I'm with you Jade! I feel a way about them adults playing with the toys.

I'm with y'all about the videos. I removed YouTube including the kids version from my little ones tablet. Now I admit I'm guilty of too much screen time. I'm working on that. 

listen to me...Jade and these songs make my whole damn day! LOL I'm either singing along or cackling but either way...PLEASE KEEP SINGING!!! LOL

do we really want to use Charlamagne...a man who was accused of sexual assault...as an example for anything?

Yes, our culture has it BAD for shaming women for being shaped a certain way and already predicting your future. It really does have a longlasting pyschological effect

My mom didnt want to watch it either and I made her as well. It really is crazy how our older generations don't care to address these types of issues, because there is A LOT of rug sweeping in my family and I think ppl have been conditioned to keep up this bad habit of avoiding the unavoidable

I'm at my desk cracking up...."That boy good"

Jade and Keia continue the celebration of the Black History Year and Women’s History Month with a conversation with CEO of the Museum of Pop Culture (MOPOP) Michele Y. Smith. Sit with us.---Learn More About Michele and MOPOP
