Now tell me who's making love, to your old lady, while you is out making love?
Wives who have boyfriends tend to not call.
Again, not that I want to figure it out in real life…but I just don’t understand the logistics of “it’s morning, I know you’ve gotta hurry back home to face your wife”.

If it takes me 38 minutes to make a store run for something my wife has determined takes 34 minutes, my phone is ringing.

*cues Atlantic Starr's Secret Lovers*

🎶Is this cruel
Or do we care?
Can they tell
What's in our minds
Maybe they've had secret lovers
All of the time🎵

I never listen to "Congratulations" just because, or else I'll automatically be sad & depressed. Like, the HEARTBREAK! I be feeling like throwing up from ppl's pain. But gawd, it's a perfect song & video.

I can watch & listen to "Thriller" any time of the year (all year long), bc it's a masterpiece. But it truly comes alive during Halloween – the season it was born for.

FIN/ On October 5, 2005, Rosa Parks made her transition. She was the first woman to lie in honor in the Capitol Rotunda. In 2013, her statue was added to Statuary Hall in the US Capitol, the first African American woman so honored.

Rest in peace, power and paradise, Queen.

The WPC printed flyers and brochures, phoned potential supporters, and created carpools, marking the beginning of the 381-day Montgomery Bus Boycott. NOT A SINGLE BLACK PERSON RODE THE BUS. Despite coming close to bankruptcy, it was SCOTUS that declared bus segregation unconstitutional in 1957.

Parks called local NAACP president E.D. Nixon + told him she was arrested. Within hours, the Women’s Political Council (WPC)—which was formed in 1946 by civil rights icon Jo Ann Robinson -- to address the grievances of Black bus riders -- sprang into action. Black women ALWAYS lead the way.

Mrs. Parks put her life on the line investigating lynchings and the rape of Black women. The case of Mrs. Taylor, who was raped by six white men on her way home from church, was particularly "gutting" for her. The book "At the Dark End of the Street" by Danielle McGuire is an excellent history.

Before her arrest, Mrs. Parks was THE best investigator for the NAACP, focusing on racial and sexual violence esp the rape of Black women. She investigated and elevated the cases of the 1944 gang rape of Mrs. Recy Taylor and the Scottsboro Boys who were wrongly convicted of rape.

Nor was Mrs. Parks the first to fight discrimination on public transit. Among others, Claudette Colvin (March 1955) JoAnn Robinson (1949) and Ida B. Wells-Barnett (1884) did the same in addition to Mrs. Parks. Black women have BEEN leading the fight for justice.

The erroneous view about Mrs. Parks is she was an old, tired seamstress who refused to move because she was . . . old and tired. Nothing could be further from the truth. "The Rebellious Life of Rosa Parks" clearly illustrate how Mrs. Parks lived a life of fight and revolution.

🧵THREAD On December 1, 1955 secretary, investigator and founder of Alabama's NAACP Rosa Parks was arrested for refusing to give up her seat to a white passenger in Montgomery. This is often considered the start of the modern civil rights movement.

Don't know about Rosa Parks?

Glad you asked.
