Black people so funny. I’m in the checkout & the girl asked for my ID for the red wine. Why the man behind me bust out & said “that girl buying 2 roasts and potatoes, she old enough to drink”
One thing about black creatives- we just don’t slap shit together and put it out there.
A lot of us create the best quality we can, the FIRST time before putting a thing out.
We don’t get as much grace as our counterparts, so it’s gotta be done well from the jump.
nudge people towards their dreams.
if someone timidly reveals a big dream or ambition that they think others might scoff at, throw sunlight and water on it. encourage them to explore it. listen. ask them to say more. help them crystalize the idea. gently nudge them towards it.
