It’s A New Dawn and A New Day Are You Feeling Good?

The Honorable

There seems to be a new change on the horizon.

One of the great things that I appreciate about the media is that when certain situations take place it sets the ball rolling for certain conversations to come to the surface.

Some of these conversations have certainly been a long time coming.

It seems as if there is the beginning of different melanated men from different backgrounds and mindsets coming to the forefront.

I am definitely here for it…lol.

I feel that there has been a need for more diversity within the diversity.

You might say Ms. DaSh’e (if ya nasty..lol) what do you mean?

Well, in my opinion when there is only three, maybe four at the most of black males speaking on certain subject matters it can create a false narrative that ALL black males think in the same manner.

As I continue to grow and heal, it opens up the avenue for me to continue to meet amazing melanated men who show me in their actions and deeds and conversations that all black males do not think the same.

Insert Cory Booker and the interaction between him and the Honorable Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson.

I have to admit it was wonderful to see and hear Cory Booker’s words however as I continue to ponder I can’t help but wonder if perhaps it was more of an awakening for him than her.

She lived it.

It was also interesting to see the many pictures of her crying and by the way still looking fabulous.

I’m sure those tears had many meanings and memories of the many things she has had and still endures while being in her chosen career field.

In some aspects it seemed somewhat sinister though.

As if some were actually salivating at seeing a melanated woman cry.

In some aspects, it seemed as if that was the underlying goal.

However, as Ms. Maya Angelou said it best “Still I Rise”.

In her own way the Honorable Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson embodies that.
