The end of a very good book... So good that I can imagine the story carrying on in a way. And I'll definitely be rereading it again soon, just to let it sink in. If you're looking for a story to get lost in, this is it. #Americanah by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie #blackartists #blackartists #blackwriters #blackgirlsrock #bookclub

Inspired entirely by and lyrics pulled from this post.

Lyrics:

Driver, lower my tuition please. Driver, lower my tuition please. I don have enough money for my basic needs. Working 40+ hours just to pay my rent Now I don’t even have a single cent Tuition is high, I gotta pay for books Oh I’m so broke . I don’t wanna look I popped open my wallet, no funds to count My credit declined and my check just bounced Oh, there daddy, daddy betta bring that TAP Oh, baby, baby where my FASFA at? Gon’ take 45 years to pay off all dis debt And I ain’t even finished college yet Took all my money… I just want to get a decent credit score, a decent credit score Took all my money .. I can’t even pay this interest no more, pay this interest no more This debt gon kill me

Dude: Excuse me... Do you have a name? Me: Nah. I was born without one. Dude: 😮😔🚶👞👞👞. Me: ✌😂😂😂. Hilarious.

For one of the first loves of my life. My world wouldn't be the same without you. You make me proud every day. Keep climbing! #autismawareness

Black moon rising... Pray for heavenly wisdom tonight! #GodOftheUniverse #blackmoon

[blacklifeandlove]

Whatever you do tonight, please turn on common sense first. Me, I'm gonna turn down these sheets and hit this REM like a boss. #turndownformidnight

[blacklifeandlove]

No matter what, always treat people right. There is no gain in repaying evil with evil. Rise above the moment & show Love.

The seven billionth person on Earth was likely born on Oct. 31, 2011, according to United Nations data. With this milestone, how the planet can sustain such a large population has become an urgent question.

"100 People: A World Portrait" uses World Health Organization, Census, United Nations, and other data, to shrink the world population stats down to apply to just 100 people.

If the world were only 100 people, here’s what it would be like.
