I dont like that most of the wisdom speaking grandfathers and grandmothers that are still around from the BACK BACK days are nearing their end.
I've literally been sitting here watching old interviews from Della Reese, Maya Angelou, Earth, Ruby Dee and etc.
Im grateful that my grandmas are both still here I get so much from talking to them or listening to them speak.
Then you think about these Grandmothers of today and they dont have that THING our grandmothers have/had. Its no surprise that these kids are fucking animals and just have no direction.

Della, Ruby, Eartha :stressed:
Really wish I was connected to my family. I've always wanted helpful figures growing up (and now) outside of my mammy. You're fortunate if you have this.
Toni is amazing. I regret not knowing more about her until recent years.
I love love love Toni Morrison, one of the greatest writers to grace this shitty planet. Audre Lorde is another one of my favorite voices, I revisit this video a lot.
