Be enraged. Be disgusted. Be radicalized. But don’t be shocked unless you’re willing to admit your empathy has a skin color. This is who America has always been.
Make no mistake. This is the America it has always been. The target just rotates.
This is the America that massacred Indigenous peoples. Violently stole their land, violated their bodies, and erased their cultures.
This is the America that enslaved Black people for nearly 250 years, followed by another century of segregation, lynching, and redlining. An estimated $10 trillion in stolen labor built this country’s wealth, never repaid to this day.
This is the America that incarcerated Japanese Americans in internment camps under the guise of national security.
This is the America that has harmfully policed, deported, tortured, and dispossessed Latino communities.
And now, this is the America willing to kill a man for defending a woman. Sending a clear message that even the best among us are as disposable as the so-called least.
All the insurrectionists and Proud Boys acquitted from January 6th were effectively promoted into positions where they can now legally perform their hatred in public.
White people never saw themselves as becoming the next target. And that is how we got here.
So be enraged. Be disgusted. Be radicalized. But do not be shocked unless you are willing to admit your empathy has a skin color. This is who America has always been.
My form of protest for the last two years has been helping people leave this fascist regime.
And my priority will always be Black women who fought the hardest while benefiting the least.
History doesn’t always repeats itself, but it certainly rhymes.
My form of protest for the last 2 years has been helping people leave.
I wrapped up my first cohort of helping women move to Thailand, and I’ve been posting videos on countries that are Black-friendly, humane, and affordable.
I even made a YouTube video last summer titled “Why You Need to Leave the U.S. Before It’s Too Late” and it took off.
A white supremacist country slaughtering its own white folk is crazy work.
I can’t stress this enough, make your escape plan.
It WILL get uglier.
Disclaimer: this only applies to those who’ve already desired leaving and are able.
Aging parents, unemployment, and other circumstances will indeed make things harder.
Life is guaranteed hardship, but you can choose which hard will eventually make your future easier.
Praying for ease, warmth, and strength to those making the hard decision to leave it all behind.
An unfamiliar Heaven will always be better than a familiar Hell.
I’m approaching 4 years sober and right next to my relationship with God, this has been the single decision to have increased the quality of my life, skin, and peace exponentially.
With ADHD, we’re not good at moderation, so cutting down to one glass of wine felt like a headache to manage.
So I said I’m going to try it one day at a time and see how I feel.
Within 2 weeks of better sleep and less anxiety, I knew I’d never look back.
God is so good and I’m so grateful for this path I’m on 🥹
If you’re looking for free resources, I recommend the apps “Sober” or “Quit Drinking.”
What’s especially helpful to note is the purge of emotions that immediately follow.
You don’t realize how much alcohol suppresses your emotions until you cry every day for 6 months straight, as your body finally feels safe to release years of your life drinking away your feelings.
To anyone on this journey, I salute you, respect you, and admire you making this decision for your future.

If there was ever a photo to embody what life outside of America truly looks and feels like, this is the one!
Reminder: I’m hosting another live workshop to help you with the first 3 steps to leave!
We go over country options based on budget, visas, calculations, and more!
And those who attend live can of course ask me questions directly on camera.
Looking forward to meeting many of you!

Right before I started my daily YouTube journey on August 1st last year, I told a friend that I was done hiding.
“HIDING?” 🤨 Sis, you’ve been online for 2 decades!”
And that’s the thing… because I’ve been creating for so long, I can get away with average effort.
I didn’t like that I lost the hunger that made me successful in the first place.
So if you see me on these internet streets loud and proud, this is me making up for years of thinking that being the “best kept secret” was a flex.
I’m ready to be seen again 😎
