I have spent literally ALL of my life so far in my 20 years of living being the person I felt that I had to be in order for me to get through in life. The educated people on this subject call something like this the “Imposter Syndrome.” I feel like my life isn’t my life, I am not living for me. Who am I living for? I don’t know... maybe that’s why I have always had a careless relationship with death and I would feel like nothing I did matter because in the end my life never felt like it was mine. However, before this gets TOO DARK! if you know what I’m saying... I am trying to become a more “positive” person for lack of better words and now I want to live for me but I don’t know where to begin or what to do. Back to what I was saying, I don’t know who I am. I don’t even know if I love myself. Do other people feel the same way? I always feel like I am that .1%  exception to everything like I am an unrelatable outcast in society. It’s rough but hopefully, I can make this year about finding out who I am and what I want. Am I a 20-year-old having a mid-life identity crisis? Yes lol.

What if Viola Davis and Kerry Washington switched places in How to Get Away with Murder (HTGAWM) and in Scandal? The show Scandal didn’t do as great as HTGAWM... I am curious why? I feel like the targeted audience could have played a role because as I began watching these two shows - I’m deeper into Scandal - all I could think was who are the targeted audiences for these shows? Of course, a lighter black woman, Olivia Pope would be cast as the main lead because the show just wouldn’t be fine with a woman with more melanin. I am not saying it’s bad but I do think there would have been a different outcome of the show. Black and White people can look at Olivia and be like damn she’s hot playing the role of a presidential mistress... BUT! I think the show would have lost viewers had a woman like Viola Davis... maybe even Gabriella Union (only bc she looks young and fine) played the role it would have been a different story. It’s important to know your audience is all I'm saying, and it’s just intriguing to me to consider these things. Next, I wanted to bring up the Jezebel role Kerry Washington is playing... it’s making me feel some type of way (upset). Because in Black TV/Film we see a lot of stereotypes of women. Jezebel being the top, followed by the Angry Black Woman and the Strong Black Woman Persona, I guess I could save those for another day to discuss.
