Maiysha, I really don’t have the energy to comment these days, because really... So just to say just that we still here and the time, the energy, warmth and expertise you bring to the Glow Up make a difference in these dark days! I won’t be buying Soulcare cos I’m too invested in my current skincare line and it’s…

First of all, shout out to you for blessing us with all this beauty on a gloomy Tuesday! I’m primarily referring to this selfie you’re serving, but of course my compliment includes the gorgeous black beauties on your walls.

Every time a Black woman calls herself a hurricane, the ancestors celebrate.  If only all of us could believe in our divinity....

Amanda Gorman stole the whole damn show for me.   That was magical.

Literally the only thing worth watching is the rising of Black women at the bowl. I haven’t watched a super bowl in years, especially  during a damn pandemic, America is silly as fuck.

I cannot tell you how meaningful this is to me as a dark-skinned, continental African woman. Two accomplished, light-skinned African-American/Black American women from the U.S. in celebratory and thoughtful discussion about images in which they see themselves as a part of me is a reversal of the typical narrative-both…

Extremely Online Twits are still all about $2k checks regardless of actual logic. It’s like they all forget 3rd grade math. Not that we shouldn’t get a $2k check but dam, living such an all or nothing existence must be very tiring.

This again? I thought the consensus was that the Dems really meant $2000 total all along, and that the first $600 was always meant to be part of the deal so the $1400 checks being promised now add up to $2000. And when people asked why they didn’t just say that all along, they were told not to complain because somethin…

Now, do one more thing:

All he needs to do is pull himself up by his bootstraps and a house/home/apartment will magically appear..

At least that’s the line most of the GOP keep using.. The political equivalent of clicking your heels three times and saying “There is no place like home...!”

May an old white woman thank you for pointing out Rep. Lee’s tribute to Shirley Chisholm? Because it is perfect and absolutely wrecking me.

Michelle is stunning. Hot damn. What do you call that look... regal chic? 

Madam VP Harris (God that feels good to say) was on point in every way. And of course Michelle Obama was bringing the class that was so missing in the WH for the last 4 years.

Of course, NOW I’m crying! The women and their statements of strength and fuck y’all in the most fashionable way imaginable.

Michelle Obama’s outfit left me speechless. Ok so maybe I stood up and shouted “God damn!” at the TV, but LOOK AT THAT ENSEMBLE! Freaking gorgeous. 

I AM GETTING EMOTIONAL. 

Hugh Grant is married. Why is retweeting a big deal? He and Liz Hurley are best friends, and both have said that in multiple interviews. Grant is her son’s godfather.

There are the obvious reasons to admire the ubiquitous Maya Angelou but I cherish the fact that she was so many things, did so many things and accomplished a stunning amount of things. She was bursting with Black girl magic. As a woman who could not see herself in one, maybe two jobs or on one career path for a…

I hope you will decide to keep your doll based on her meaning for you and for her sentimental value. Enjoy your Maya Angelou doll!

Beckwith’s curations for MCAChicago have been ex.em.pla.ry. Let’s hope her impact remains strong here (the Chicago art world isn’t immune to ‘whitelash’) and Guggenheim finally brings us some diversity south of 96th.
