@JazyYazi Yazmin Monet Watkins – Note To Self

Yazmin Monet Watkins is one poet that I can really rock with. She is a Black, bisexual poet and spoken word artist. Recently I discovered her youtube channel and I must tell you that she is one powerful poet. Yazmin’s eloquence reveals her beauty, intelligence, and her boldness to speak about sexuality, religion, empowerment, and love.
In a recent performance of her work “Note to Self” she empowers us to value ourselves and that we are brilliant. Yazmin especially empowers women everywhere. Get into “Note to Self” below.

The LEGENDARY Late Great Octavia St. Laurent….
We lost Octavia St. Laurent back in 2009 but thanks to Youtube & ‘Paris Is Burning’ (along with it’s sequel ‘How Do I Look’), she lives forever. Check out this video montage in which she talks about what it is to be a transgender woman and shades Eddie Murphy in the process!
