    Unpaid internships in creative fields are why those creative fields end up being saturated with privileged white folks who later say they “can’t find” diverse candidates.

    Wow this Wu-Tang secret album thing sucks. RZA wants to be a brand and the group wants to be a hip hop legacy.

    Wayment. DJ Mathematics made the “W” and RZA paid him $400 and now it’s being used in merchandising and no one went back to get him whole? 🧐

    Damn. ODB’s mom said she didn’t cry when her son died because she knew she’d see him again. Then she kinda shrugged with a knowing confidence. She said she cried when he was living because she worried.

    Going to a PWI as a POC is literally serving on a diversity panel every damn month; it's annoying. Like, let my black ass talk about climate change or something.

    At a panel I got invite to speak on, this White woman asked me why aren't Black people often found speaking on panels such as the one I was there for and my response simple: you dont even think about inviting us.

    This. Please. It's the whole point of representation. Let's see diverse people doing "normal" things to drive home the point.

    This. I've been asked to be a part of panels solely for this reason. But never for any other reason.

    Yes, this. This is a point that needs far more attention than it gets these days.

    When you listen to the RZA talk about the 5 percenter ethos it’s almost convincing. Almost. Still v hotep.

    Ciara looks fantastic. This is the best level up ever. She’s genuinely happy and loved and did the work. Also this new “super rich woman” steeze she’s been on? More please.
