    Yes, tell the story before it’s illegal to mention the s**** trade. Viola looks fierce.

    The real Dora Milaje!

    Major flop…Black women ruin cities and nations. Look at Lori Lightfoot, Kamala Harris, Keisha Lance Bottoms, Muriel Bowser, London Breed, LaToya Cantrell…

    As much as i hated the idea of her playing Michelle Obama i absolutely love her in this role even more. Viola might sweep the awards season this year with this brilliant performance.

    This is who inspired the Amazons in Wonder Woman and the Dora Milaje in Black Panther.

    Racists are going to be MADT!

    That was a TRAILER. Whew.

    Viola….A TRUE Performer.

    So refreshing to see Women do more than perform on stage in 👠 bent over.
