Meaning, Cooperative Economics
“We have to be accountable for the state of our race. Our bondage and our battle is economic. We’re not slaves, but servants. We have to spend more time at economic conferences, be producers, and provide jobs. The answer is economic self-sufficiency.”

“The American black man should be focusing his every effort toward building his own businesses, and decent homes for himself. As other ethnic groups have done, let the black people, wherever possible, however possible, patronize their own kind, hire their own kind, and start in some ways to build up the race’s ability to do for itself by...

I hate losing things...
The freakin ring my bff gave me earlier this year fell down the damn drain.
It was attainable, and I had my uncle try to get it, but then it just fell all the way down.
I should’ve used a hanger or something and tried again myself. Don’t you hate how you start coming up with all these solutions AFTER the fact??
Maybe he’ll open the pipe…

Christmas
def doesn’t feel the same anymore. Yes, I go see family, and maybe a few gifts, and have some great food depending on where I go…but other than that, just another day. Even with my birthday just 3 days before, the magic seemed to last up until this day and through.
Of course this “magic” was more so when I was younger, when I would browse through the Toys R’ Us...

Upset and awake
If I could go back to DC right now, I would.
Got into a big argument w/my aunt over the phone right before heading to the club.
It’s honestly too much to explain right now.
CLub was poppin as far as music and people, but I, myself didn’t have a good enough time.
I still have this damn wristband on.
There’s no real room for me here anymore, NY. And that’s fine....

Natural Hair: To @shalomandamour and the rest of...
Hey, I noticed a few of your hair posts, just haven’t gotten the chance to respond until now.
I agree that we should rock whatever is most comfortable to us. We’re beautiful black women, probably the most diverse women on the planet, and we do what we do well.
The whole perm v. natural hair debate is kind of tricky for some though. As a female who used to rock extensions,...

What the HELL am I doing for my 21st birthday???
December 22nd.
It’s two days away.
And I have zero plans.
Usually, once December hits, I’m all into it, countdowns and all that. But finals season took a major toll on me this time around. And in general, this semester has been draining in all aspects. Part of me wants to go out and celebrate all night long, like the Lionel Richie song. However, another part of me just...

Google is...
The devil.
You can look up any and everything and just start diagnosing yourself with random things.
Solve a problem in a few page searches. Figure out how to follow your dreams in one click. Analyze everything about a current situation.
Nothing that instant can possibly be THAT good…
…Right?
I'm sorry...
For putting certain things out there like that. I really am. It’s just how I deal. I used to write…but now I Tumble.

In my Advanced TV Production class this semester, we’ve been working on four episodes for our own web-series. The class was split into four groups, and my group was in charge of Episode 2.
So, these past few months have been spent a great deal on these projects. From storyboarding, to shooting, to editing.
My role was basically as producer since my...
