@cranklucas brilliant brother !! @bustarhymes Repect General !!!
Ending this year with lots of reflections and time spent with the realest ones . An incredible dinner at @thalassanyc . ( best grilled octopus EVER ) . If you know @johngungierivera you know he is one of the most selfless, hard working , kind, loyal and committed people you will ever meet .
The dedication he has to the important work in honor of his beautiful “forever 6 yr old son “ via @cristianriverafoundation helping to find a cure for the rare cancer that is Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) an aggressive type of childhood cancer that forms in the brainstem. They are very rare and almost always occur in the pediatric population. To avoid the high morbidity and mortality associated with this condition, DPIG must be promptly diagnosed and treated.
We have so much more work to do together my Virgo brother
Happy Holidays Family !! 🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾❤️
As folks prepare , as is the custom for many, to do, be and have more in the new year 2024, reflect on this…..
The first real estate we own is on our minds. Thank you brother @doncheadle

A very Happy New Year Appreciation post to the woman who has held the vision of @yobadevelopment with me for the last 6 years @blackgirlseat .
This is my sister, confidant, friend , co- conspirator, collaborator, brain trust, homie, fellow BX Bomber, and the person that without whom I truly don’t know who I’d be since Dec 2017. I love and appreciate you madly!

I feel my sister @tarajiphenson pain. This unfortunate truth exists in every industry we don’t control or at least have significant leadership positions in and this is the story over and over and over and over and over and over …… I feel my sisters pain as we have ALL been there and where folks expect us to remain. It’s really on us to turn towards each other and build together SYSTEMS change. It’s hard as fuck but if we don’t our babies, babies, babies, babies will be saying the same thing
It’s like Groundhog Day everyday. Hence why I work on building @yobadevelopment EVERY SINGLE DAY!!
This Christmas Holiday , the celebration of the birth of Christ, for some is the reason for the season as it well should be as we give thanks. However we are not a monolith and for many of us, this holiday, season is filled with loneliness, joy, pain, family dynamics across the spectrum, , suffering, healing , separation, division, war, strife and devastation. ,
While many of us get to rejoice there are many of us that don’t get to see yesterday’s tomorrow today or won’t make it to the new year. Some of us hold each moment as precious and not to be taken for granted while others hold grudges and hold up progress.
I don’t say this to dampen anyone’s spirit but instead, it’s to lift up spirits to encourage us to always remember to see each other as we see ourselves, and remember that one Golden Rule… “Do unto others….”
For certain there is a tide that is rising across the globe of separatism and otherness, and and seeing our fellow citizens as less than human, but the fact is, this has always been a part of human history. Light vs Dark . Good vs Evil. It is precisely at these times that those of us of good conscience regardless of religion have FAITH in humanity’s ability to self correct and put our thumb on the scale of love, FREEDOM and opportunity for all of God’s children. So we must dig deeper into our spiritual well, and even deeper into that reserve and pull up all that is good and righteous and kind and loving so that we may put this energy forward with the understanding that love and compassion is the light that we allow us to shine brighter than ever before and no bow down.
We may not have all the answers in this moment, but the one thing we do know is that those of us that have the ability to be reflective must double and triple down on that attribute is in these moments . The other choice is to continue to sit on the sidelines and expect someone else to put in that work.
Feliz Navidad Familia 🎄🎁❤️
Word of the day “EQUITY” . Period!!!! @pharrell
Before this year is over , I want to once again acknowledge my brother @e.raymond_ for his courage and commitment to doing the right thing by our community.
As an @nypd officer he became a whistleblower and resisted the quota system to target black and brown people with false arrests and trumped up charges. Here’s a little moment from his book launch #aninconvenientcop now headed to best seller status. Pick up your copy on @amazon or wherever you buy your books. Head over to his page for more details .
When you have a presidential candidate as the forerunner with 91 charges against them ….. Happy New Year American and don’t forget to vote 👀🇺🇸
