Former Fox News host, Megyn Kelly, exposed the hell out of Bill O'Reilly this past Monday when her disgraced mentor said that no one had ever complained about his behavior in the workplace. Kelly said she knows for a fact it's not true because she personally had made complaints about his treatment towards women who in the past spoke out against the decades of sexual harassment at FOX News. She had also spoken to network heads about O'Reilly's own sexual harassment history. Also this past week O'Reilly reached a 32 million dollar settlement with just one woman who had gone after him. Kelly said it gives her "no pleasure" to speak against her former employer, "but this must stop. The abuse of women, the shaming of them, the threatening, the retaliation, the silencing of them after the fact -- it has to stop." I agree with Kelly y'all, what a time to be alive. However, I can be against Megyn Kelly and sexual abuse. Kelly is still a disgus...

While performing at a charity event the singer, Harry Styles, was assaulted by a deranged fan. As you'll see in the video he was kneeling down in front of a group of girls when one decided to take advantage of the situation and reach for his crotch, Styles quickly pushed her hand away. Though he didn't stop his performance he was obviously shaken by the incident. He avoided that part of the stage for the rest of his show. Although many fans and others alike were quick to get onto social media to denounce this act, there are some who still sought to normalize this attack and imply that it was somehow nothing more than an accident. It's no wonder why men don't speak up when they feel as though they've been assaulted or raped. Society makes male celebrities feel like they are so lucky to have women completely lose it when they see them. Society questions men for "complaining" about "getting ass." If you think sexual assault and rape can on...

Alyssa Milano was invited to Good Morning America on Thursday to discuss her #MeToo social media campaign. About a week ago she tweeted, "If you've been sexually harrassed or assaulted write 'me too' as a reply to this tweet." The goal was to show men , everyone, how widespread sexual harassment and abuse is. About 1.4 million women, as of Thursday morning, tweeted out the hashtags along with their own personal stories. Milano added "This is your movement, women. This is your time and if I can be the vessel and hold the bullhorn for you guys to shout as loud as humanly possible then I'm honored to do so." I've been struggling with wanting to write a #MeToo and it's not like I don't I have an absurd amount of examples to choose from. Simple things like purposely avoiding the bus stop closer to my home because it was at busy intersection. The gestures and things men would say to me when they drove by literally put the fear of God in m...

Black Panther debuted its second trailer a few days ago and I am beyond ready for February 16th. I have, in fact, found my will to go on and make it through the rest of 2017. Let's just say it's been an eventful year. Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan, my future baby daddy,  have already made magic together with Fruitvale Station and Creed. Add Angela Bassett, Lupita Nyong'o, and Chadwick Bosman, who's played James Brown, Jackie Robinson, and soon Mr. Thurgood Marshall and we've literally hit the trifecta. When I finally see Black Panther white people will not be allowed to speak to me for the rest of the month. Black History Month 2k18 is about to be so lit I don't see how I'll be able to function as a normal human being. Though I was once very critical of the month because it's 28 days  black history is America's history, when Beyonce´ announced to the world this year she was having twins on the very first day of the month I changed my ...

Donald Trump spoke at the Value Voter's Summit this past weekend after getting his Klan hood dry cleaned.  The Summit was put on by the Family Research Council, a hate group, who are known for their anti-LGBTQ ideals and work to deny their equal rights. The council's president, Tony Perkins, said of Trump, "Values voters have waited eight years for a leader who puts America's mission first and respects the values that made America into a great nation." He added, " President  Trump allied himself with values voters, promising to put an end to the eight years of relentless assault on the Frist Amendment." I'm sorry, but isn't this the same man who's been hyper obsessing over and actively trying to end police brutality protests in the NFL? Trump's keynote speech addressed the "attacks on Judeo-Christian values" seeing that it's the only religion that seems to matter in this country. There he waged a war against those who ...

#WomenBoycottTwitter. Celebrities, Journalists, and Citizens alike decided to do a day-long boycott of Twitter to protest the platform's decision to temporarily suspend the account of actress Rose McGowan. She claims she wasn't able to access her account for 12 hours after she shared her experiences of harassment with Harvey Weinstein. Many Twitter users rallied behind McGowan including Chrissy Teagan and Jessica Chastain. Donald Trump is allowed to use the platform to attack individuals like Jemele Hill and basically, try to start nuclear wars with North Korea but never once has it been against their "policies." Twitter's attempt to silence McGowan is just another way our society tries to belittle us. It was an attempt to strip us of our voice and our right to speak out any way we see fit. To be truthful, this is normally something that I would probably have ignored because I prefer to beat people down with my words, but "silence is an argumen...

Recently, Harvey Weinstein has had a slew of sexual harassment and abuse allegations brought against him. The list of women goes back for decades and includes the names of established actresses like Gwyneth Paltrow and Angelina Jolie. In an article written by Ronan Farrow of The New Yorker,  he describes the elaborate coverups that took place at Weinstein’s company by various assistants and executives. This allowed him to operate for so long without any real backlash (for the full story click here ). Donna Karen gave some revolting insight as to why Weinstein wasn't really at fault. When asked about the allegations made against Weinstein, Karen said "to see it here in our own country is very difficult, but I also think how do we display ourselves? How do we present ourselves as women? What are we asking? Are we asking for it by presenting all the sensuality and all the sexuality." Donna Karen is a woman's fashion designer so by this logic I hope to see a line...
