    Hey Jen! Just wanted to say that you are awesome. Thank you for not caring about losing followers or supporters. It feels amazing to follow someone, with a large following, that isn’t afraid to stand up to things. I know your kids will see that 💕
    My concentration in college was Social Justice and I have a few other resources that I wanna mention to anyone interested. The Kalief Browder story, on netflix, is another great one. I also have a couple of books I wanna recommend. The New Jim Crow by Michelle Alexander (she spoke in the 13th documentary) is another powerful resource that really opened my eyes in college.
    I also just finished reading a fiction book, Small Great Things by Jodi Picoult. It’s not a true story, but like The Hate U Give, it very much could be and is based about so many injustices we see.
    Thanks again Jen ❤️

    Jen, Thank you! I’m Puerto Rican and my husband is Black. I pray everyday when my husband leaves the house that Father God protects him. Because of some health issues he cannot put his arms behind his back or get on his knees. I am terrified that if he were pulled over he would be killed by law enforcement. Again, thank you for what you are doing!

    Honestly discovering you and your channel was the best thing that happened to me during quarantine. I am not married, have no kids and live in a big city-the opposite of you, yet I love your videos. You keep it real-thank you for contributing to an important cause ✊🏼

    Jen, I can honestly say I have never watched all of the ads in a video before. Moving forward I will watch every single add on ALL of your videos. You have shown where your heart is and took a risk that many are too scared to take. Thank you for using your voice and your platform to spread love.

    Hey Jen, this means so much to me as I realize a lot of the channels I subscribe to here on UA-cam have stayed completely silent about this matter that is so deeply personal to me as a black woman. Thank you.

    You are truly amazing and thank you so much for sharing your heart ❤️ My husband is African American and we have two little boys. It aches the very core of my heart to see something like this take place but knowing we live in society where racism still exist. 😞 And you’re absolutely right, just talking about by posting something on social media isn’t enough. This has caused me to exam my own heart and what I should do to help contribute to making a change. I love you so much!!! Don’t ever stop being you!!! Your light is way to beautiful to not shine or be hidden! Be a light in a dark world ♥️♥️♥️♥️

  • @fit2bjustme
    @fit2bjustme 4 роки тому +1

    Hey Jen I just wanted to say thank you for your authenticity and I appreciate you even having the conversation. Many people on UA-cam would avoid it, for fear of losing subscribers, but you didn't and that just solidifies why I like you. Again thank you for having the kahuna's to speak because it will take everyone having the uncomfortable conversation about race in order for there to ever be a resolve to it.
    Thank you again

You’ve always struck me as a kindhearted, good person and the stand that you’re taking now for people of color just underscores that! We need more people like you in this world that walk the talk to be the change we want to see! Thanks, again, for being such a wonderful human! 💕

    Thank you, Jen, for your activism and for putting your money where your mouth is. As the mom of two fine young black men (17 and 13), my husband and I have had to teach them from a young age how to handle different situations they will face because of the color of their skin. It’s heartening to see so many people coming together to finally address the racism that has long pervaded our country. I echo your sentiment: it’s important to keep this movement going and the best way to do so is to educate & to VOTE!
    P.S.: We love that breakfast pizza.

    @loveandlife4222 4 роки тому

    One of the best things we can also do to make change is by teaching in our own homes. Teaching our children all throughout their lives about love, kindness, no racial inequality, pointing out injustices as we see them and having discussions about how wrong it is and what should have been done differently. Imagine the change in our future country if every family would do that. I think the home is the biggest teaching tool for change. 🥰
    I agree with every person needs to vote. I encourage everyone to vote!
    Those meatballs and spaghetti look delicious!! My husband got a hankering for gumbo so we just made a big pot of sausage, chicken, and seafood gumbo. So yummy!

Thank you also for encouraging us to educate ourselves, I'm a white woman living in the UK and racism filters into every aspect of our society - Europe has no reason to feel superior or apart from the US in this. Any white person who thinks they are one of the 'good guys' should read Me and White Supremacy by Layla Saad, I found it both challenging and powerful. Thanks again Jen, I love your channel.
