- 2/2 Sometimes u must create yr own job when the market doesn’t have what u need. This concept frightens some ppl but it’s true. WIT 2 thrive #
- 1/2 Final thoughts: Some ppl think entrepreneurship is just 4 the wealthy & white. Not true. I know POC who started businesses with no $. #
- 2/2 If U R unwilling 2 adapt, 2 learn new skills (many free online resources) & refuse 2 network, yr making it easy 4 companies 2 ignore u. #
- I know that it’s more than despair that keeps many people unemployed. Racism, classism, sexism & other prejudices are barriers. BUT - 1/2 #
- 3/3 Stopping a job search out of despair is not the solution. Changing your strategy is. Only stop temporarily to improve your strategy. #
- 2/3 In ‘05 I didn’t have a degree, was new to NYC w/ no contacts in media & applied to 300 jobs in one month alone. Two called, I got one. #
- An @nprnews article said more people are giving up their job hunt because they’re “discouraged.†I get that, but giving up earns $0. 1/2 #

- 2/2 My advice 2 all ppl who email me about employment=never stop teaching yourself new skills, diversify your network & practice self care. #
- 1/2 In 2010 I tried 2 convince my unemployed exec friend 2 create an online presence & portfolio. 2 years later she’s just starting that. #
- 2/2 I am lucky I have a staff gig w benefits but when I didn’t I was teaching myself new skills & relentlessly applying & networking. #
- Past 4 years prove it: having a degree doesn’t guarantee employment. If U aren’t always adapting/learning new skills, you can’t compete 1/2 #
- You better believe that @buzzfeed et al will have the best #iPhone5 cray cray tweets. It’s funny how sites make $ on public cray outbursts. #
- I’m just having #insomnia fun, #iPhone5 lovers. It’s your money. But these tweets are hilarious, especially the very angry ones. #

- TBH, I wasn’t very interested in actively analyzing/discussing politics until 9/11. After that I started paying more attention. #neverforget #
- I was on the highway in Northern Cali when I 1st realized, via news radio. At work we watched the news all day, ppl prayed. #neverforget #
- I watched Dark Shadows, starring Johnny Depp, on the plane yesterday. It was campy & had a great soundtrack. It got really silly at the end. #
- I love these “@webjournalist: Track how The xx's new album goes viral starting with one fan: http://t.co/0nBSpVrv #coexist € #
- I would rather lose all 2k+ of my followers than not share my perspective on current issues. I’m not here to win a popularity contest :) #
- Jay-Z is not untouchable. Neither is #ows But Jay-Z’s not the mayor of NYC or sicking his army on POC. Let’s protest that some more, yeah? #
- Google it :) “@ShaunaReporter: @lyneka @dcap srry to crash this tweet. People are wanting to boycott Jay Z because of his #OWS comments?†#
- Again, I’m not defending Jay-Z. I’m questioning the effectiveness of further dividing #ows supporters over petty comments thru a protest. #
- U & many others I’m sure. “@lyneka: @dcap But, then again, I have a host of issues with Jay-Z that go well beyond his comments about #OWS †#
- I agree. However, that’s not always the case. “@lyneka: @dcap I think people have the capability to multitask when it comes to activism.†#
- Again, I’ve lost some followers for speaking my mind and that is fine. I didn’t join Twitter to preach to the choir. Discourse is useful. #
- 2/2 Jay-Z was speaking on real issues affecting the 99% for years. He’s not an idiot. Protesting his request for clarity=waste of time, IMHO #
- I am in no way defending Jay-Z 4 speaking 2 the press b4 he took an hour to self educate on #ows but I won’t support a boycott. 1/2 #
- Often slacktivism takes the form of boycotting celebrities for the dumb things they say. It’s easier 2 do that then actually work 1:1 w ppl. #
- Here’s my POV: instead of boycotting Jay-Z, which won’t change anything, I’m going to cont. to serve those in need thru direct action. #
- That’s your right. “@lyneka: @dcap I support boycotting Jay-Z and I’m not a member of #OWS and Iâ€m definitely a person of color.†#
- 4/4 it’s counterproductive & privileged tactics like protesting Jay-Z that discredit the #ows movement & alienate POC, IMHO. #
- 3/4 however #ows protesting Jay-Z is such a useless act of privilege out of touch w real needs that I am face palming x 100. #
- 2/2 I think Jay-Z’s questions are valid but he cd have answered them himself by doing a little research. cont 3/4 #
- The complicated part about #ows but also the liberating part, is there isn’t one message. That’s hard for black/white thinkers to grasp 1/2 #
- .@jaysonrodriguez Protesting Jay-Z doesn’t make any sense-waste of time. I’m not happy w his comments or how #ows is responding. Face palm. in reply to jaysonrodriguez #

- I’ve been thinking about going to London in December to connect w POC & allies 4 @POCZineProject. If I can get funding/time off, I’ll do it. #
- I know plenty of women of color who are incredible feminists in their words & deeds but refuse label of feminist & I don’t judge. I get it. #
- Nevertheless, I refuse 2let handful of white women in denial re: privilege deny me my feminist identity. It’s mine & I draw strength from it #
- Sometimes being a POC feminist feels like what I can only imagine it feels like to be a gay republican. Welcome/not welcome/never the same. #
- At airport contemplating my feminist identity & how I work hard2not say “fuck it†& abandon it when white feminists go HAM w white privilege #
