Most of you don’t know who she is but she’s important. Her name is Latasha Harlins. In 1991, at the ripe age of 15, Latasha went to her local Korean owned food mart and never made it out. The store owner’s wife, Soon Ja Du, mistook her for trying to steal a bottle of orange juice and a minor struggle ensued. Du grabbed Latasha and ended up getting pushed to the ground. Du then went and got her gun and pointed it at Latasha. Latasha bends down, picks up the orange juice, and places it on the counter. As Latasha had walked away to leave the store, Du shot Latasha in the back of the head at a 3 foot distance, killing her immediately. Du tried to claim self defense, but there were 2 eyewitnesses and the store’s security camera showed otherwise. The jury convicted Du and advised the judge to go with the maximum sentence of 16 years. Du walked away with 400 hours of community service, 5 years probation, and a $500 fine, as the judge said although Mrs. D acted inappropriately, her actions were justified. Judge Joyce Karlin states that Mrs. Du was the victim, Latasha is the criminal and would be standing in front of her for assault on a store clerk had she not died. The slaughter of Latasha Harlins is one of major factors in the initiating of the LA Riots. We only hear about Rodney King but she is the original . Tupac had an affinity for Latasha and has mentioned her name in several songs as well as dedicated the iconic song “Keep Ya Head Up” to Latasha. So today we say Latasha Harlins, you’re a pillar baby girl, whether they realize or not. And today, someone heard ya story❤️

In my opinion, donald trump is not respected or admired, he is feared. We have never had a president like him in my lifetime. He expects people to accept what he says, without questioning him. It's his way or not at all. He is attempting to take away our right to speak our truth, if it goes against his agenda. He isn't uniting our country, he is dividing us. No one should wield as much power as he think he does. Our country is in turmoil because of him. We have the right to speak our mind, as long as we are not making threats, without fear of retribution. I never imagined our country becoming a dictatorship.

Today, we honor Chadwick Boseman, whose light still shines strong in every story we tell.⁠
⁠
On August 28, 2020, we lost a rare soul: an artist who carried the weight of heroes like Jackie Robinson, T’Challa, and Thurgood Marshall, while battling colon cancer in silence. He never stopped creating, inspiring, or lifting us higher.⁠
⁠
Though he left us at just 43, his legacy — rooted in courage, grace, and representation—lives on in every frame and every heart he touched.⁠
⁠
Forever our king. 🖤
