I am the stereotypical private school black girl and it is in turn both a blessing and a curse. I have always grown up in more affluent areas and attended private schools that cost more than a minimum wage yearly salary. This has always been life as I know it and I hope many of […]
A BHM BOOK REVIEW.
Reading is to me not just a school requirement, but rather, an exploration. A novel being the “time machine” and reading being the key to this machine that allows you to travel. To travel with the characters and themes of the book, I feel as though you must not only read the words, but feel […]
OUT OF THIS WORLD CIVIC ISSUE
Each year the United States of America allocates billions of dollars to spend on various research. Healthcare, education and environment reach the top of that list, but topics such as UFOs and other space phenomena are additionally granted funds. To most Americans, UFOs, BigFoot and the chupacabra all fall under the […]
#MeToo.
Fourteen years ago activist Tarana Bourke created a global conversation supporting the mental and physical health of young minority women who faced – and are still facing, sexual harassment and abuse. Her movement labeled the ‘#MeToo’ movement has grown beyond women of color and has become a central force in the modern-day feminist movement. She […]
BLACK ENTREPRENEURS. BLACK HISTORY MONTH.
I have always loved small businesses and entrepreneurial content services. I appreciate the way in which small businesses often help our immediate communities and bring a more personalized feel to the service that you are provided.

There is no better satisfaction than being able to cross an item off a list, place a check mark in an empty box and celebrate finally reaching a goal. Setting a goal is your way of telling yourself “it may not be right now, but I can do this!”. Throughout high school I tried every […]

SWIPING RIGHT WHEN YOUR LOVE LIFE GOES LEFT.
Tinder. Baes. Unfortunately, I am amongst the many who are banned from tinder. Apparently soliciting money from old men is against their terms of services and well… guilty as charged. However, during my brief stay in the tinder world I learned a lot about myself and the app. #1. I am actually swiping left […]
STREAM OF CONSCIOUS
Whenever our class was down in high school my English teacher made us write a stream of consciousness for ten minutes. These were usually to get whatever was bringing us so down off of our minds. Lately, I’ve been in a kind of funk. I think. it may be a mix of seasonal depression, too […]
