For #ChadwickBoseman

I envisioned? No, expected to meet him and say

“We went to see Black panther and left the cinema talking about building Wakanada - and we did - it’s called Pocc” 1/7

The conversation would continue with me explaining what Pocc is and what it does and the best part of this interaction would be watching as his eyes light up realising how far his work had reached. 2/7

When I’m asked about Pocc I always say “ We went to see black panther - and asked where is Wakanda “ I like to do this because it’s true, it’s a testament to what representation can inspire 3/7

and also to watch for nervous laughs for those that don’t get it - a sign that we are in the wrong room talking to the wrong people. 4/7

Before I round up this thread - it’s important to insert my friend Jennifer words on this loss

“ You better do what ever the fuck you wanna do “ 5/7

I say all of that with help from Jennifer to say this - nothing is promised and by you being your authentic self and practising your passion, your joy - your impact is limitless. 6/7

The incapability to quantify your impact is what has these pale stale men in government and at the top of companies trying their best to make you boxed shaped. Fuck that.

DO WHAT EVER THE FUCK YOU WANNA DO.
