Source: Mint Images / Getty White Restaurant Owner Only Sentenced 10 Years For Enslaving Black Man We’re warning you now, this story is going to REALLY piss you off. According to CNN , the manager of a South Carolina restaurant, Bobby Paul Edwards, has been sentenced to only ten years in prison for torturing and enslaving a mentally ill Black man named John Christopher Smith for, wait for it, SEVENTEEN YEARS! Smith began washing dishes at J and J Cafeteria in Conway, South Cack as a 12-year-old boy, when Edwards took over as manager, his life turned into a living hell. Edwards yelled racial epithets at Smith, beat him with a belt, hit him with pots and pans, and burned him with scalding hot tongs to “make him work faster”. In a WPDE interview, Smith says he was afraid to lose his job so he did whatever Smith told him, including being confined to a back room whenever his family would come into the restaurant. “I wanted to get out of there a long time ago. But I didn’t have nobody I could go to,” he said. He said he was denied access even to his own family. “I couldn’t go anywhere. I couldn’t see none of my family so that was that,” he said. “That’s the main basic thing I wanted to see was my mom come see me. I couldn’t see my mom…and I couldn’t talk to nobody.” Edwards is almost 40-years-old now and he would have never been freed from his slavery if not for a customer who called police after noticing a bevy of scars on his hands and body as he brought them their food. “It is almost inconceivable that instances of forced labor endure in this country to this day — a century and a half after the Emancipation Proclamation,” said Assistant Attorney General Eric Dreiband of the Civil Rights Division. “The Department of Justice will continue to investigate, prosecute, and convict human traffickers involved in forced labor, seeking justice on behalf of their victims.” In a press release, the U.S. Department of Justice announced that Edwards was sentenced to a decade in prison FOR SLAVERY and forced to pay Mr. Smith $272,952.96 in restitution. Only. Ten. Years. FOR SLAVERY. We hate it here.

That’s just it. We weren’t selling anything in the beginning. We were just selling ourselves and selling ourselves on the idea – selling ourselves on ourselves, you know? I’m not trying to sell you me. I’m trying to sell you, you.” View this post on Instagram “I want you to know that if you can love me, you can love your goddamn self.” Born in Detroit to a religious family and raised in Texas, Melissa Jefferson, a.k.a.

A post shared by British Vogue (@britishvogue) on Nov 7, 2019 at 9:16am PST On dealing with anxiety, Lizzo added: “When I get really, really anxious before a show, I just go harder and harder and harder when I’m performing and I just go crazy,” she says. “I don’t know why, but my anxiety sometimes fuels who I am as a performer and who I am as an artist – and I know that is not the case for everyone. I don’t know if my body just, like, out of a desperate need to find a place for my anxiety or find a use for it, takes it and puts it there,” the Houston-raised rapper admitted. It’s a beautiful thing to have someone like Lizzo for women younger and, more seasoned, to look up to. The December 2019 issue of British Vogue will hit newsstands on Friday, Nov. 8.

Source: VCG / Getty Will Smith Vlogs His First Colonoscopy Will Smith is not concerned with being the butt of your jokes. His only concern is his butt health, something all of us should be monitoring after a certain age. Our own butts, not his. Anywho, Will takes his vlog into a very intimate space as he consults his doctor about having his first colonoscopy at the tender age of 50. Press play get into Will’s backside biology. All jokes aside, on some real s#!t, please get your colon checked out when you reach the appropriate age. Cancer is taking us out way too early.

Source: GETTY / Getty Joe Budden’s Love Triangle If you saw the brand new Love & Hip-Hop: New York trailer then you saw a cast full of drama and potentials for a truly explosive season. Of course you saw that Chrissy and Kimbella are going to be on the show together. But that’s not it. We also know now that Tahiry and Cyn Santana are going to both be on this season together. What is their connection? Well, they both obviously dated Joe Budden for a long time. Joe proposed to Tahiry at Times Square a few years ago and got straight up denied. Then he popped up with Cyn, engaged, living together and expecting. Now they are all three going to be running around together. Oh, you need a refresher of what Joe will be looking at?
