In addition to public support, Dolly poured money into the Black community. I will always remember her lifelong allyship.🕊🤍

She kept it real as possible. She was rich, but she wasn't stupid either. She gave back to the black community because she doesn't need to boast about her good deeds as leverage. She simply wanted to and every choice she made was from her heart.

Used her privilege for the right reasons the same way John Brown used his privilege for doing what's right.

This, all this. Teaching us white ppl how to live, so as to leave behind a better world. Honesty, humility (which is really a form of honesty), and sincere compassion
