and I’ve had way too much screen time due to reading and doom scrolling 🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️ But here is another great book I’ve finished this week. Have you read Little Fires Everywhere? I loved the minis series years ago. 📚🎧 #booksky #bookrec

And if you are a black woman, you better have decent insurance or you will sit in pain even longer.

This is a well-documented pattern in medical research and reflects systemic gender bias in pain assessment and treatment.👇

Black women deserve to be heard, protected, and cared for with dignity. The Black maternal health crisis is real, and too many lives are at risk because our healthcare system continues to fail Black mothers. I’ve been working in Congress for nearly a decade to fix it.
