A Black Queen Ascends to the Throne!!!


Behold...Lupita Nyongo, a Black Queen in the truest since!! 
 
After Queen Lupita captured the Oscar for her role as Patsy in 12 Years A Slave, she gave an acceptance speech as heartfelt as her award-winning performance. A dear friend confided that it brought her to tears.  No doubt, the same was true for many others.
 
We often use the term "Black Queen" in a fashion that renders it virtually meaningless. But, while we don't know Ms. Nyongo personally, she has publicly comported herself in a way deserving of such high praise.
 
If you doubt her "queen-worthiness", take the time to listen to this speech given during the Essence Women of Hollywood celebration.  If you weren't moved last night at the Academy Awards, you most certainly will be misty and mystified after listening to her on this night.



I am profoundly impressed with Lupita Nyongo!! There is nothing left to say!!


Until we rendezvous...

Peace!!
