I just ran across this unpublished post that I wrote on Aug 22, 2022 and still found it to be relevant today… One can say that I've been around the sun and back a few times or another. I may not know everything or much even at all, but there's one thing I've learned for... Continue Reading →
A Good Read: Just As I Am by Cicely Tyson (SPOILER ALERT)
Source Recently I embarked on the memoir of none other than the great Miss Cicely Tyson. If you have not read it then I encourage you to add it to your list. I must admit that I was never what I would consider a Cicely Tyson fan. I had much respect for her acting and... Continue Reading →
Basking in a Black Man’s Joy
