@MildlyBitter You know this would've made me lose it too! We can only take so much.

@diepthought Serving every flavor!

@KatoriHall As an arts professional and trained arts journalist, I can't verify his statement. Everything we do revolves around the artists and the work itself which can take years to bring to fruition.

GTFOH

@KieseLaymon Sad to hear that but I understand. I've had amazing experiences with doctors & health care professionals (some POC) at The Institute for Family Health. They also have several locations & one can even apply for their sliding scale payment plan. A blessing! institute.org

@diepthought You have shown me plenty throughout the years! And hopefully we'll be able to treat each other pre- or post-show in the coming year (though maybe not until fall/winter if we're lucky).

@diepthought Girl, you are not a slacker! Personally, crafting is a pillar of life, and especially the holiday season. Just showing you a bit of love via the post office, lol.

@diepthought His not wanting kids was also about a grudge he was holding for a father who didn't really seem to care for him and was no longer alive. What would've been more realistic is if they'd separated and then he showed up in the next season with a baby from another woman. Smh.

@diepthought I loved this line too. So powerful!

@ydavey @diepthought @annabelguevara @NYCTSubway @ydavey You must have me confused with someone else but you don't know me. I do however know a number of folx (women mostly) who left even before Covid citing safety as a factor. This a space to support Diep and Annabel so focus on that instead of addressing me.

@diepthought @annabelguevara @NYCTSubway Are you kidding me?! This is insane! I'm glad to hear you both are now safe but it is just pathetic to hear how you both were treated by NYC workers. This just one of many reasons folks are fleeing the City.

@josesolismayen Praying for you. Spending positive healing energy your way.

@josesolismayen Love this throw back movie with Betty Davis' drama. Everything about it is theatrical! This scene is the truth though.

@MildlyBitter I've always been that young-old lady. I even save nice pieces of paper, smh. Welcome to the club!

@diepthought "But once again, a musical about racism and the lives of people of color in America are directed by white men." I literally just spoke about this incomprehensible industry tradition (also evident in companies) with one of my APAP leadership fellows. It's so disheartening.

She consistently trashed WOC and questioned their scholarship. She even described my colleague Marisa Fuentes as a "slave catcher" in the introduction to her book. Kind of amazing how white supremacy means she even thought she was better at being a person of color than we were.

@diepthought @KamalaHarris Don't worry, Diep. You won't be alone. I get closer to that reality with each passing year. And Kudos to your mom!

@diepthought @cashleelee I know this struggle all too well. Even when working at "Black" arts institutions.

Retweet if you’d heard of Juneteenth.
