R Kelly

Posted on 11/16/201906/23/2020 by simplykatricia

Yes. Were their families offered sums of money with a promise that their daughter would be taken care of? Yes. Each woman that had a personal interaction with R. Kelly, had a story to tell. Who am I, or should I ask, who are we as a black culture to not believe in their experience? Within the black culture, we tend to be very suspicious of stories we hear and I don’t know why or when this started.

Self-Care Challenge – Unplug, Unplug, Unplug

Posted on 11/15/201912/27/2019 by simplykatricia

There is a list of things I do on my phone before the final alarm goes off to tell me to get my ass up before I’m late to work. On the weekends or days off, that constant view of social media before wiping the cold out my eyes or emptying my bladder is an issue. Why do we connect to the outside world in this way? It’s a drug, at least I think so. This unplug challenge came at a great time, this weekend I will go silent and do things not connected to a hashtag.

Interesting thoughts about a song written, composed and sung at a time when woman’s rights and the rights of black people were in question. Never mind anyone who “felt” different from what their identity stated on a piece of paper. Looks like I had a reel in draft that never posted. 😬 It’s okay though because when forces beyond you place a pause on an action, it’s meant for a reason. I have a whole teenager and glad to have photos  to reflect on when she was a youngin… back down memory lane.
