We're Destined For Greatness... At least I am..

About Me

Even if you were high up on the high grade, you'd still have to live in my shade. There's no lift to get to my level.
I am a flip flop feminist with a disdain for patriarchy. Still I enjoy the luxuries of sexism, and thrive sweet bliss of political ignorance. I exist in two worlds that constantly collide, and I'm not looking for the emergency exit.
I'm intelligent and confident. I get paid to talk, and even more to listen. So keep talkin' that sh*t. Nope, I got nothin' on Oprah, but check with me again in a few years. I might even let you work for me.
I'm a capitalist activist. I'm allergic to Pan-Africanist-Rastafarian-Hebalist-Black-Nationalists, and coffee loving bureaucrats with mini-vans and cottages. But I got some Allegra for that ass. So you suckas are tolerable now.
I'm on a mission to penetrate the circles of influence and break them open for my poor, oppressed and pessimistic peers (See...I told yall, I could get in). I challenge institutions to work on my terms, and they listen.
I destroy doubt so that I can rebuild on a lost legacy of solidarity. Feel free to join in, but enter at ya own risk. Cut to commercial.

My Interests

Beats. Rhymes. Life...and ...politics, women's issues, music in general, fashion, travel, parties (with plenty of "old school"), high heels, flip flops, organic and wrapped in bacon, consciousness, unconsciousness.

Jennifer Hudson is Fat

My sofa is uncomfortable, I don't have cable and I can't stand Simon Cowell. So you better believe that American Idol (America's God-Complex strikes again) is not on my list of things to do at night. ...
