I just looked up people who died, and when I saw her, I was shocked. She will always be remembered. #RIPToniMorrison
Thank god that Toni Morrison is dead!
She will be missed
RIP Ms. Toni Morrison. Love your writings and speaking voice.
As Ms. Chloe Wafford Toni Morrison ascended to the heavenly hemisphere, I surmised she have joined the ancestors laughing, joking, and rejoining with kinfolks. However- Morrsion will be immensely missed for her prolific genius writings, saged asture wisdom, her conscience voice on celebrating Black folks and moral cognizance for America and the international community. Morrison emerged as my favorite Black female writer and author novelist. She had a impeccable splendid way of employing the economy of laguage to spin, twist, formulate interesting Black characters, plots, settings evoking the reader to critical think. Sometimes at the expense of rereading sentences, paragragh, or the entire book to comprehend what she was asserting similar to working a challenging word puzzle or chess. Or- like a layered velvet layered cake with a myriad of dimensions compelling the reader to logically analyze, contemplate, and process all the elements that she used as a mavern story teller or elderly griot. As the South African bid farewell to love ones……… Baba Toni Morrison…..go well! P.S. My favorite novels of Morrison was : " God Help The Child" , " Mercy", " Bluest Eyes" , " Tar Baby", " Song of Solomon", " Home. " I could not read " Beloved" because it was too painful for me; however, the 🎥 movie " Beloved" was phenomenal with some superb dymatic actors and actresses. My mother and Upward Bound College Summer Program introduce me to Ms. Toni Morrison. [ " Tar Baby"- I initially did not like this book. And- ascertained Morrison to be too difficult to comprehend and read. As an adult, my literary passion had flourished; I re-read Tar Baby and others. And- gained a deeper comprehension of what she was really saying. ] 🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈😢

Good riddance!that lady has fostered an anti black male narrative in all of her novels.She was no friend of black people particularly black male.No wonder so many white people loved her like Hillary and Bill Clinton.
NEVER HEARD OF HER
Rest well
A beautiful, Intelligent lady. Thank you for your literary contributions. Rest in eternal peace.
She made all sorts of racist anti-white comments over the years … not surprised that Obama gave an award to someone who hates white people. Birds of a feather.
My favorite author 😢 I remember discovering her books in my High School library in the 10th grade…. I fell head over heels in love with her books! Her mind was one of a kind, the words would draw you in and I have been obsessed with her work since! I will forever Cherish her work ….Rest well Queen..we have received your seeds of inspiration🌺
He reminds me of Dan Rather. ❤️
Wow
SHE WAS A SYSTEM REINFORCING NEGRO WHO HATED BLACK MEN.
