Saying farewell to summer with this throwback because I wasn’t ready to let this one go. 🤎 One of the highlights of my summer was being surrounded by thousands of Black journalists at #NABJ26 in Atlanta — a city deeply rooted in Black beauty and hair culture. So naturally, I had to spotlight one of my favorite parts of the experience: the beauty, creativity and diversity of Black hair. From locs and braids to afros, twists, curls and everything in between, there was no shortage of hair inspiration throughout the conference. And it was beautiful. We don’t have to shrink our hair, our style or our personalities to be taken seriously. Black hair is professional. It always has been. ➿✨ • • • #hairinspo #blackhaircare #Blackjournalists #Blackhairstyles

Early in my career, the thing I thought was my biggest setback turned out to be the reason everything else happened. We’ve all been there. The offer that fell through. The door that closed. The “no” that felt like the end of the road. But looking back, so many of those moments weren’t rejection. They were redirection. If you’re sitting in a disappointment right now, wondering why something didn’t work out, hold on. Delays are not denials. Save this for the next time you need the reminder. You’re qualified and it will all work out. 📈 #journalism #media #career #motivation #fyp

The verdict is in. On August 31, 2026, a Las Vegas jury found Duane “Keffe D” Davis guilty in connection with the 1996 killing of Tupac Shakur. Thirty years after Tupac’s death, the case that has remained one of the most concerning mysteries in Hip Hop has now reached a historic moment. But what does this verdict mean? What does it mean for Tupac’s family? Tupac’s legacy? For Hip Hop? For the people loved him and were influenced by him? And what questions remain about the circumstances surrounding his death? We’ll be talking about all of it at Soul Cinema Sundays Presents JUICE on Sunday, September 20 at 7 PM at the Plaza Theatre. Join host Abyss Graham, moderator Ernie Suggs, journalist and senior editor for AJC/UATL, and guest panelists Sonia Murray, entertainment journalist at the AJC, and Joe Stewart, Hiphop professor at Clark Atlanta University, for an after film conversation about Tupac’s life, legacy, political and cultural influences, his impact on Hip Hop and popular culture, and now, the verdict in the case surrounding his death. Thirty years later, there is still much to talk about. 🎬 Soul Cinema Sundays Presents JUICE 📅 Sunday, September 20, 2026 🕖 7 PM 📍 The Plaza Theatre 1049 Ponce De Leon Ave NE, Atlanta 🎟 Tickets: link in bio #SoulCinemaSundays #Tupac #TupacShakur #Juice #HipHopHistory

I made under 20K at my first TV job. Here’s how I got creative and negotiated a deal without an agent. A few of these work in ANY industry. Most people only push back on the salary number. But when a company says they can’t budge on money, there’s almost always wiggle room somewhere else. Relocation, time off, an early exit clause, they just don’t advertise it. You have to ask. So whether you’re in TV or not, take this with you: the worst they can say is no. Save this for your next offer. And if I missed a good one, put me on in the comments ⤵️ #negotiation #tv #journalism #media #money

This month, I had the pleasure of attending the 50th annual @nabjofficial conference in Atlanta. Through touring the @civilandhumanrights museum, participating in the @nbcuacademy workshop and gaining new connections through the career fair, I would say NABJ 2026 was a success! Enjoy a recap of the experience through my POV 📹 Until next time ✨#houston2027
