Folks are building for empowerment and I'm here for it. #horizonworlds

Fact: Building the world you want isn't easy... even in the metaverse. Props to all the VR world builders, designers, and creators. It takes skill, patience, commitment, passion, creativity, and vision! Cuz this stuff is HARD! Here's where I'm at in the building process 🙈.

This is my favorite opening of any episode of #UnitedShades. It aired in 2019. & it feels even MORE relevant (& maybe even more shocking) after the #TyreNichols video.👇🏿
