Nikki Giovanni, revolutionary poet and voice of Black resilience, has died at 81. Tonight, we mourn the passing of Nikki Giovanni, a trailblazing poet, writer, professor, and activist whose words sparked movements and inspired generations. She leaves behind a legacy as vast as her talent and as deep as her love for Black people, culture, and humanity. Rest In Peace, Queen.👑 (You Did, Nikki Giovanni.)
I didn't watch the special with Jamie Foxx. I will watch it. My mother and sister had a stroke. My mother was left impaired on the left side. And it was a long recovery for her and she never was the same. God rest her soul. My sister passed away from her stroke. Strokes are detrimental and can be fatal. To those who survive God bless you. Continue to be well.
Nikki Giovanni was one of my favorite poets and female speakers, she came to my highschool when I won a poetry contest she inspired me to keep writing.
Glad Jamie Foxx is recovered and able to tell his story in his own way. Everyone is entitled to privacy and that should always be respected. Congrats to Dexter and his wife❤
RIP to Queen Nikki. I had the pleasure of meeting her at Bus Boys and Poets in DC. I was able to get her to sign my book and get a picture. I was honored to meet her.🎉🎉🎉🎉 I loved the Jamie Foxx stand up! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I had the opportunity to see Nikki Giovanni in person several years ago What a great honor to hear and see her face to face. Her words were very inspiring and left an indelible impact on my life. Rest in peace oh great one. There will never be another like you. 🙏🏽❤️
Hugs Patti & Toya, RIP Nikki Giovanni her poems made us proud. I don't need to see Jamie foxx's special I figured it must have been a stroke glad he's better. My brother had several .
Hi Everyone, Congratulations to Dexter and his Wife Fatima on your bundle of joy.❤❤ So sorry to hear about Nikki Giovanni. She was so awesome. Listened and watched her many times. Such an intelligent woman. Condolences to her family. I will be watching the Christmas special tomorrow. Thank you Ms. Patty. Be safe everyone.
I was so so blessed as a military mommie to have my nurse mom-n-law spend 2 weeks with me.She put rice cereal in my crying babies bottle too! God bless mother Trudie!
It’s making me tear up Patty about Jamie. This is making me think about when I first got sick. My daughter was there for me. Without her I would not be here.
Patty, I’m so glad that you and Jamey got your lives back after your strokes. That’s a blessing. Meanwhile, poor Sinbad is still recovering and I wish he and his family all the best.
Mini Giovanni was my favourite poet "if trees could ta!o. " the truth album is one of my favorites as a teen. I got to meet her at our black history club at school. She loved my poetry and brings and encouraged me to continue to write. I did but not as a career. Sending condolences to her family, friends and fans
Congratulations to Dexter and Fatima on the birth of baby Dakota. R.I.P to Nikki Giovanni and Thom Christopher, who played Carlo Hesser and Mortimer Bern on One Life to Live.
Blu Ivy is 12, and I thought she was dressed too grown! Blu looks 21. She's a very beautiful child, but the mother & grandmother dressed her tooooo grown for a 12 old!!! Jamie's Netflix special was most heart-wrenching special that Ive seen in a long time. His baby girl playing the guitar and singing with him had me boo-hooing😢❤. "Welcome back Jamie Foxx, and God is good all the time." 🙏🏽🥰
Auntie, may she rest in paradise the legend Nickki Giovanni. Her works for the betterment of all women was outstanding! Her poetic legacy will live on forever! Auntie Jamie Foxx special had me crying and laughing at the same time watching his Netflix special. May GOD continue to bless him with favor and good health. Family always meet the mark when necessary! I am so very proud of Ms. Sha - Carri Richardson and her new journey! Congrats to you!! Auntie, another great segement with you and Chocolate Divinty! Have a blessed and beautiful Tuesday!
Congratulations on that bundle of joy Dexter. I’m sure she’s beautiful like you and your wife thank you beautiful ladies were keeping us posted on everything that’s going on in this crazy world. God bless you both. Have a wonderful and blessed day.❤
Hi Patti & Toya❤️. One thing is for sure, a man will embarrass you at sometime in your relationship 🙄. I know Beyoncé,mom and Solange are not happy with him even if it a rumor but where there’s smoke there’s fire🤷🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️
Hi 👋🏿 guys best of everything to you both. Congratulations 🎉 Jamie Foxx. Great job 👏🏾 Surcarrey! Congratulations 🎉 Dexter and new family baby. Enjoy that new baby. It is Joy!
My fiancé had a stroke at only 40 years old….it was the saddest experience ever! I was so scared and I couldn’t stop crying 😢although he survived he never recovered 😢😢😢 Patty I’m so glad you survived ❤️
I just watched the Jamie Foxx Special & Thought it was AWESOME!!!! What a testimony!!!! I was in tears. Great show Jamie!!! Mama Tina - Just stay off social media. Oh this is NOT GOING DOWN LIKE DIDDY,regarding JayZ. Blue looking older than 13 but beautiful!!!!
Glad🙏🏽Jamie’s better. 20 days💔? Jmo but all strokes are serious. I was only in intensive care for a week after a stroke & it took me a year of PT to learn how to walk & talk again.
I never forget bringing my daughter home from the hospital.. I told my mom I need a box of rice cereal 😂😂😂 look I learned from my first nephew crying belly hungry...
Hello Lovely Ladies! Have a wonderful week… I haven’t heard of Nikki Giovanni - I will look her up. I hadn’t heard the saying “the oil is already in the milk”. So educational! Blessings to you and your families.
Frankly, those of us from previous generations did expect any army of “helpers” immediate family came through; advised if the baby is sleeping, you nap, too!
Patty, you teared up watching Jamie Foxx. I out and out stuffy nose, red-eyes, throat closed cried. I was a mess. ( I am also a crier, so there's that).
REST EASY MS GIOVANNI ❤

Aunt Patti, you are so right about people lying 🤥 when they say they will help you when baby comes.
Glad🙏🏽Jamie’s better. 20 days💔? Jmo but all strokes are serious. I was only in intensive care for a week after a stroke & it took me a year of PT to learn how to walk & talk again.
I started reading her books at 12 yrs old
Watched Jamie special it is so good very emotional & funny.. loved it..
I never forget bringing my daughter home from the hospital.. I told my mom I need a box of rice cereal 😂😂😂 look I learned from my first nephew crying belly hungry...
The statute of limitations may be up for the criminal case and not for the civil case and he probably knows that. Beyonce 16 when they dated hmmm
I watched the special, it was lovely and emotional. Jamie is still Jamie. No clones
So glad you're doing great
Congratulations to Dexter and his wife 🥳❤
Toya is really looking good congratulations to Dexter on his beautiful bundle of joy Auntie Patty is looking good also
