Thee Muhfuckin' WHOOPI GOLDBERG

 Dear Ms. Goldberg,

    I've been a fan since the first time I saw you in 1985 in The Color of Purple.  I wasn't even 10 years old yet and there you were with skin like mine shining bright on a big screen.  Oh, how I was so mesmerized by every word and from that moment on I could not get enough of watching you in and on EVERYTHING.  And still, today, you are the same hero I saw then as a child.  Your truth, honesty, vulnerability, and courage to be who you are... How you unapologetically reflect the principles you stand on, liberates me.  

In today's society we have this thing called, "the cancel culture".  Not sure if they are trying to align you in it but know this; you have a tribe of people that uplift you despite ANYTHING.  You are the hope and the dream, you are a Queen.  So, on your "break" from your daytime gig just know that we await seeing your face anywhere.  You can literally start a podcast TODAY and we will all be there to listen to you share your point of views.  We are your audience.

In the meantime, for those who forgot.  Please review and be reminded how Ms. Whoopi is a MAJOR part of Black History:
