It’s been a year guys. Let’s try to get something out of it. Like anyone else who has been fortunate enough to live through 2020, I am still in shock of what the last year has brought.

Since VICE decided to ultimately not publish I decided to publish it here.* Not too long ago Kanye West shocked fans, Republicans, the black community, and the entire pop culture world when he tweeted a

Maybe this is a unique story or maybe it’s just another path of a girl learning things in her 20s. This time last year I felt like I was on top of the world. I was traveling with my best friend in China, just got a raise and a good review at work, and the relationship between the guy I was seeing was growing stronger. But 365 days later, none of those things would be relevant or prepare me for what was to come.

The 25-year-old 'Atlanta' writer/producer Stefani Robinson gives her advice on how to break into the business.

Today marks one of the biggest days for sports fans and maybe even one of the biggest days in American culture.

I truly enjoyed everything about the big game whether it be scarfing down nachos with my family, shushing others to hear the commercials or rooting for the Steelers to get their fifth ring.

Spotlighting the Senate’s rising stars Kamala Harris and Cory Booker who also happen to be showing their #blackgirlmagic and #blackboyjoy During Black History Month its seems that we tend to recognize the same individuals from the past (Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Rosa Parks, Harriet Tubman, Fredrick Douglass and you know the rest.)
