Help Me Help You Help Yourself x JusTeah
Sooooo, instead of bashing my generation like I usually do, I’m going to rant about something else that grinds my freaking gears….the government and the NON-assistance it provides. I can’t for the life of me understand why a single parent who goes to work EVERY day, 40 hours a week is denied access to additional assistance to make ends meet,…
Worthy Cause x Ms. Cleaver
Every so often, I find a cause worth fighting for. Something interesting enough for me to become passionate about. To all of us nappy with coarse roots, mahogany skin, and wickedly beautiful fetishes for anything that speaks to progression, this film will be created with us in mind.The following clip is a preview for a film in the making that…
Party Animals x Ms. Jones
I’m sure absolutely everyone loves to have a good time! It’s great to have the drinks flowing and good music playing and tag your “fun” along, right? But is there ever a point when kicking it every single day of every weekend is just too much? I understand that we adults work very hard and deserve to play even harder,…
Race Relations x JusTeah
“It is night. I am walking down the street with my purse and my young son. I am approached by three black boys in hoodies. Am I afraid? Am I more afraid than I’d be if I were approached by three white boys with surfer hair and Abercrombie rugbies? I might be more afraid. I might, whether I like it…
Drama. Drama. Drama. x Ms. Cleaver
Remember this? Black women have gone down in history as three things in most uneducated individual’s eyes, and that is: angry, strong, and combative. Although we all know that we are worth more and capable of being more than these things to each other, our families, and our friends….let’s face it, there is always that one bitch that is one…
Elle Varner Needs a Refill
Last night @ShawnyRene A.K.A Ms. Cleaver called into #SAT20s to do what she does and introduce us to new tunes. She lives in the ATL and gets to hear an earful before it ever reaches us here in the midwest. She felt it a personal duty to debut a personal favorite of hers that may be old to some and…
Guest Host on #SAT20s
Next week on #SAT20s we’ll be discussing baby mama drama! We need a man who has a child or a woman who has experience with the subject. That could mean you have friends with kids, you have dealt with a man with kids, or you yourself are a mother. We would like for you to live in the Columbus area…
Not Again…. x Ms. Jones
On Friday, our favorite pair of legs better known as JusTeah (@ican_only_be_me), posted about the unfortunate and tragic Trayvon Martin situation. I won’t rant and rave about the situation because I am just simply at a loss for words. There are plenty of people trying to avoid making the murder of Trayvon Martin a “race” issue. However, we ALL know…
Stand Your Ground x JusTeah
“A citizen doesn’t have to retreat before using deadly force against an attacker”. This is what the “Stand Your Ground” law is defined as, a law that is active in some shape or form in over 30 states across the country, one state being Florida. A law that could serve as the primary defense and prevent a shooter from being…
Riding With Training Wheels…Literally x Ms. Cleaver
I often go days without bronzer or mascara and even a week rocking natural curls in my hair, and think to myself that at those moments… I am being the liberalist I always thought I would be. When I buy whole wheat pasta and walk barefoot to the mailbox while at my parents’ home, a part of me feels ‘free’…
