Love & Hip Hop don’t have nothing on the Original black Hollywood!!! In the Memoir Cicely Tyson – JUST AS I AM, This Legend spills all the tea!! And the Tea is Piping Hot!!!! A real eye opener!!

Pic from :  Philadelphia Sun

Like many Americans, I was saddened by the passing away of one of black Hollywood’s legends, Cicely Tyson. When I found out how old she was when she took her last breath, I thought I’d read ( well, listen to her book, I love audible!) her Memoir. I wanted to learn how she was able to stay so healthy for so many years. As a nurse who works on a long-term care/rehab unit, I’m surrounded by people 40 to 7O+ years old, who suffer from diverse ailments. Many have dementia; some cannot walk or take care of their basic daily living activities.

To learn that this icon was still doing movies at 90, I wanted to learn her secret. In the  Cicely Tyson memoir – JUST AS AM – Sis, as her friends call her, gives us that and sooooooo much more. OMG, this lady has truly lived. I had no idea of how much drama surrounded her life. I listened to the book on audible, it’s 16 hours long and in her own voice at times – Trust me, you will not be able to stop listening.  

Now I’m not going to spoil the book for you, but did you know the Cicely Tyson was married to the legendary Miles Davis?! Yasss, they were one of the power couples in their time!

Miles Dewey Davis III ) was an American trumpeter, bandleader, and composer. He is among the most influential and acclaimed figures in the history of jazz and 20th-century music. Davis adopted a variety of musical directions in a five-decade career that kept him at the forefront of many major stylistic developments in jazz. (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia/ Ruhlmann, William. “Miles Davis Biography”. AllMusic. Archived from the original on June 21, 2016. Retrieved June 16, 2016.)

In this Memoir, I was shocked at how transparent The queen was about their relationship; he was not very good to our Cicely. Again, I’m not going to give up all of the juicy details about the book, but dig this, Miles Davis died of HIV and was rumored to have had an affair with his male hairdresser…………while he was married to the Legendary Cicely Tyson!!! Listennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn, Love and Hip Hop don’t have nothing on this Memoir!! You have to read or listen to it yourself, get it now!!!!

BLACK MEDIA COMES TO KIRK FRANKLIN’S DEFENSE #LOVE

Family business is family business!! Check out how black men, in black media showed up for Kirk Franklin after his son tried to out him on social media. What are your thoughts? leave a comment, let’s talk about it.

Pedophiles in Hollywood YOUR TIME IS UP!! #JUSTICEFORRAZB

I’m so proud of Raz B for continuing to tell his truth about being molested. The men who he says raped him continue to make money in the industry!! Well, their days are numbered- TIME UP!!! If we demand justice for women who have been sexually violated, then we must do the same for our men!!

When another black male sexually assaults a black male, the shame is so devastating many victims never say anything. They will go to their graves, keeping the secret and consequently protecting the predator, which gives the predator a chance to continue hurting others. I believe that many young black men who are violated this way become gang bangers and killers. We wonder why it is so easy for a black man to kill another black man; I believe that some of them see the person who defiled them, and in others, they see the men that did not protect them – And as we all know, Hurt People – Hurt People!!!

No longer will we continue to re-victimize the victims, no longer will we allow sexual predators to hide behind the veil of the victim’s shame. What goes on in the dark always comes into the Light!!!

Sexual Predators – YOUR TIME IS UP!!! #JUSTICEFORRAZB!

I want to say, Thank you to Jason Lee of Hollywood Unlock for giving RAZ B a platform to be free to tell his truth and encouraging him to stop protecting his rapists so that he can help other victims. When victims of such crimes feel comfortable telling their truth, I believe that these types of crimes will happen less often and that the victims of these crimes will get justice and get the help they need to heal.

The Bachelor’s Matt James Decision Examined

Matt James – Silly Rabbit, Tricks are for Kids!!

Let’s jump right into it. On the after show of the Bachelor it is revealed that Matt James and Rachel KirkConnell  are no longer together. Matt says he broke up with her because she “ …..did not understand his blackness”!  huh, mic drop!!

Matt, clearly bro, you don’t fully understand your “blackness”. How is it than in 2021 the first black man that goes on the bachelor, choose a woman who has proven to be racially insensitive, Over 2 beautiful black women.

 For those of you who are not aware, Rachel KirkConnel, the woman that Matt James chose to be his partner,   has pics of her  that surfaced at an antebellum Southern-themed party on social media. There were also allegations that she bullied some of her high school friends for dating black guys.

Well James clearly you don’t understand the impact that your choice had on black women and little black girls. Bro, you are on television, do you understand the powerful influence that the media has on all of us? But once again black women were made to feel devalued by a black man.  This is why you have black women with long blond hair and blue contact lenses, trying to be what they feel is attractive to black men.  Here was your chance to show love to the most disrespected women on the earth.  But you dropped the ball; And don’t tell me about your mission to find true love, you slept with three different women in three days. Matt, that is not what love looks like. Those women told you they had fallen in love with you, and you toyed with their emotions! In the end, you couldn’t even put a ring on it’!! Ef outta here!!! ……..Matt James, ……..silly rabbit, tricks are for kids!!!!

I want to say kudos to The Bachelorette for examining there racially insensitive history and doing what Matt  James couldn’t, by choosing a Michelle Young, a black woman,  to be the star of the shows 18th season!! I will be watching that show!!! Michelle Young is the runner-up in James Matt season of the bachelor.
