      I feel like I haven’t “seen” you in awhile. Hope you’re well.

      Maybe I just haven’t seen your comments but I’ve missed you.

      Come to #twinja if you’re on twitter?

      They’re all dressed like eccentric older ladies that collect art.

      Wow. A lot of the news so far this year has been hard to watch, but this is truly an amazing time. Moments like this give me hope.

    YASSS. I love this Beyoncé. I finally connect with her as an artist. Lemonade did it for me. Fucking badass. She makes me feel like a natural woman.

      I've said this before and so have others, but before Lemonade, I didn't connect to her perfectly-curated image. Lemonade felt so raw and emotional and had something real to say.

    And then Erykah and Bilal, then Chloe X Halle, and then J. Hud, and then Janelle... And Jesse Williams’ speech. So much goodness.
    And Usher’s about to start...........

      There were Prince tributes all throughout the night, like six or seven, and her performance was one of them.

      This is what I live for.

      And:

      “The burden of the brutalized is not to comfort the bystander. That’s not our job. Alright, stop with all that. If you have a critique for the resistance, for our resistance, then you better have an established record of critique of our oppression. If you have no interest in equal rights for black people, then do not make suggestions to those who do. Sit down.”

        In Lemonade, the painting on the dancers mimicked tonight are done by a Nigerian artist named Laolu Senbajo: http://www.thefader.com/2016/04/24/mee...

        Also, I think someone else mentions it, in Lemonade a Mardi Gras Indian is also a focal point:
