Excerpts from Trevor Noah signing off as host of #TheDailyShow, December 8, 2022:
"I always say, if you really want to learn about America, talk to Black women - because unlike everybody else, Black women cannot afford to f*ck around and find out...
I've often been credited with having these grand ideasβpeople are like, 'Oh Trevor, you're so smart'βwho do you think teaches me? Who do you think has shaped me, nourished me, informed me?...
I'll tell you now β do yourself a favor: If you truly want to know what to do or how to do it or maybe the best way or the most equitable way, talk to Black women."

Iβm tellinβ you the truth! π Getting to the root of the issue is always the way to treat the symptoms. I donβt care what creams you use or treatments you get, they can only provide temporary results without doing some internal work. Working through those things that affect you most will always help you make better decisions with diet & lifestyle which ultimately resulting in an enhancement of your beauty. Iβm just sayin. π€·πΎββοΈ #thebeautyinfluencer #joytaughtmeπ #blackbeautybloggers #listentoblackwomen (at Joy University) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNH4FlhhBJR/?igshid=gxv30ilkqgu9
**Illustration** Imagine taking (what was supposed to be) a warm-up sketch and fully rendering it instead of just leaving it alone.

So many pregnancy news sites available and very few talk directly to Black parents and help with encouraging positive parenting. Black maternal health needs to be addressed as so many Black expecting parents are losing their lives due to negligence. . . . . . #blackmomskillingit #blackmaternalmortality #postpartumdoula #listentoblackwomen #positiveparenting #motherhoodthroughinstagram #blackmaternalhealthweek #blackmomsmatter #birthworker #blackmomsblogs #mindfulparenting #maternaljustice #blackmaternalhealth #blackwomenbloggers #blackbabies #blackmomsblog #letthembelittle #blackdoula #reproductivejustice #blackandpreggo #blackmothers #blackmoms #frobabies #dailyparenting #beautifulblackpregnancy #blackmomsdaily #normalizegentleparenting #consciousparenting #pregnancydiary #birthworkerofcolor (at Newark, New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9jYLu4pGV9/?igshid=iyp5sznu30q4
Todayβs celebration of Black Beauty in my series belongs to #SheilaGuyse. Incredibly gorgeous! Etta Drucille Guyse was born on July 14, 1925, in Forest, Mississippi. She took Sheila as a stage name. She followed her father, Wilbert, to New York when she was a teenager and lived for a time in a Harlem rooming house with #BillieHoliday. For several years, Ms. Guyse (rhymes with βniceβ) was compared to stars like Dorothy Dandridge, Lena Horne and Ruby Dee, black actresses who broke through racial barriers. But by the late 1950s she was out of show business, a result of some combination of health problems, a religious conversion and family obligations. βIt wasnβt easy to be a glamorous movie star with people following you for your autograph and now youβre home making pancakes,β Ms. Devin (her daughter) said. βShe did it, but I donβt think it was easy.β Another shining example of the strength of black women. Itβs not just their physical beauty but their story that makes them undeniable. Life happens. We have to find the beauty. #thebeautyinfluencer #joytaughtmeπ #listentoblackwomen #blackbeautybloggers #blackherstory (at Charlotte, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CLCLCEOBVoq/?igshid=xe1xgw504c9c
