Have a Blessed Sunday, Everyone.
Even though 3Chics Politico is written and curated by three women: Ametia, Rikyrah, and SouthernGirl2, I must nominate this as one of the most engaging blogs I've found. Devoted to politics and culture, these three shine a light on contemporary life with humor and spirit.

My kids are going to Houston today. My ex is celebrating his birthday and he’s making Gumbo, fried fish etc. He can cook too.
My brother’s wife is making enchiladas, tostadas, guacamole and pound cake.
OMG, SG2, you had a man who could cook and you let him get away?
LOL! He wasn’t doing all that cooking when we were together. But later years he started cooking and he can really cook.
Oh, okay, that explains it. :)
Sounds delicious 😋😋
Sweet! Nothing like a man in a kitchen who can COOK!
Love it.

@Dander_Bogaerts Secondly. Virginia’s transformation to a “blue” state is because of a diverse, non-white population making it that way. Statewide Democratic politicians do NOT win of the strength of white voters. Even after Northam made gains in 2017, he still lost the overall white vote. https://twitter.com/MonieTalks_1/status/1092092231538872320?s=17

@Dander_Bogaerts What I need people outside of Virginia to understand is that the voters responsible for making Virginia “blue” and are determined to keep it that way…can still do so without Northam…because we are the ones who put him there, and not the other way around.

They really don’t. It’s the privilege of them never having experienced it so they don’t get to think about it, see it, feel it in every nook and cranny of this country; but yet they still want to define what is racist and what isn’t.

EXACTLY. If it’s not happening to them, it doesn’t exist. For all of my life, it has been this way. When POC and non-Christians complain about racism, bigotry, and discrimination in housing, jobs, medical care, policing, etc., millions of Americans don’t believe us because it’s not happening to them. This society has groomed them to dismiss our concerns about the absence of equality in America. The Trump administration decided last year to not permit the UN to investigate human relations in America. This tells me that the administration is afraid of what the investigation would reveal which is that America is not a nation where equality is a huge concern, and contrary to what the government’s official position is, human rights abuses are definitely occurring here.
