Zendaya’s Fairy Tale moment at 2019 Met Gala
Zendaya never disappoints
THIS IS THE CAST OF SPIDER MAN ARE YOU KIDDING ME
Just a friendly reminder if you’re upset Zendaya was cast as Mary Jane. You’re most likely already comfortable with this guy:
And he used to look like this guy:
And somehow we all ended up ok.
Harry Belafonte passing the baton of social activism to Jesse Williams.
After the BET awards speech, Jesse Williams was criticized by the white media for being “soo angry” and praised by people of color and social activists all over the country.
Williams is the youngest member of the board of directors of the Advancement Project, civil rights and advocacy group. He was also on the front lines during the protest of Michael Brown’s shooting in Ferguson, Missouri. Well, no wonder everyone draws parallels between Williams and Belafonte, who also sits on the Advancement Project board and was close friends with Martin Luther King Jr.
Jesse Williams is a new powerful weapon in our fight for justice and freedom and he won my heart forever.

Look, I think Jesse Williams is great and I think he’s got a whole lot of greatness to share. I have nothing negative to say about him and think he’s going to be a player as a change agent. But where’s the rest of this photo? This isn’t the whole picture and it’s telling when you see the missing piece. Belefonte is passing the baton to Williams - yes. Lovely. Got it and super happy to see it because Williams is a man of character and depth. Like I said, he could be a real change agent. BUT! Let’s take a look at the COMPLETE photo and maybe we’ll see something even GREATER.
That’s right, friends - Zendaya. SHE’s also carrying the baton. You want change? You want to be heard? You better damned well be passing it forward and you better damned well be inclusive. Read the entire article on Ebony.
This is kind of what myself and others have made note on when it comes to Black Activism and Movements. How Black women are often erased. I actually made a comment (or post) a few months ago on how activism/being a rebel is seen as a “Man’s thing” that only benefits men”. How MLK and Malcolm X are the faces of Civil Rights.
& like so many people want to ignore the misogyny in the Black community.
I’ve been so desensitized I didn’t even realize it.😟
Wow go Zendaya!🙌🏾
Iconic.
