Tax targeting Gullah-Geechee landowners on Sapelo Island could force land loss The effort to reassess the Hogg Hummock property is the latest move that could force Gullah-Geechee descendants from Georgia island.

Gullah-Geechee descendants on Sapelo Island may be facing a massive property tax increase that could open the doors for developers to turn the island into a vacation spot for the rich

A meeting for property owners to give feedback is scheduled for today

Itโ€™s Yuna for me. Loved her since 2010, then her 2012 EP dropped. I believe most people know her only as the girl on that Ursher song.

Same for me. I lost my breath when that baby said that.

Off topic, but I can't wait for your commentary on episodes 3 and 4 of Love Con Revenge on Netflix. I'll be checking YouTube!!

Yes, it is. Saw it again last night at the cinema.

Sugarcane burning is a plague on these Black Floridians โ€œI like to call it 'structured' racism.โ€

Today I learned that when sugarcane farmers burn their fields, a โ€œblack snowโ€ falls for months on communities downwind. Under FL law, burns are prohibited when the wind is blowing into wealthy, white neighborhoods. Theyโ€™re only allowed when itโ€™s blowing into poor, majority black areas.

I did that with my curly "waterfall" pieces. Cut them right out and kept my medium knotless.

I took an anti-anxiety med and tried to sleep at 1am. At 3am, I went online and canceled my vacation reservations. I'm spiraling.

I hope things get better.

There are joyful moments, too. But, yes, prepare for tears and rage.

I tuned in expecting a ballroom extravaganza. Two minutes in and I am weeping. F**k bigots everywhere! She deserved to live. To have her partner, family, car and career. ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ

My sister Jonovia and mother Dominique produced this pivotal and important documentary, Iโ€™m Your Venus, directed by Kim Reed.

Oh, I totally got that. I apologize if I wasn't clear. I want my six-year old self in my adult body. My power puffs on the sides of my hair. My dimples. But my adult frame. It reminds me that I carry me wherever I go. Your art is amazing.

Bookmarking! I've always wanted an illustration of my 6 year-old self inked on my arm. Your aesthetic suits me perfectly. Adorbs!

Yes! The whole thing! The way I ran through this album all day, every day for months. Res, Luna, Les Nubians and Floetry comprised my life soundtrack.
