I saw Get Out (2017) on opening night. Three months later. I took a 50% pay cut to leave corporate law for entertainment law so I could learn the business before trying to somehow become a creative executive on movies like it. It took seven years. But, it happened today.
‘Black women are often hired or promoted to leadership roles at companies at times of crisis w/ the expectation being that they will fix the issues. The task, experts say, can be so daunting that it quickly leads to burnout or even failure.’ Truly a Catch-22xpie eating contest.
Been reading about shows pulled entirely off of streamers. I’d encourage directors, writers and actors to just tell their lawyer to “ask for DVDs” when negotiating your agreement. It’s a simple request that studios pretty customarily agree to and gets you a physical copy.
@Mars_Ama Instagram is the same handle. Have actually been using the hell out of Stories and posting, I don’t even know what to call them. Visual essays? But also will be on Twitter until it goes down!
I have a thread to share about unethical journalism and the bias and racism that has obfuscated the story of my scholarship and its political legacy. It is the larger story of how @TheAtlantic & other publications have failed the American public then & continue to do so. Pls RT.
Being a Black girl really top tier. So thankful I’m gang 🫶🏾
At the end of June, I finally screened this short film that I directed. I always love movies about older couples (Vortex, 45 Years, Amour, etc.) but hadn’t seen one about an older black couple. So, I made one with a group of friends.
My grandfather died before I was born. Had never seen this picture of him (with my mom) before yesterday. She said they were driving, he saw a studio and said let’s take a picture.
Yeah. So, I bought 35 screenplays to some of the best black movies of the 90s. A golden era for black cinema. I’ve read most. But, I want to release them all for free because I believe this collection should be a birthright for black writers. Here: drive.google.com/drive/mobile/f…
Fumbling the bag don’t always mean money, y’all fumble valuable people too.
As Insecure comes to a close, I’m thinking of this interview from 2012 and how much Twitter has embraced the show. In it, Issa talks about how her brain thinks in tweets and the power of the internet is that you can find your audience. Four years before Ep. 1. Feels prophetic.
Drake loading… #KanyeDrakeLive #FreeLarryHoover
I’m not saying I ate an edible before bed. I’m just saying that if I did, one of the last things I would’ve thought before falling asleep would’ve been that I bet the Squid Game song and that damn Oompa Loompa choreo goes together.
Back to editing after a four month hiatus to find fire. I started in 2018, with an edit using Beale Street’s score, and am almost at the 100th one. Almost done. Haile Gerima’s Sankofa (1993) and poem by Sonia Sanchez.
I AM FREE FROM TWITTER SUSPENSION YET AGAIN. But, during suspension, I directed a short film with two actors, eight background actors, and 17 crew members. Will post more about it this month. But, pleased to report that directing is the hardest fucking thing ever.
I wouldn’t go to space even if I was invited because I know what’s my business and what’s not

From the bottom of my heart. I need Thelma Schoonmaker to win the Academy Award for Best Film Editing for Killers of the Flower Moon (2023). 3 hour 26 minute film and every cut feels as if it was sliced by a feather.
Yesterday, my Mom sent me this picture of her from before she even met my Dad. I find things like this so incredible and strange because it’s just a vibrant reminder that, yes, our parents existed entirely before and wholly without us. Pat Free (1982).
I find such strange comfort in that. If you’re a truly new voice, you will not be greeted with instant acceptance. In fact, you will mostly meet the opposite. It reminds me of how “Never Too Much” was just a demo Luther was using to get signed. Now, it’s eternal.
You know how after a football game, coaches review tape with their players? I’d genuinely watch Hook (1991) with people who think it’s Spielberg’s worst. I’d go to this scene and try to understand why they don’t think this is one of the greatest villain introductions ever.
One of my favorite uses of cinema since I was a teen. Films made by filmmakers who understood & presented the characters, stories, world views in a way I didn't have access to in my life. How it would change the world if more people would be open to more fully seeing this way
I feel like cinema allows us access to experiences we might not ever know. Here, the premise alone felt tough. The idea your fading mother can come to love you for the woman she sees you as but only because she doesn’t recognize you as her child. Heartbreaking.
The older you get, the more you choose calm over chaos and distance over disrespect. You have absolutely no desire for conflict or drama, and your peace becomes your ultimate priority. You start surrounding yourself with people who are good for your mental health, heart and soul.
Marriage takes work. It takes learning new skills like open communication, conflict resolution, and coping mechanisms around past trauma. We romanticize marriage and have expectations about 'riding off into the sunset.' This isn't how marriage works.
I know that I’m getting old. Because any time I see a family picture and everyone is just dressed up and smiling. I’m always like. What a beautiful family.
after 4 yrs of teaching for CUNY's bilingual program, I stepped down last Spring my time with #orgullobilingüe shaped my work & journalistic spirit in more ways that I can name @clauirizarry will soon join the faculty and I couldn't be more excited, big, big fan👇🏽
“Journalism is at its best when it’s collaborative — working for communities, not speaking at them.” @clauirizarry, alumni speaker for the Class of 2022. #newmarkj22
Been reading about shows pulled entirely off of streamers. I’d encourage directors, writers and actors to just tell their lawyer to “ask for DVDs” when negotiating your agreement. It’s a simple request that studios pretty customarily agree to and gets you a physical copy.
Every time I remember that Shakespeare was not particularly revered during his time, I remind myself that the point of art is not the praise of the present. But, to bury land mines of passion so that the future may find them.
@Mars_Ama Instagram is the same handle. Have actually been using the hell out of Stories and posting, I don’t even know what to call them. Visual essays? But also will be on Twitter until it goes down!
Parents first time visiting me in LA since I moved here. Told them I made brunch reservations but really had bought first row Laker tickets for us instead. Probably my favorite thing I’ve accomplished since moving here.
Stay away from people who have an issue with your healing and happiness but were cool with you when you were sick and depressed…. Them ain’t your people! Love you!
One of the biggest lessons in life is being able to distinguish between the stories other people have created about you and the truth you come to know of yourself.
I hope you find someone who speaks your language so you don't have to spend a lifetime translating your spirit.
