What does it truly mean to be Black?  At Timberlake High Zuri is constantly reminded from her peers and staff that her long dreadlocks and hazelnut skin is not welcomed nor appreciated.  Timberlake High student population is ninety-one percent white.   There aren't many minorities.  The only reason Zuri and the other nine percent of the population attend that prestigious school is because the school needs to look 'diverse.' 

Black History Month is coming up and Timberlake High is having its first Black History Program.  Zuri was assigned to be the choreographer but struggles to cooperate with her ignorant white director.  One of her best friends (Maya) also struggles with separating 'Hood Maya' from 'Prep Maya.'

Ms. A is the only black teacher at Timberlake High and is known for her high passing rates as an AP Lang teacher.

One phone call changes her life dragging her back to her homeland "Zuhana."  (Pronunciation:  Zoo-ana.  The 'h' is silent.)  Zuri, Ashanti, and Maya nosy selves end up making Ms. A bring them with her.  Mrs. A also end's up bringing an entire class to Zuhana as an upperclassmen field trip.  The purpose of the field trip was to inform the students about her culture and to show the beauty of being black. 

Zuri uses this trip as inspiration for her choreography.  Unexpectedly, she also makes friends with one of Zuhana's royals.  But who knows, maybe it turns to more than just a friendship.  Follow Zuri, her best friends, and Mrs. A along their journey to discover what it means to be truly black, beautiful, and empowering.All Rights Reserved

It also broke my heart when I decided to follow you home, and saw the hardship life you were living." "In a nutshell," I wanted her to hit the nail on the head.

"Which involves being me." ~°~°~°~°~ Uyai is far from being rich. And when we talk about far, we meant FAR. Uyai wasn't a people person.

Love is just a word until someone comes along and gives it a memory... You know you're in love when you can say anything to the person and you know they won't laugh at you. When you can see their face when you close your eyes. When you can still feel their arms around you holding you tight after they're gone. When you can still taste their kiss after you have said goodbye. You can tell you're in love when you miss them before they're gone. When their voice lingers in your ears. When their presence eases any pain. When their name sends chills down your spin. When they're the only thing you can think about. You know you're in love when you can see all their hopes and dreams and their soul when you look into their eyes. When they call you at four in the morning to say, "I Love You" and mean it. When your tears stain not only their shirt, but also their heart. When even a simple chore done with them can become a lasting memory. Ultimately, you know you're in love when you can't imagine living without them and can't figure how did you live before you knew them. When they fulfill every need and without them you're incomplete. The love of someone else completes the heart, and sound and mind all at once. 𝐝𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝟓, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟎-𝐟𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝟏𝟎, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟏
