  • A few months ago I launched a passion project, ZonDAmour.com as a space to empower dark skin men & women. At the time, I wondered if men would be open to sharing their own insecurities since society is preoccupied with “fixing” women’s “flaws”. Our bodies are always being criticized. Oftentimes women put their self-worth in the hands of men for validation not realizing that they’re also figuring themselves out. So conversations with @egyptali_ were a breath of fresh air. Despite hundreds of “likes” on every photo of his body and babyface, his vulnerability is a part of what makes him attractive. Here are some clips from a candid conversation we had about dating for dark skin women and the responsibilities we have as creatives who direct and produce to show more images of dark skin men & women in the media. #Cinematographer: @thebowenimage #NewMusic “Flyin Kites” by @LavellStreets . .. .... ..... ...... ....... ........ ......... #Producer #Host #Filmmaker #LincolnUniversity #HBCU #APhiA #UnapologeticallyBlack #BlackHistory #ForTheCulture #BlackIsBeautiful #ABFF #DarkSkinWomen #Haitian #HowardUniversity #HBCU #DST #DeltaSigmaTheta #ΔΣθ #DST #AlphaPhiAlpha #NaturalHair #Locs #BlackGirlMagic #Revolt @TVOne @OWNTV @Revolt @becauseofthem @Blavity @darkskinwomen #Director #EntertainmentJournalist #GreekUnity #Creatives
  • (Pt. 2) Of my interview w/ @BigSean from the @fordfoundation @menofcourage__ event which reiterates how #woke he is... On a side note, when I asked who were some of the courageous people in his life that helped to make him the man he his today, he responded with one of my favorite quotes from the article (link in bio) “…When someone would tell me something that wasn’t aligned with my future it felt wrong, so I’m thankful for that…” . .. ... .... ..... ...... ....... ........ ......... #MenOfCourage #ColinKaepernick #BecauseOfThemWeCan #BlackHistory #ChanceTheRapper #Journalist #GoodMusic #KanyeWest #Moderator @SeanAndersonOrg @YourRightsCamp #BigSean #Detroit #Rapper #Producer #HowardUniversity #HBCU #BrownGirlBloggers #DarkSkinWomen #NaturalHair #Inspiration #Motivation
  • (Pt. 1) After this years #RocNation brunch there was a photo with #JayZ, #TI #Diddy, #SwizzBeatz, #YoGotti & #BigSean to name a few that went viral. With an estimate net worth of over $1 billion amongst the group, the photo that was celebrating black excellence was criticized for the artists not doing “enough” to give back. Having recently interviewed @BigSean for the third time, w/ 2 out of 3 occasions being in a community service setting, I was disheartened by the presumptuous bandwagon that many people had gotten on because philanthropy is a major aspect of his brand. I recently spoke with him at the @fordfoundation inaugural @MenOfCourage__ event in LA. With the goal of combating the negative stereotypes that plague African American men (cue the irony of the brunch photo) the #MenOfCourage initiative is designed to allow “community leaders to rise up” said Big Sean. This is one of my most important interviews because representation matters & there artists & athletes like Big Sean, #ChanceTheRapper & of course #ColinKaepernick who are using their platform to literally pay it forward. @seanandersonorg @yourrightscamp
  • In this clip @LarenzTate reminded me that his body of work is longer than a CVS receipt: #LoveJones #MenaceIISociety, #DeadPresidents, #Crash, #WhyDoFoolsFallInLove, #Ray, #Bronzeville #Power...to name a few #bloop! This interview was shot in December, the @BounceTV #TrumpetAwards was filmed in January & it aired tonight so this is somewhat of a throwback but not really! It was such a great way to start off my new year as an #EntertainmentJournalist & #Moderator...I have the full testimony on @ZonDAmour but this interview was a reiteration & confirmation that I'm walking in my purpose even when it doesn't feel like it. I was nervously fluffing my fro & doing my makeup @kanetraking house while tryna show her how to keep my camera in focus. Thank God for quality studio lighting! And thank you to amazing publicists including: @sibleyworld @saptosamfoster @4evervaughn for believing in me and extending such amazing opportunities! .. .... ..... ...... ....... #StoryTime #Director #Producer #Junket #LarenzTate #EricaAsh #BlackHistory #BecauseOfThemWeCan #BlackMenSmiling #BlackBoyJoy @DarkAndLovely #BlackGirlBloggers #BrownGirlBloggers #DarkSkinWomen #NaturalHair #TeamNatural #PAFF #ABFF #DarkAndLovely @TVOne @OWNTV @Starz @Essence
