I met the twin’s dad (TD) in July of 2016 at my job. We worked in the same field for the Federal Government. I had a boyfriend at the time who is now my ex, and I was expecting a platonic working relationship with TD. I happened to mention to TD that I was going to […]
Sadly in this world a stigma exists which is to me a kind of fear mixed with superstition – a wanting to hold the stigmatized person at arms-length or even ostracize them for fear of having whatever “tainted them” rub off on you.

Hollywood actress Ashley Judd has been known for her vocal support of abortion, but her more recent rhetoric is even more troubling to me because I was conceived in rape and also became pregnant with my now 2-year-old when I was gang-raped,.

I wish every Black American would have a chance to live overseas. I have lived in Africa, Germany, Dubai and in many Caribbean Countries. America with all its flaws is indeed the greatest country on Earth, because in the U.S. you can achieve anything if you are willing to educate yourself, work hard and have […]
