Back in 2006 (?) I had dinner with my aunt (in Missouri). She knew I was a Beyonce fan and she couldn't wait to tell me this story about her friend from college. I think they were roommates in the dorm? After college, her friend moved to Houston to become a police officer. Houston, as you know, is Beyonce's hometown. Well, in the early/mid-2000's, someone robbed Matthew Knowles home and stole several tapes of young Beyonce performing. But my aunt's friend, the police officer, was the one who tracked down the thief and recovered the tapes for Beyonce & Matthew. And then ----- as a way to say thank you, Beyonce and Matthew took the police officer out to dinner! The officer said that Beyonce was one of the sweetest and most genuine people she had ever met. I'll never forget this story. Especially as I watch Beyonce's "Formation" era and all the police brutality situations play out in the media. Obviously, Beyonce is a warrior against police brutality against black lives. And she will use her voice endlessly for justice for black lives. But she is not anti-police. She is ultimately a supporter of peace and justice for every one. God bless Bey! Thank you! I’m a simple guy to please, if you like Melodrama, we chill.

MichelMonster 343 Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Didnt she call for action just yesterday ? I dont remember her being so vocal about politics in past - even when hyper-medialized cases like Ferguson happened. But I will give her the benefit of the doubt and say this is not only because her new "pro-black" era has just started. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does this not sound like something Beyonce would say? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rewind to the year 2000.... a teenage Beyonce and Destiny's Child release a single about female empowerment, about financial independence from men and their parents, about social justice for females. It becomes a worldwide #1. It spent ***11 weeks*** at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. But it's not political. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone with half a clue about Beyonce's real persona can read right between the lines of her IG account and know it's not her creating the output. But, can you blame her? She's worth way too much money to leave something as important as IG to chance. She has people for that. Good on her for it. I wish I had people running mine, LOL.
