I really hope there will be a rise in power. For too long there has been endless doubters and naysaying in terms of Black women's ability to take leadership positions. I recently had a conversation with an exasperated friend who complained of having to train someone who will, no doubt, leap over her to a higher position. This woman assumed that my friend is younger. Not only is this not the case but my friend is far more credentialed than this person. Many of us can relate to someone assuming we're younger because why else would someone be held in place?

I would love if people would ask Stacey Abrams what she needs to do the work that she has been doing for the last three years at a more efficient pace and just get out of her way.

In the meantime, thousands more are falling victim to this virus...and thousands more are dying.

 

Even as he's on his way out, Donald Trump is determined to kill us all.

      They're neither great nor terrible AFAIK, but it is more a question of the streaming numbers in this day and age vs. actual TV airings. The Chibnall era reminded me much more of the crisis years, but I do think it's a very real possibility now as well due to the streaming bubble collapse affecting the show and its prospects.

      ANYTHING to get her off the screen..she COULD have been interesting if she and Van had a few face offs..(there was a mild one of her going back to work...but I wanted something meatier "Bitch, I am Vanessa Chamberlain and I don't take advice from someone who followed the..career path you did!" I did like Alex's outright disdain for her.

      Doctor Who

      Thanks @Vee for the commentary.    I haven’t even watched this season yet after  I couldn’t get past the couple episodes last season…like it was too Disneyified for my taste, although I did think it was a least better than the Chibnall era (but so is a lot of things). I’ll probably go back and binge it now. Hoping this season ends on a high note. I did read the ratings are terrible. As it stands I’m beginning to feel like what long time DW fans felt with S26 in 1989.

      I also never understood Alex's friendship with Sonni or keeping the secret of Marah's paternity.  Not exactly heartbroken about Ms. Sally being ushered to the Hereafter.

        I'm sorry but I'm a glutton for punishment. Would love to see this woman OWNING the canvas. Telling off Leslie who tells her she's the head b!tch.

      And in case anyone is confused; Rusty was hired by HB to work undercover and infiltrate some gang sabotaging Lewis.
