Honorable Shirley Chisholm and Rep. Shelia Jackson-Lee “I would make the point that we are still in the struggle for women’s complete and full rights," said Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas. "Shirley Chisholm was bold in her fight for women’s rights but the rights of all people.” #shirleychisholm #sheilajacksonlee #unbossed #unbought #unboughtandunbossed #catalystforchange #womenvote #govote #govote🇺🇸 #vote #blackwomen #blackhistory #herstory #nationalcongressofblackwomen #ncbwmetrony https://www.instagram.com/p/CD2K9nEBo5_/?igshid=1oog04fd1fthh

When you don't have to add one word of thought to this. Nick Cannon’s response to being dropped by Viacom... “I don’t have to defend myself here, the proof is in the history. I believed that the corporation was becoming more progressive and willing to create helpful spaces and dialogue in these difficult and uncertain times of 2020. Instead they chose to recently ban all advertisement that supported George Floyd and Breonna Taylor who we are all still seeking justice for. I also went as far to reach out to Ms. Shari Redstone, the owner of Viacom, to have a conversation of reconciliation and actually apologize if I said anything that pained or hurt her or her community. Dead Silence! So that’s when I realized they don’t want a conversation or growth, they wanted to put the young negro in his place. They wanted to show me who is boss, hang me out to dry and make an example of anyone who says something they don’t agree with. But like the great Shirley Chisholm, “I am unbossed and unbought and unbothered”. I respectfully stepped away from oppressive corporations in the past. NBC threatened and mistreated me for years, but I was the bigger person and abandoned an 8-figure salary on their number one hit show “Americas Got Talent” and currently stand by my friend and Queen Gabrielle Union in her fight against oppression. Malcolm X said it best, “The media is the most powerful entity on earth, it will have you hating the people being oppressed and loving the people doing the oppressing; making the innocent guilty and the guilty innocent.” My hope and original goal was to use this moment to show healing and acceptance and prayed that Viacom would use their powers for good. Instead I am now receiving death threats, hate messages calling me an ungrateful Nigger and beyond. Viacom’s goal to keep me from providing for my family and lineage will be foiled. They can try to kick me while I’m down or force me to kiss the master’s feet in public for shame and ridicule, but instead I stand firm on my square with my fist in the air repeating my mantra, “You can’t fire a Boss!”. ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾 #Unbothered #Unbossed #Unbought #NickCannon https://www.instagram.com/p/CCrmVFXJp5s/?igshid=d0zusadgrulw

There is a special place in the sweet after life for Black women who create and hold spaces for other Black women; share resources with and educate other Black women; uplift and protect Black women; trust and respect Black women; and love Black women. Challenge yourself to be this kind of Black woman and/or know and grow with these type of Black women. Special s/o to my favorite Black woman, Malty.
