    Heeeeey, Gurrl! We tried to tell them. We tried to tell them! We are still tryin to tell them! Why? Cause WE BE KNOWIN! Yes, yes, Black Women act like they know everything crowed...we hear you!

As we head into the Presidential Election, Senator Kamala Harris is certainly someone who has showed up and showed out, despite the comments of those who may have said it wasn't "her time yet".

  • Too Much & Never Enough

    You know the story! It doesn't matter if you are in work, in a store, our just out in the world living your best life. Black women are constantly bombarded with messages about being "loud" or "too aggressive" or my personal favorite "threatening" *insert eye roll*



    This was a little triggering for me. I know that I am not the only one that's experienced this more times than they can count. How do you handle situations at work when people say that you aren't "approachable"? How do you keep your cool in situations where paternalistic foolishness is aimed your way?
