2024 saw my weight remain the same for 10 months, no yo-yoing at all! After losing and keeping off 85 pounds, I was featured on PBS and The Washington Post...My garden is featured in this pic!!

Well, we do know that putting on events is hard and trying to make everyone happy is even harder. I'm rooting for everybody Black, so hopefully they will take the feedback and put on a great event next year...

There's never been ANY era of my life that I have not been fighting white supremacy, in one way or another. However, THIS era differs in that this is the closest I have ever seen wypipo understand that THEY need to fight their cousins...

No, we strategize how to fight THIS stage of white supremacy with the overarching goal always being our liberation...and how we get there with the LEAST loss of life.
