One of the faces of the power pushers. Phil Knight, owner of Nike, upped his prior $2M donation to Republicans in the last 2 elections to $3M this year. Guess he figured they needed more help. Maybe there should be a bonfire of worn Nikes by all the hardworking ppl, celebs & athletes. Just do it!

CBS, the podium from which venerated newsers Edward R. Murrow & Walter Cronkite spoke and all of America listened, secure in the honor of these anchors and the station itself, has been sullied, polluted, infiltrated, taken over by right-leaning owners. MAGAts are everywhere. The great eye is closing

I love this man so much! Fighting fire with a blowtorch...making it hotter for trumpers every day. Hold the ketchup, pass the hair gel!

Thank you to the staff at the historic King Manor Museum in Jamaica, the ppl who attended and Black Girl Magic wines for sponsoring the social Q&A afterwards. Saturday's book presentation of "First in the House" was a success. I'm available for schools, libraries, senior ctrs, etc. to do an event!

If anyone wants to enjoy a free family day in Queens, come to King Manor Museum in Jamaica, NY on Saturday. I'll be in the main dining hall doing a book presentation for "First in the House" starting at 1p. Signed copies will be available for purchase but all events are free. It should be fun 4 all!

I had the pleasure of sharing a Summer afternoon on the rooftop of Avenida in NYC on Tuesday with current TTE client Lyon Beckwith and former TTE client Markuann Smith, one of the exec prods of "Godfather of Harlem". Lots of industry talk and NY energy! Business, pleasure and time well spent!

Hi everyone, Please pardon my absence. I've been busily putting things in place to make the push to get the book publicized. Here is one of the events I'm hosting this week.
Thank you Blue Sky members. I can feel your support.

So, on the first day of Black History Month, this came! "First in the House" is the story of his improbable rise from enslavement to Congress. It's a powerful and inspiring look into the Life of a man who made and changed history. In these times of book banning and alternative history, lean forward!

Remembering you on your birthday as I do every day. Missing our deep conversations, our shared social viewpoints, your sweet voice, the beautiful energy which was you. Thank you for a friendship which blossomed into a loving relationship with no boundaries or conditions. #missyou #capricorngirls
