Bonus #44: "Dr. Bryant."
I am a dual degreed Black woman. I am actively working on degree #3 (Nursing) and #4 (as quiet as it's kept). There is something insidious about what Cheyenne Bryant has done and that cannot be excused. Dr. Raquel Martin called her on her ethics and other questionable behavior regarding her…

S6.3: Madam Vice President Told Yo' ASS!

TW: WM on WM crime I am neither celebrating nor mourning. I do not give empathy to my oppressors. “The function, the very serious function of racism is distraction. It keeps you from doing your work. It keeps you explaining, over and over again, your reason for being. Somebody says you have no...

I am of the mind there is an 'acceptable' size that a Black woman can be--and don't let her be ambitious on top of all that! And for all her successes, it would seem not even Beyonce can escape that. I refuse to do WFW (White Folks Work) for them...never. "You know you that bitch when you cause…
