Mackenzie Scott gave HBCUs over a billion dollars but was left off the list for top Philanthropist.

MacKenzie Scott gave well over $1 billion to HBCUs and related educational institutions, a historic level of unrestricted support.

If the implication is “how do you leave off someone who changed HBCU funding at that scale?”

We know why, she knows why. None of us care because she’s the GOAT 🐐

Here for ask game, my fav quote is “disappear where your existence is not valued”

Tq for hosting!

There's an obvious solution to your predicament but you just don't see it often? I'm seeing a tendency to overlook your own power and your inner self has had quiet enough of it - a Phoenix breaking through its shell. Breakdown and breakthrough, you chose to shatter the glass ceiling. you're finally waking up to your own power, and manifestation abilities. See it, dream it, want it achieve it. It's magical honestly.

Demi Lovato in this is me vibes. You're done hiding out in the shadows and letting people take credit for your ideas and the work you put in. Fighting for what you deserve. You're finally turning into the ambassador your past self needed - my future is my responsibility.

Learning to use your voice for your benefit.

Self promos.

in today's world, sadly, its not enough to just do the work - you need to be able to market all that you have done for the credit you rightfully deserve.

You deserve to lead centrestage and I see you embracing the limelight. Self advocate. Fighting hard for what you deserve. Cuz you win it fair and square 💪🔥🎇

I am so so excited for all the people of color who made history by winning Emmy’s last night. I’m also deeply saddened that people of color are making history in 2017 by getting the first of any award. We need to do better.

I have a gender-fluid child who recently attended my sisters wedding. They brought home their placecard from their seat at the table...all other cards were appended with Mrs, Miss, or Mr. accordingly, except theirs. Theirs had the name only. This was their Aunt respecting how they identify..
