Whiteness ALL around, and it’s so normal and natural that no one bats an eye.
This is everyday life in America for Black folks. 👏🏾 Every. 👏🏾 Single. 👏🏾 Day. Even during the holidays! 💫
So, Merry Christmas, you filthy animals!

So, I intentionally started listing the ones I loved but most of my colleagues hadn’t seen them or even heard of these movies. And I literally had to slam my hand on the table and fight to get one of them I mentioned added to the 3-list selection.

And as I sat around listening to my colleagues list off all these Christmas movies that I knew and grew up watching, realizing they are all White (most of em without a SPEC of color in them!)—but they’re classics, right? Fine.

This year at work, for fun and good cheer, each department was tasked with listing 3 Christmas movies they’d be willing to portray.

“Why a BLACK Christmas movie list, Verde? Why can’t it just be a Christmas movie list?”

That’s why I’m happy to be keeping it chill. Doing some rest and recovery. Filling up my cup so I can continue to do what it is I am here to do.

I started my year off in Southeast Asia where, due to the time difference, was able to celebrate my birthday for 48 hours! It was AH-MAZING! Carmen created an amazing itinerary where we did a layover in Tawain.

Shout out to one of my favorite poets, Nikki Giovanni. It’s been 1 year since her transition into the ancestral realm.
