I’ve been in the UK for a while now and honestly, I am still adjusting and learning. In many ways, the things I was lauded for in the USA: my directness, my friendliness, my commitment, and even just being a passionate person are things I am disliked for & punished for here.

Most of the friends I have made in London are ethnic minorities and very few were even born or raised in the UK. British people do not like me very much because British people do not like directness, they prefer passive communication. Directness is too much.

It’s been a really difficult pill to swallow that the sort of a “go-getter” attitude, the passion for work, the directness and even the problem solving skills that would get me promoted in the US have actively hurt my career in the UK.

In order to survive and thrive in the UK, I find myself having to really push down key aspects of who I am. I have to talk in convoluted riddles b/c being “too direct” is problematic. Honesty is problematic. Passion is problematic. Wanting better is seen as a character flaw.

The UK was just found to be one of the most miserable places in the world. I think we are right after Uzbekistan. No wonder, tbh. It does not surprise me at all. But it does make me a bit sad.

Beyoncé tells GQ why she named her album ‘COWBOY CARTER’ and not ‘COWGIRL CARTER’: “I wanted everyone to take a minute to research on the word ‘cowboy.’ History is often told by the victors. And American history? It’s been rewritten endlessly. Up to a quarter of all cowboys were

The system we live in forces creative people to work non creative jobs for survival. Social Media allows creative people to express their creativity. Thank you to the creators.

In a 🌍, an industry, where representation matters, today your girl will make history as the first woman of colour to EVER have her play on the main stage of @the_globe AND be in it! Why is this important? Because one of the last people to do this, was...Mr William Shakespeare

🙏🏿Take the time to watch this in honor of #MichaelaDePrince. Though she grew up in the ashes of unimaginable horror, pain, & tragedy, like dust she rose. Fo her life to end so abruptly at the age of 29 is heart wrenching. How can life be so cruel!😔💔💔😞
