I’ve been lucky to have a great reunion. My mom adopted me back, about 20 years into reunion.

Oh we loved listening to her when my kids were little. ❤️
You likely grew up with many of her songs, the call and response inspired by the long tradition of communal Black music (gift link)

Performing and recording, she transformed what was seen as a marginal genre in the music industry into a celebration of shared humanity.

Imma need some of you to think about thriving out of spite. I had big plans for 2025 and I’m definitely not gonna pre-derail them for likes of Elin and Tromp. I’m getting more involved. Loving harder. Writing hornier. Having more fun. I’m gonna be so kind to my neighbors, bitch.

#Adoption is not a substitute for #abortion. While it may provide a home, it doesn’t erase the trauma of separation or the challenges #adoptees face, even in so-called “good adoptions.” Adoption should be a last resort, not a replacement for reproductive care or influenced by financial incentives.
