Today, on the 27th day of International Black Women’s History Month, we lift our voices in celebration and recognition of the divine courage woven into the lives of Black women. Their stories are not just tales of survival—they are testimonies of purpose, power, and perseverance.

She may not lift mountains, fly at supersonic speeds, or command thunder. But Debrii’s power lies in her mind, her mouth, her courage, and her refusal to stay silent — even when the cost is high.

For the 24th day of International Black Women’s History Month, I’m spotlighting a film that roars with creative fire and historical truth: Bessie (2015). This powerful HBO biopic, directed by Dee Rees and starring the incomparable Queen Latifah, tells the story of one of the most iconic voices in American music—Bessie Smith, the “Empress of the Blues.”

Today marks a powerful moment in my journey. It is the 23rd day of International Black Women’s History Month, and it is also my 200th official Tony Post. That’s right—200 posts of faith, fire, and unwavering purpose. Over these 200 entries, I’ve poured out pieces of my heart, told the stories God gave me, and used my platform to shine a light on spiritual truth and the undeniable strength of Black women. With today’s post, I go even deeper.

When you think of “Power Girl,” you might think of Kryptonian strength, flying fists, and world-shaking heroics. But in the world of DC Comics, there’s a second Power Girl — a brilliant, gifted, and groundbreaking Black teenage genius who took the name and made it her own: Tanya Spears.

I’m celebrating a show that brought laughter, healing, and the complexities of Black womanhood to our screens in a fresh and unforgettable way: Half & Half.

Black women have long sown in struggle—but they have reaped in strength.

We reflect on both a pivotal moment in American history and a powerful legacy that still echoes today.

We honor the unseen, the divine, and the intercessors—the Black women who carry light into dark places, who show up just when we need them.

We pause to reflect on the unseen battle many women face daily—not against the world, but within themselves. That silent enemy is fear.

Metaphors and similes are the secret spices of storytelling. Used sparingly, they bring life, color, and texture to your writing.

Women are the pillars of faith, strength, and love in families, carrying the weight of generations while paving the way for the future.

I’m celebrating Living Single —a trailblazing sitcom that showcased Black women as successful, independent, and supportive of one another.

God’s favor grants influence, and throughout history, we see how women have used that influence to impact the world in powerful ways.
