Happy Tuesday Beautiful People!! I hope so far, so great! Okay so, last week someone sent me a link to Regina King's article in Vibe Magazine. In the article (abi na open letter?) she advised black women to date out of their race. I had read it already but when I did, I took it for what is was - a suggestion and kept it moving. However after the numerous conversations I had with multiple people about it, I knew I wanted to write about it. The question was how? I started off from a defensive angle – Aunty Regina, who asked you??? Do you think it is easy to date … [Read more...]

I am not going to lie, I SLACKED this month! :'( In the beginning of February, I got very sick.
