I have a few Black people I love so much that I want to put them on my arm. It's Black History Month and the crazy thing is that these people are never honored in the way I would.  I set out to do just that! I hope you guys enjoy and learn a few things you may not have known.  Shouts out to my friends that helped me with this episode via acting!

We all lose in life at one point or another. But losing loved ones is a different type of loss altogether. This person you love is in your vicinity every time you want to see them or whenever you visit certain functions and out of nowhere they are gone. Literally. How do we as humans cope with loss?  We all cope differently, so lets use my four friends here as a small study into the human mind and how we deal with loss. 

P.S. Happy Birthday Pops! #RIPDad

The George Floyd Protests happened months ago during a global pandemic while civil unrest gripped the entire world via our public servants.  George, and so many other black people have died at the hands of Police and understandably our people want not only answers but REAL change! This is part 2 of my personal friends who took part in the protests sharing their stories and eye witness accounts of one of the hugest protests in the world.

About 2010 to 2012 I noticed a vast amount of my friends permanently leaving our city and I wondered why. Chicago was a vastly changing place but not for the better so I understood but it didn't make me any less curious why they left. I set out to find out and this is what I came up with.

 @N_Michelle (On Instagram) is a woman who has always perceived herself to be a person with a bright future and an awesome personality but there was something in the way of her happiness. When many feel doomed to their circumstances or a victim of fate Nadra is one to take her life and image in her own hands.  Over a year ago she had weight loss surgery and hasn't looked back since! The only thing more amazing than the photos, is her unique story! Follow along as this will be a two-parter! 

The world was taken by storm by protests globally after a video surfaced of a black man getting apprehended by the police that died on camera. His name was George Floyd and he died needlessly  while bystanders filmed it with their phones as he was handcuffed and suffocated by restricting his airway for over 9 minutes! The protests enveloped America and the world faster than COVID 19 and many people's lives were changed overnight! These interviews are from people I know personally that took part in the protests in different cities from Minneapolis to New York. These stories will speak volumes about the truth!
