Unbothered, beautiful, rich black women with trauma free narratives, yes please. Showcasing us in different lights, because we’re multifaceted humans with a spectrum of narratives. A long ways from being pigeonholed as the help. Ain’t no mammies here henny, trust. They’ll buy your life.

A round of applause to Whitley Gilbert, Lisa Turtle, Dionne Davenport and Hillary Banks, for being bad and bougie personified. Style queens who inspire generations. They learned from Dominque Deveraux of course. These characters are intelligent, stylish, possess high self-esteem, and will max out any credit card. Self-assured and inexorable, they had premium standards when it came to suitors. Thank you for your service. Did Ciara Miller miss the memo (read Stop Blanketing Black Women’s Dating Lives)? I digress. Rich black queens on the wall, who is the bougiest of them all? Via: WhitleyFashions, Lark_Voorhies_Fan_Page, Pinterest & Curly Nikki

Which black mom(s) raised you?

Five out of nine of these women were a part of my childhood. Some of them were light hearted and fun loving, others were not to be crossed. Ahem Claire Huxtable and superior Aunt Viv, the original. All of them would curse you out. Trust. Via: DakotaMonroe26

How the elites treat each other. Yeah, I really want to join your trauma bonding, vitriolic, toxic, satanic pedo shit show,

Especially when I’m a fucking Goddess who doesn’t need to summon lesser demonic entities, who were using my abilities to give you all power. Are you niggas slow? Lmk. Remember it can’t be fixed if it’s hidden, most of these people will not be joining us during the ascent to 5D. It’s all happening. Via: The_Fresh_Prince_Forever

An important question for Black History Month, one I’ve ruminated over for years. I’m not even joking, I screenshot this in 2022 and finally have my answer. It was between options C&D for me, because A&B did nothing but waste your time 1995. Don’t even get me started on Nia Long & Will Smith, just don’t.

While Sinclair and Overton were close, I’m going with Whitley and Dwayne, option C. Like, they’re just iconic, even Nikki Minaj references them. They balance each other out and prove true love will always survive the tumult, be it family, classism, or engagements to other people. Which 90’s couple is your favorite?

RIP Quincy Jones

Quincy Jones is the definition of a star and renaissance man. One of the most talented people to ever, ever walk this Earth. The way I sobbed choosing these photos. This man shaped and changed the world, elevating us all to a higher standard of art, be it fashion, film, or music. A full package with personality to boot, the older he got the messier. I’m going to miss his candor, he wasn’t afraid to discuss his ladies man persona, thoughts on current affairs and divulge secrets of the past, giving us nebulous characterizations of other stars. A March Pisces through and through. One of the coolest motherfuckers to ever live. Epitome of black excellence, who contributed sooooooo much it’s astounding. They don’t make em like this anymore. Grateful I got to exist at the same time as you. An icon, a legend that puts most people to shame regarding accomplishments. I’m going to miss you. What a fucking extraordinary life. You earned that rest in peace king, thank you for everything. This makes vile Jann Wenner’s commentary more asinine, a fucking loser with zero music ability. What’s your favorite Quincy creation?

This is childhood. Loved growing up with these 90’s families, portraying the spectrum not stereotypes of blackness. Congratulations to Sheryl Lee Ralph on her Emmy win, seeing her career blossom has been an honor. That being said I would not want to join Moesha’s family, she’s bossy, judgmental, a hypocrite, nosey and has a fresh mouth. Plus she snitched on Miles for getting high. She’s a meddler, she not finna tell me what to do, but she’ll sure try. Not to mention Frank, her dad, is a mess, having an entire love child combined with his rigidness, I’m good. Can you name all these classic shows? Which family is your favorite? Which would you join ? Via: 4EverThrowbacks

Halloween Inspo: Hilary Banks

A carefree black girl. Hilary Banks was a beautiful, rich, fabulous, slutty, successful socialite. An underrated sex positive feminist icon. Sure she was superficial, but nobody loved Hilary more than Hilary meaning she never settled. She didn’t validate herself through men, making them earn it. To embody Ms. Banks played by Karyn Parsons you must have the following: a bowler hat, a standout blazer donned with a brooch or flower for extra points, signature curls, a skirt and a purse. A 90’s queen, that decade was just a vibe. Which Hilary would you base your look on? Via: Fresh Prince Forever
