Paulana: Just know this is my doppelganger and she was apart of one of my favorite summers. Day 20 goes to Paulana for 28 Days of Real Fuckin Black. @itspaulana . . . Paulana Lamonier is from Long Island, New York, she graduated from CUNY York College in 2013 with a BA in Journalism. Paulana game plan is to be an edutainer. Educating and entertaining her audience through all mediums: writing, broadcast journalism & through the performing arts. She is currently writing for ESPN's The Undefeated and has some really dope stories coming through the pipeline. So be on the lookout! What she love about herself is her outlook on life. She has always maintained an optimistic outlook, even when people "be trying her." Sometimes it can be passed off as dismissive (which is true, lol), but she always learned to not let the little things get to you. Focus on the big picture. She loves that her community is small, intimate and everyone knows each other. In her community, she says, "We have a lot of dreamers & people that are out there making dreams happen." Paulana right now plans for herself it's to be on TV/create her own YouTube channel. She really want to exercise being in front of an audience & making people laugh, but also learning. She is definitely a learner and a go getter. She wants to entertain but she knows that It's crucial for her to educate her audience not just entertain. Paulana is a people's person just like me and has a vision or two cents for everyone. She says to the youth, "Have a vision first & believe in it wholeheartedly. The Bible says without vision the people WILL perish meaning God didn't give you your vision/dream solely for you, it's for those around & coming after you in the future generations. Secondly, have mentors. It's important to have an advisory board/tribe of people you can go to & seek counsel." I love this girl and I couldn't go 28 days without broadcasting her.Thank you and Stay REAL FUCKIN BLACK. #blackqueen #blackking #blackfamilylove #realfuckinblack #hellablackhellaproud #blackish #blackislife #blackgirlmagic #blackislit #blackgirlsarelit #blacklove #blackachievement #blackblackblack #joinjehmu #28daysofrealfuckinblack
