Vice President Harris Gives Jarring Reality Check During HBCU Commencement Speech

Vice President Harris Speaks At College Commencement

Vice President Kamala Harris gives graduates a jarring reality check during her HBCU commencement speech.

The VP left some college graduates with a sobering picture of the “unsettled” world they’re heading into. She discussed the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine and the possibility Roe v. Wade may be overturned by the Supreme Court during a commencement speech Saturday at Tennessee State University.

“Graduates, I look at this unsettled world and yes, I can see the challenges, but I’m here to tell you that I see the opportunities. The opportunities for your leadership. The future of our country and our world will be shaped by you.”

Harris stated that “the certainty of fundamental principles,” like territorial integrity and bodily autonomy, are being called into question. She ended the speech by congratulating the class of 2022 on their achievements despite the ongoing pandemic.

“Here in the United States, we are once again forced to defend fundamental principles that we hoped were long settled; principles like the freedom to vote, the rights of women to make decisions about their own body, what constitutes the truth,” she said.

Harris is also set to give a commencement speech May 18 at the U.S. Coast Guard Academy. Share your thoughts with us on social media.

The “Flip The Switch” rapper played quarterback in high school and has found a way to give back to the youth in Atlanta. This year, Quavo upped the ante and donated $150,000 to the Tender Foundation in support of single moms.

Jaycina Almond, Founder of Tender Foundation said, “At Tender, we’re bridging the financial gap and providing a safety net for single moms living on the margins here in Atlanta. Our core programming consists of emergency bill pay assistance with rent, utilities, and childcare; providing Grocery store gift cards and operating a diaper bank. Now, with Quavo’s help, we’re able to pilot a new initiative called The Bridge.”

The Bridge is a guaranteed income program founded on the premise that every mother deserves the opportunity to parent without the stress of survival. The Bridge is a step toward establishing equity and disrupting generational poverty for Black women and their families.

Kim Kardashian

Marilyn Monroe’s estate is happy that 41-year-old reality star, Kim Kardashian wore her dress to the Met Gala. President/CMO of Authentic Brands Group Nick Woodhouse, who runs Monroe’s estate, told TMZ, the late star would have celebrated the rewear and cited the similarities between the two powerhouse women.

The Skims founder wore the same dress Monroe wore while famously singing “Happy Birthday Mr. President” to President John F. Kennedy in 1962.

Some critics were upset she wore the prestigious dress to an outing where it could be ruined. The dress originally cost $12,000 and was created around Marilyn Monroe, who was sewn into it as it was made. However after former Mrs. West walked the red carpet, she changed into a replica dress for the actual event.

Yo Gotti has announced the comeback of his annual “Yo Gotti & Friends Birthday Bash” performance in Memphis. On Friday, July 15, 2022, at FedEx Forum in Memphis, TN, the CMG mogul is assembling an all-star ensemble of friends and partners to perform at the 8th edition of the event.

“Birthday Bash is back and it’s going to be better than ever,” Yo Gotti said. “I have a few surprises and special performances for my hometown family, but just know that I’m gonna keep putting on for the city that raised me. The energy at FedEx Forum will be unforgettable and fans won’t want to miss it.”

Megan Thee Stallion, Lil Baby, Nicki Minaj, Lil Wayne, Meek Mill, Rick Ross, T.I., City Girls, Jeezy, Monica, Gucci Mane, Polo G, Boosie Badazz, Master P, NLE Choppa, and others have all performed at the star-studded event in prior years.

Members of Gotti’s legendary CMG record label, including Moneybagg Yo, 42 Dugg, Blac Youngsta, and Big Boogie, performed at the most recent Birthday Bash in 2019. Gotti has grown the CMG empire since then, signing EST Gee, Mozzy, Lil Poppa, 10%, and, most recently, R&B artist Lehla Samia on May 1.

The annual tradition began in 2013, and as Gotti’s popularity grew – and he was able to acquire some of the biggest names in music to play at Birthday Bash – he finally took the show to new heights and to the FedEx Forum, home of the Memphis Grizzlies, in 2017.

Gotti’s 11th studio album, CM10: Free Game, was released earlier this year and opened at No. 3 on the Billboard 200, making it Gotti’s highest-charting album in his illustrious career. It was his first album since January 2020, and it had songs like “Cold Gangsta,” “Ya Bih,” “Dolla Fo’ Dolla,” and others.

DSC 2346 8e123a16 b96f 4ad3 8704 daa3f7445a7a

The City of Los Angeles and Didi Hirsch, the premier provider of whole-person mental health and crisis care, honored Jhené Aiko as a Mental Health Is Health Ambassador on the steps of City Hall on Friday, April 29th.

“There’s no coincidence that we are on this earth with billions of others and there’s no reason anyone should feel alone in anything that they’re going through,” Jhené Aiko said. “It’s important that we’re there for one another to help each other get through this journey because it can be beautiful.”

Aiko has had her fair share of mental health challenges. She has spoken up about her anxiety, despair, and unresolved trauma in public. As a form of personal treatment, she began composing lyrics and making music, translating her anguish and suffering into art. She reinforced at the MHIHM pronouncement that life is a journey, and it can be difficult at times, but it’s easier when you’re not alone.

Jhené Aiko has joined MTV Entertainment Group, and Adia Fadaei, a 19-year-old student and crisis volunteer at Didi Hirsch, as a Mental Health Youth Ambassador. Selena Gomez, Bebe Rexha, and Kid Cudi have all been Didi Hirsch ambassadors in the past, but Jhene Aiko was the first to be honored on the city’s steps for the first-ever Mental Health is Health Month Proclamation.

You can see the images from the event below and learn more about Didi Hirsch here.
