Have you ever been #suckpunched? Well, that’s how I felt when I researched further into the book #ABtoJayZ by @thelittlehomie__ . . . It was like somebody pooped all over a #childhood memory that I really wanted to share with my kids! . . . I love #hiphop! I was raised listening to all types of #music and #hiphopmusic hold a special place in my heart . . . So, after learning that the authors of this book #JessicaChiha and #DannyChiha have continually disrespected that, I just had to share it. . . . It really pains me to type this. It pains me to share this. It pains me to have #childrensbooks undervalued. It pains me to have the hip hop culture undervalues. . . @makiniregaldesigns has outlined the issues with this book and #ontheblog I have outlined ways to fight back against #culturalappropriation #culturalinsensitivity #biogtry and #hate . . . This hurts. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #kidslit #representationmatters #diversityinbooksmatter #authenticvoices #hiphopmotherhood #blackmomsblog #imsobloggingthis #uniteinmotherhood #fighthatewithlove #africanamericanchildrensbooks @blackvoices @_we_ownit_ @webuyblack @theshaderoom @balleralert @troubleman31 @ava @oprah @iamcardib (at Maryland)
