Say what you want, but in 1996, Foxy Brown did a WHOLE ‘lot for this brown girl’s self-reflection. 20 years later and I still love her! Say something

Can’t get enough… Photo by the great and dear @collierschorrstudio. In today’s Times with reflections, including this one by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie: “She had rhythm, a flow and swerve, hands slicing air, body weight moving from foot to foot, a beautiful rhythm.”

In 2013, I began working on #PrettyPeriod and in so doing, I had the privilege of meeting and connecting with hundreds of Black women and girls all over the world, many of whom allowed me to have them photographed. That year, I met a woman named Trisheena, who gave me permission to include photographs of her two daughters, Sasha Ade and Breyan, then 16 months and 4 respectively. Three+ years later, for Breyan’s 8th birthday, Mama gathered her besties, put them in #ProfessionalBlackGirl t-shirts and had a professional photo shoot!
It’s Breyan’s birthday, but it is me who received the gift. Thank you, Trisheena, for allowing me love on your girls, even if from a distance.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRE!! You are such an amazing and beautiful #ProfessionalBlackGirl! ❤️

How perfect is this? #PrettyPeriod
“A Day in the Life of Seneca Village: We Wore More Than Shackles”
I Pledge Allegiance to FREEDOM. I place my musket to my heart and declare that I did not come this far through the savagery to give up my soul now. Emancipate me and I will fight for my dignity. I was, I am, I will forever be the magic you want to own.

This is the first time in my life that I truly feel comfortable in my own skin. I love my browness and natural curves. No one can steal my light.
