Watching this as 2024 begins and it’s crazy how true her words still are. They were relevant then and we’re seeing in real time the consequences of not applying them now.
I LOVE her Laugh. and everything else she has to say is deeply powerful and accessible and I'm so thankful for the work she did, ideas she shared and her voice captured here so well
Women and children were put on lifeboats first when Titanic was sinking, and women have a longer life expectancy then men partly because guys do the most dangerous jobs such as running into burning buildings and saving lives, building buildings, bridges and other dangerous occupations.

I’m watching this as a black poet in 2024. Her words still true though they shouldn’t be, truer now more than ever.
Watching on a June 1st, 2020. So relevant to today. I feel the spirit of the beloved and revered June Jordan.

Wow, men are so selfless. Except when a deceased poet injures their pride!
How many BLM supporters and this has how many views?
