    She did industrial videos such as these partly to avoid having to accept the trash Hollywood was offering her. She was always about integrity.
  • @rijoyce8996
    At 64, she was putting some 20, 30 and 40 year olds to shame!!! She was the epitome of class, style and grace. What a woman, a queen, and a treasure! 🤦🏾‍♀️🙏🏾✨❤️
  • @Jossette888
    My goodness! Cicely was 64 years young in 1988, she looks so much younger!!!!

    I’m an English professor, and I am 1,000% adding this to my curriculum! They’ll be learning about the 5 Cs…The last for Cicely!
  • @Paradyce.A-CEO
    My English teacher used to tell me to keep all of my rough drafts when writing because it held all of my original thoughts. We could not throw away our rough drafts , it was a rule in her class 💗
  • @kseke25
    "4 C's: Clear, correct, concise, and complete. A: for appropriate in style." Great lesson!
  • @IanJames_4
    64 going on 34. The epitome of poise and style. Rest in peace Cicely Tyson.
  • @boomerang905
    She was 60 something then but looks 30 something. Amazing and pretty.

    This is invaluable. In my opinion, people's intelligence has dropped 70%. Education is wonderful. Thank you Reelblack.

    I have learned and understood more in the first 20 minutes than the entire first semester of my writing course at uni.
  • @plmitch

  • @jaym8300
    I have no clue how I ended up here but alas I’m here and this is so wholesome

    "Just get it down" is honestly the best writing advice. Getting started tends to be the hardest part. Don't over think it at first, just write it down and work from there.
  • Cicely Tyson aged like fine wine. Black don't crack or fade. Crazy how she was so beautiful that ppl would've never thought she was older than she looked. I had the biggest crush on her after seeing the movie Busting Loose. Such a gorgeous black woman.

  • @StaceysYouTube
    She was exquisitely well spoken. A woman of class and elegance.
