I truly wish kamala harris had won 😥

I went to your site and all I saw was your tote bags for sale.

Abraham lincoln was a conservitard / republikkkan so it woulda been in his nature to be ethnicist.

Im glad the truth about him is commin to light.

New subbie...you have a regal presence and a great delivery.

Oh dear... I should've known. Thanks for sharing, I guess ole Dinah was a screamer. Lord help us.

You’re a beautiful intelligent lady! How do you manage to knit and talk?

Very deep poem and true

Crochet and our history, my JAM! And I'm very sure that Thomas Sims is a relative of mine. My family's last name is Sims and my grandfather was born in Rome, Georgia in the late 1800's. His middle name was Thomas.

NOTE: I searched online and the name Kenya Brantley showed up. Not sure if she is the original author, but the poem is in its entirety. I wrote it down so I will never forget it. Many thanks for doing this for us and please continue to do what you do.

OMG!!! You’re so amazingly sexy!!! We need more sisters like this…

Queen I appreciate your poem, absolutely beautiful . I’m a 56yr old black man who was raised by strong black women in my childhood. My grandmother, aunts, and other black women taught me love, compassion, empathy, and discipline. The black men in my life taught me how and what I needed to do to be a man. But the black women taught me what made me a whole person. I will love, respect and cherish black women until my dying breath. Thank you for all you do black women. Don’t give up on us you’re our backbone, we’re the muscle. As we all know muscle without a backbone can’t stand!!!

"And the church said AMEN"✔️💯

word!

As we are #STILL and will remain. . . Strong words from a #StrongWOMAN

Kamala Harris wasn't going to save anyone she is one of them WAKE UP!!

Bro I can't believe people is stressing over not getting a clown as their president if she didn't do nothing for you in the past 4 years and she was the right hand man of the man what do you think she's going to do in another for years?

1) You are so beautiful and eloquent. 2) I wish I could crochet like that without looking! Even repetitive stitches like that I have to be looking! 3) and most importantly, what a poem. Pure truth. Pure. Truth. I always wondered how these ignorant white men could say that Black women were so dirty and compare them to animals, yet they still put their disease-ridden peckers in them. Maybe it’s because I can never put myself in the mindset of doing such a harmful act to another human, so I just don’t get it. They wanna call Black women less, yet they’ve never been able to do ANYTHING without them.

Holy shit, how is this the first time I've seen your content?!? 1) Your skill with a hook and yarn is amazing. 2) When you speak, there's not a wasted word: your points are compelling and well made 3) You speak charismatically 4) You're absolutely drop-dead gorgous. 5) You have great taste in poetry. I'm a chrocheter who is interested in (leftist) politics, and the only reason I can think of for why the algorithm hasn't sent me here before is that you're a black woman (and I'm a white guy). Instant subscription. I understand this is space is not for me, but I'm going to comment to boost your algorithm if that's okay.

Lol she ain’t black. And she ain’t of our American descendent of chattel slavery roots. End and there in lies the problem. She’s not qualified to do anything explicitly when she flat out said she would never do anything for Black people. What is wrong with y’all??

Harria aint even black. She's Indian.

If you were not an elitist white male who owned property (included land and slaves) you could Not vote at first, that took a few decades

Wow that's powerful poem.the great poetess Maya wrote and still I rise

It was posted on FB by Kenya Brantley on 7 Nov and I believe the author is Tenola Plaxico.

She talks like a secular black ai pastor, it’s tripping me out haha

Where's the rest of the video? You say remember this and that but don't go back to it

Your eyeshadow is gorgeous. And he only got 30% of the vote. I think he won because of rich congressmen voting for him.

Thank you so much for breaking down the historical context of the 1924 immigration act. 👍🏾 I have sought out this act to show the irony that the same people in America who want highly restrictive immigration policy to the point they are foaming at the mouth! Are the same people who were once restricted from America based on what group they belonged to and where they were from, and were considered undesired immigrants. The irony is killing me, these eastern and southern European people desperately want to forget their history, but it’s documented and some people need a reality check 👍🏾😌

New Subscriber. You peace and knowledge is infectious and I’m sharing it with all like minded souls. I’m so glad I stumbled across your platform 🎉

Empress, I am interested in purchasing the quilt you are crocheting right now. Is there a way I can pre-purchase it?

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Beautiful poem but Kamala Harris does not deserve it. It doesn't apply to her.

In the heat of the ballot's sway, You raised your voice in dismay, Mad that our choice, by every right, It was a white man stepping into the light. Yet your wish for her to take the crown, Was bound by skin, not spirit’s gown, A so-called black woman bright, But can truth alone decide the fight? You stand as part of the fray, Where standards twist, and values sway, In a world where colors blur the line, Is fairness lost? Is it so divine? Seek not to cast your stones in vain, Let's rise above this hue of disdain, For in our hearts, let reason bloom, Beyond skin’s shade, let justice loom.

Love this.

Who cares about color or gender? Not most of America, and this sentiment is more critical than ever in the current socio-political climate. It should not influence our voting decisions; we should focus on our country's policies and future. To base political choices on race or gender is, in fact, a form of discrimination that undermines the very principles of equality and freedom that are foundational to this nation. As a Latina who has made the conscious choice to vote for Trump, my decision was driven strictly by policy considerations rather than the hue of my skin or my gender identity. For many of us, it is profoundly un-American to let external identities dictate political alignment. Voting is a personal right, and the beauty of democracy lies in our ability to express differing opinions based on our unique perspectives. We forge toward a more inclusive and understanding society when prioritizing policies over identity. Disagreeing with someone's political choices should never lead to an accusation stance, as it only perpetuates division. Each individual's experience and the rationale behind their vote are valid, and it is essential to recognize that diversity of thought enriches democratic discourse. Encouraging dialogue rather than casting judgment fosters an environment where all voices can be heard and respected, regardless of race or gender. The truth is that many people across the nation, irrespective of their background, feel similarly disenfranchised by the prevailing narrative that seeks to oversimplify complex political decisions by attributing them solely to race or gender. Such a mindset can lead to a homogenization of opinions, stifling the diverse experiences and beliefs that make our nation unique. Challenging the notion that all individuals must fit within neatly defined categories is essential. When it comes to who we support in politics, it is vital to prioritize understanding over prejudice. Each voter has reasons, often deeply rooted in their experiences, values, and aspirations for the future. Instead of judging one another based on skin color or gender, we should encourage an honest evaluation of policies and potential leaders. A vote cast in favor of a candidate must be seen as an exercise of independence rather than an expression of identity politics. Labeling someone’s vote as a product of their race or gender is not only reductive but can also be perceived as a form of silencing dissent. Imposing that others should strictly vote a certain way based on preconceived identities is an infringement upon personal liberties. True freedom entails making choices that resonate with one's ideals and beliefs, regardless of societal pressures and expectations. Political discussions often get heated, but civility should always remain at the forefront. So, let us cultivate an atmosphere where differences are celebrated, and opinions are welcomed. Listening to one another is crucial to understanding diverse perspectives and fostering unity amid diversity. Engaging with empathy and openness is vital, recognizing that each individual's experience is unique and deserving of respect. In conclusion, the focus should not be on upholding stereotypes about race or gender when it comes to voting. Instead, we should champion policies that align with our values and vision for the future of our country. We can collectively rise above identity-based politics and instead validly represent our beliefs through our votes. Taking a stand and voting based on principles rather than preconceived notions is essential to our democratic process. So, let’s stop pointing fingers and instead encourage a broader understanding and acceptance, where everyone, regardless of their background, can exercise their right to vote freely and without prejudice.

Grateful Rising Empress Onyx, did you do the art work on your walls? You are a piece of art yourself.

You are gorgeous, Empress Onyx.

Well, let's hope Trump deports at least 8-10 million non-Black people. It will only make your vote more powerful even if it means a few percentage points. ```your Bruda.

Thrilled to see you on TH-cam!! Many thank yous for everything you teach!

What a 💎 @aleciarenece and @themisthoth

THE AUDACITY OF YOU ALL!! Kamala is an open and proud Zionist war criminal! She has been for years. ZIONISM IS A RACIST, GENOCIDAL, RELIGIOUS CULT THAT BELIEVES CERTAIN PEOPLE ARE SUPERIOR, ABOVE THE LAW, AND ALLOWED TO SLAUGHTER, STEAL FROM, OPPRESS, TORTURE, AND DISPLACE THOSE THEY DEEM RACIALLY SUBHUMAN!! That is the cult that Joe and Kamala have broken USA law and human rights to serve. Democrats were supposed to resist, confront, shame, protest, and force Dem leaders to end their party war crimes!! That is what you were required to do A YEAR AGO!! You were supposed to uphold the values and laws of the free world. You, instead, descended into the same depravity as Germans of the Nazi Party to praise and grovel and support your party's horrific atrocities. Netanyahu has an arrest warrant!! All the USA leaders who funded and protected Israel war crimes are on the list!! Bidens administration is at the top!! You voted for war crimes!! You were supposed to resist!!

First, I'm feeling the anger crochet. America chose a felon over the most qualified candidate to ever run for the office. America, America'd.

Very much the way I feel karma is a bitch and she will be paid .

Gurl, Do you do crochet lessons?

Don't be angry for the next 4 years. That's a long time. This country didn't elect Hilary Clinton twice either.

They could not see because their eyes are blind.😢

I whole day agree ❤

Beautifully performed in word, more impressively with how perfect each stitch was and how well it accentuated the content of the poem. Thank you for sharing.

Yes sweetheart I love your big watermelons and would definitely love to get to know you. How are you doing? How was your day?

What a superfluous fool, hiding behind a stupid racist rant!
