skins problem sin
It's a sin problem, not a skin problem.
heart excellent-work effort
A consistent and heart-filled effort to completion is the foundation of excellent work.
destiny entrepreneur want
You CAN be what you want to be. Whatever that is.
children long racism
I'M HOPELESS, because I've lived long enough to expect things like this to continue to happen. I'm not surprised and at some point my little children are going to inherit the weight of being a minority and all that it entails.
design focus needs
In any given marketplace, there's a triangle. There's a line of Dior goods at $25,000 that creates the sharp focus you need to sell $100 scarves to every woman. When [Design Miami] Basel popped on the scene, it proved there's a market for the top of the design triangle, which will lead the wide base beneath it.
white people racism
I'M INTROSPECTIVE, because sometimes I want to take "our" side without looking at the facts in situations like these. Sometimes I feel like it's us against them. Sometimes I'm just as prejudiced as people I point fingers at. And that's not right. How can I look at white skin and make assumptions but not want assumptions made about me? That's not right.
jobs athlete thinking
When you are public figure, you're an athlete or actor, that is your job to speak out on certain things. I think you speak out on what you desire to speak out on or your passionate about.
confused responsibility winning
I'M CONFUSED, because I don't know why it's so hard to obey a policeman. You will not win!!! And I don't know why some policeman abuse their power. Power is a responsibility, not a weapon to brandish and lord over the populace.
painful-experiences racism insulting
I'M OFFENDED, because of the insulting comments I've seen that are not only insensitive but dismissive to the painful experiences of others.
attitude real men
I'M FRUSTRATED, because pop culture, music and movies glorify these types of police citizen altercations and promote an invincible attitude that continues to get young men killed in real life, away from safety movie sets and music studios.
football jobs blessed
I believe that I have a platform because God blessed me with the talent to play football. Having that talent, my job is to be responsible with it.
eye racism stories
I'M ANGRY because the stories of injustice that have been passed down for generations seem to be continuing before our very eyes.
hurt racism community
I'M SAD, because another young life was lost from his family, the racial divide has widened, a community is in shambles, accusations, insensitivity hurt and hatred are boiling over, and we may never know the truth about what happened that day.
growing-up father kids
If fathers aren't growing up, I would challenge them to want to be a father that is present in the home, so that their kids have that identity.
