Legend, always
Love her conclusion
Love Jennifer Lewis! She’s a queen and she speaks up.
It’s called legacy. What do you want your legacy to be? Suffer in silence is not an option. That’s not what we were born to do. Strength is not measured by brawn.
This was an amazing conversation she had with T.S. Madison! In addition to this, they also had a cussing competition and discussed my favorite Jenifer Lewis after The Princess and the Frog, Jackie’s Back.
Every day should be Jackie Washington day!!
Why are they comparing bombing children in Gaza to a guy who killed a teenager in front of witnesses??
God I love her.
It’s really, really cathartic to see somebody say “I don’t claim to be an expert or a great intellectual, but I’m a person with a conscience and that gives me all the expertise I need to call this out.” So often when you call out what’s happening in Gaza some hasbarist will crow that you can’t speak on that issue because 5000 years of history and have you ever been to Israel and do you condemn Hamas? Having the clarity and the conviction to say “fuck that noise, this is wrong” is insanely powerful. Love her.
I cannot stand people who stand for nothing, I broke up with my ex partially for that. He was a fence sitter on an issue where people losing their homes and their livelihoods. Who tf could be neutral abour such an awful situation?
What does Karmelo Anthony have to do with any of that though? I wonder if she was confusing him with someone else
That’s right
People need to hear this! Hold your celebrities accountable, even if you like them! Especially if you like them! Vague donations or saying things in the past are NOT speaking up!
